John Stuart Mill stated the concept if not the exact words two centuries ago. Yet the idea is sound. When good people stand by and let the worst of human nature progress, then the worst is on all of us. I am at a point where the means that justify the ends are all encompassing when it comes to stopping the momentum of evil. We, each of us has to ask ourselves what are we willing to do in order to put right the wrongs that are obvious and unrelenting. Those of us with a conscience anyway. The psycho/sociopathic notwithstanding. What are we each willing to do to help the cause of humanity?
As the decay and rot of forces that are in control continue to flourish and devastate what are we the people to do? There must be a plan for doing something even when that something is beyond the scope of our simple understanding of the rule of law. No one wants to exist in a world where chaos and uncertainty is the basis for a foundation. Instead we need to create a hope for a change that regardless of method is necessary to avoid an even greater injustice. When the danger is no more then the normalcy of ethical logic within jurisprudence can lead us to a more critical knowing of the science of law. When we each know the sacrifice needed to keep and maintain a just society is when we all truly become one within it.
In the meantime we are now in a dilemma. What is our response to the end of our dilemma and what shape and form will that response take? That is the unknown at the moment but in some amount of time we will know it. There is an unease among us that will bring about an end and our own tolerance to pain and suffering will ignite that ultimate response. I say that there is nothing off the table when it comes to survival. We each have our own breaking points as to how we are activated to move beyond doing nothing toward doing something. We will soon be at that point where the will of the one will be greater than the will of the other. Here is me rooting for the people.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
