Society is based on the learned knowledge of our fore-fathers. It was their experience, knowledge and accomplishments that brought our society into being and that is reason enough to never question how or why we are here. We are obligated to them, to continue on with their insightful plans. To question current society, or government, is to invite public chaos. Our leaders are just that – our leaders – and it is an insult to suggest that a simple public can effect positive change or have the knowledge to question the will of leaders. Our government should remain rooted in the teachings of our past to lead us into the future in a strong and singular path toward greatness.
The British constitution is a universal standard for a great society. But it was not the British Parliament that made this pre-eminent set of societal rules – it was God. All government personnel must know that they are simply acting in trust for the one great master, the founder of society – God. And just as God created society, God demands that we live our lives in a manner suitable to His will. As I have written, “Civil society is an institution of beneficence” and the law of society is only the means of justice to be used toward beneficence.
Civil society must have laws to allow man to find justice and to allow man to reach his ultimate salvation before God. As I have said, “Civil society as it ought to be” is one that restrains man’s arbitrary impulses through laws, but still allows some freedom of action. This leads to my stated position that “the quest for government as it ought to be” requires a “deep knowledge of human nature”. This requires both intellectual direction and moral direction.
A good leader has the will to preserve what is learned from the past, and an ability to improve it.
