Too many laws and we have tyranny and chaos. Which extreme are we closer to today? In which direction are we headed?

We must have laws or society will plummet into chaos.

>> We must have laws or society will plummet into chaos <<

you have something against the people making the law? of course in our country that often means through their elected representatives.

>> Everyone feels their own beliefs should predominate <<

yes, that is why we vote.

>> therefore we need a final word in order to maintain order. <<

well we don't need a supreme court then, we simply need a king. his word can be final. would you like that? probably not.
