”I am wondering what principles you are willing to commit to and in what form you make a commitment. My own conviction is that all established avenues of commitment are managed by the powers that be to work to their advantage to maintain this corrupt 2 party system that you speak of.”

It is a fairly simple matter to identify human principle or to find commonly accepted code of human principle. Regardless of the source, most that have passed the test of time are sound and in common with other sources.

To start this strand of discussion can we agree that there is a body of human principle wherein most reasonable people support certain ideas as good for human beings and certain others are not good. Greed, vice, and corruption are rarely promoted as good attributes of human beings for example; whereas Health, generosity, and wisdom are generally accepted as good attributes of being human, etc. etc. etc.

In attempting to give homage to the function of human principle, we are bound with the very paradox of human condition that has existed time immemorial. That is, if there are easily identifiable principles to live by, why are we faced with such conflict everywhere we look in life?

This is partly because we cannot put circumstantial existence into code. While in principle the world of human condition has not changed our circumstance is constantly changing, full of mystery and challenge.
