To add to this thought, one day when I was reflecting on some reading I had just done about people who get abducted by aliens that then seemingly hurt them, I thought, Oo, I wonder if my guides would protect me if these aliens abducted me! At which point a spirit message clearly interupted my thought process saying, emphatically, You would protect yourself. All things [of this realm] are consensual.

In essence all is consensual as an individual will choose based on knowledge/awareness or lack there-of.

I suppose that it would be up to the violator to admit to doing it consciously, and hopefully wish to pay restitution. But if not, then it would be up to a judge/jury to decide. It would be great if there were people who could simply divine the truth. Or even better if all the citizens would be taught and accept the concept of responsibility as part of their upbringing and societal structure.


Would you really need a judge/jury? Then what - police and jails? Teaching could be ok, but if it were a case of the way in which the people must or are expected to act, are we not back to either/or indoctrination and conformity?

Do you not recall (assuming it is true for the moment) universal balance?

An analogy of how I see people responsibly coexisting is like cells in a body. Each cell has its function and its boundaries. Not enough resources starve the cell, and too many drown it. Also, one cell should not impede upon another cell. It should work within its boundaries and limitation and should expect that its boundaries are also respected.

What determines this "should" or how might it come about?

I meant that an ideal society behaves like physical cells behave when they are efficient and balanced. That's the analogy I was making. They stay within their own boundaries, do their intended job, and they seem to be regulated with the right amount of nutrients and a good flow, etc. dunno


Yes I am merely looking at the "should" part - what might determine why or how an individual works or behaves in this manner...
