The Non-Absurdity Of Natural Law Defense of natural law theory and natural rights against egoist attacks by Wendy McElroy from The Freemason. http://www.zetetics.com/mac/natlaw.htm
Extractions: The Non-Absurdity of Natural Law From The Freeman, February 1998, Vol. 48, No. 2, pp.108-111 by Wendy McElroy There is an immense difference between disagreeing with a theory and considering it to be absurd. The former can be a respectful process that encourages discussion: the latter implies that anyone who holds the theory must be a fool. In vernacular language, the difference can be expressed as, 'is the other guy wrong, or is he just stupid?' Natural Law has always had vigorous opponents who believed, with the early 19th century English philosopher Jeremy Bentham, that the theory was nonsense upon stilts. Indeed, Sir Robert Filmer's Patriarcha critiques Natural Law/rights theory that existed prior to 1640. Before the turn of the 20th century, however, the accusation of absurdity was usually hurled at advocates of individual rights by those who were hostile to individualism. Or, at least, by those who wished to assign a higher priority to some other social consideration such as utilitarianism. Within the individualist tradition itself, Natural Law remained a prevailing and well regarded theory. But in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Natural Law theory came under sustained and derisive attack by those within the individualist tradition. The situation was especially contentious in the United States where individualists who espoused what Benjamin Tucker called 'society by contract' began to deride natural rights as being patently absurd. The leading wedge of ridicule was Tucker's individualist-anarchist periodical

The prosecution objects, arguing that because so much time has passed since the bombing (Rudolph, who will also eventually face trial for the fatal bombing at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, was a fugitive for over 5 years) three potential prosecution witnesses have already died.

This is the major implication of a ruling in the High Court yesterday over the sale in the UK of 'mod-chips' for the Sony Playstation. Channel Technology Sony last month won an injunction to stop the company from selling or marketing PS mod-chips. While not disputing the facts, Channel Technology argued that the mod-chip "was not 'specifically' designed to circumvent the copy-protection mechanism of the PS2 console, but also dealt with defeating the region control aspect of the same protection, and thus allowed arguably legal functions such as the use of imported games". Judge Jacob disagreed. Although extremely sceptical of Sony's claims, he ruled, according to Channel Technology's paraphrased account, that:

Other issues International humanitarian law (IHL) International humanitarian law (IHL) is the body of rules which, in wartime, protects people who are not or are no longer participating in the hostilities. Its central purpose is to limit and prevent human suffering in times of armed conflict. The rules are to be observed not only by governments and their armed forces, but also by armed opposition groups and any other parties to a conflict. The four Geneva Conventions of 1949 and their two Additional Protocols of 1977 are the principal instruments of humanitarian law. Protecting life and dignity: "No war is above international law" Jakob Kellenberger, ICRC president, says the organization unreservedly condemns indiscriminate terrorist attacks, but insists that the response to them must remain within the framework of the law. - Article published in the Financial Times (UK) on 19 May 2004 and reproduced here with the FT's kind permission.

Even if you haven't experienced any of these events since you last updated your estate plan, there may have been changes in tax laws or changes in your financial situation that necessitate a reevaluation of your estate plan.
