brees - Your list of goals seems appropriate enough. Your definition of justice is utopian and impossible to achieve when civilization consists of anything more than a few people.

Nature has no innate equality among living things - only balances arrived at with influences from many, sometimes only distantly related sources. Our human sentience allows us to reintroduce the concept of personal equality that overrides physical prowess and also places us at the pinnacle of life forms on the earth.

Natural justice is often swift and sure. Human justice is sometimes barbaric, and in some cases, unaccomplished due to weakness.

Our country's system appears to have reached a balance that allows us some modicum of personal freedom while protecting most of us from the abuses of those who would harm us.
