True Justice

The 'Golden Rule' is an eternal principle for all mankind.* Righteousness cannot exist without the presence of justice** Universal fairness and respect are required for human coexistence Evil expresses itself in the form of power hunger for control of others. Juries are often utilized to render justice to individual citizens Unjust judges and the entire justice system can be an evil stench Statutory laws can be designed and passed for purposes of 'the select' Tolerance must exist for the weak, the aged, the handicapped, and the poor Independence that excludes, breeds corruption and disunity among men Communities become strong by bonds of equality, unity, and understanding Equality under the law is the least any society should require of its existence 12192018PoSoupContest, Justice, Carolyn Devonshire * So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the Law and the Prophets.
