The peace game

[Professur]

Here's something for you to try with your friends (you do have some friends, don't you?)

Place the following three in their order of importance to you.

Peace
Freedom
Justice

Enjoy.

 

[Gonz]

Freedom, justice, peace

Without the first two, the third cannot exist.

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

Good question Prof

Justice, freedom, peace

 

[Professur]

Thanks, but I only borrowed it from Lowell Green.

 

[PT]

PEACE, PEACE, PEACE.































Ok, j/k.

Have to agree with Hex, Justice comes first.

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

Thought for sure i'd be the only one to pick that one.

 

[Luis G]

justice, peace, freedom

 

[chcr]

Freedom, justice, peace

I guess I just knotted it up. Good question though. Looks like so far we're just split on whether justice comes before freedom or after, hmmm?

 

[Luis G]

imo, there can be no freedom if there's no justice and therefore peace.

your freedom ends where your significant other's rights begins.

 

[Aunty Em]

freedom, peace, justice...

... just felt like being different.

 

[Luis G]

you're just moi mirror

 

[Gonz]

Without Freedom there can be no justice. Without justice peace is unattainable.

 

[Luis G]

so basically it all ends in questioning.

is justice a product of freedom or freedom is a product of justice?

 

[Gonz]

That's the game it seems. Without one, the other can't exist. Chicken& the egg paradox.

 

[Luis G]

and why nobody questions the priority of peace?

 

[Gonz]

How would peace be possible without justice and/or freedom?

 

[Gonz]

Is the definition of peace, lack of aggression or true security?

 

[freako104]

for me its freedom peace justice

 

[StuTheWise]

Here's my take:

Peace without freedom or justice is possible. Imagine being locked in a dark, soundless room that is 10x10x10 feet.

You've got peace, but no freedom or justice.

For you Old Testament fans, this was the plan of Lucifer. No freedom... but peace, sure, because we would all be forced to obey him (Lucifer) to ensure our return to heaven. No war, no killing, no coveting thy neighbor's wife, no injustices... no freedom.

So we could be FORCED to live peacefully... but that takes away your freedom and justice both. And I would also agree that you cannot have justice without freedom.

I don't feel that we can be forced to live justly the same way we can be forced to live peacefully. Because by being forced, you take away freedom which is, in my opinion, unjust.

So I suppose that I would go:

Freedom, Justice, Peace
