such as animal, nation, beauty, circle, were held to be mere names, hence
the term nominalism. For example, the name 'circle' is applied to things
that are round and is thus a general designation, but no concrete identity
with a separate essence of roundness exists corresponding to the name.
The nominalistic doctrine is opposed to the philosophical theory called
extreme realism, according to which
universals have a real and independent existence prior to and apart from
particular
objects."....Microsoft®

Nerva, Marcus Cocceius
(about 35-98 A.D.),
Roman emperor (96-98 A.D.), known as the first of the so-called
good emperors. He was born in Narnia, Umbria, to parents of senatorial
rank. He was twice consul, in 71 with the emperor Vespasian as colleague
and in 90 with the emperor Domitian as colleague. When Domitian was assassinated
in 96, Nerva was elected emperor by the Senate, reflecting the choice both
of the people and of the soldiers. As an emperor Nerva displayed great
wisdom and moderation. The activities of the informers who had flourished
under Domitian were checked. Nerva chose senators as his councillors and
allowed the Senate to perform its traditional functions. He attempted to
reduce the costs of government. Being interested in the economic welfare
of his country, he had the Senate pass an agrarian law that provided for
the purchase of land for poor citizens. Even more effective was his legislation
to maintain the children of poor parents in the towns of Italy at public
expense. Because of his advanced age and feeble health, Nerva was not vigorous
enough to repress the demands of the Praetorian Guard, who had favored
his predecessor and insisted on the execution of the assassins of Domitian,
retained in office by Nerva. Wishing to place the government in strong
hands, Nerva adopted as his son and successor Marcus Ulpius Trajanus, usually
known as Trajan, who was then in command of the Roman legions on the Rhine
River. Nerva ruled for three months with Trajan, who then succeeded him.....comprised

natural law.noun
a law or body of laws that derives from nature
(means, derived from the Creator)
and is binding upon human actions and no other laws are then needed, period!
Society has set up Common Law based on Natural
Law, but it's not needed in addition to Natural Law. Examples.
Dr. John
Hagelin on Natural Law.
Natural Law:
The only actual law we need is to do good to others being careful not to
do any hurt and harm:.Matthew
22:36-40.
Do unto others what you would
have them do unto you and don't do unto others what you would not have
them do unto you, is the primary.multiversal.law
for all sentient beings.
The Greeks saw that people
could recognize actions as inherently
lawful or unlawful, without need of politicians
and their bureaucrats telling
us. The Greeks had lived through some excellent examples of lawless states.
They came out with an answer quite amazing.
Aristotle
believed each kind of animal has a special nature. They all know or discover
what they need to do in order to lead the life that they are physically
fitted to live and integrate with each other. Humans too are naturally
capable of knowing how to live together and do business with each other
without killing each other.
The so-called 'Wild West'
which history shows was not nearly as wild as many modern cities with strict
gun control, existed beyond the reach of state power. People possessed
the right of property and businesses functioned. (Kopel, 323 -373)
Natural law follows from
the nature of men. We have the right to life, liberty and property, the
right to defend ourselves against those who would rob, enslave or kill
us. We have inalienable rights
from the Creator-Father.
The law of love derives from
our Creator-Father, the one true and only God of all life, light, love,
compassion and creation and includes our right to ourselves and our property,
not from the power of the state. Those in the law of love have God on their
side, that is, have God's mind in all they think about and may do.
Natural Law comes from each
person being intuitive enough to
sense the order in the universe that surrounds them.
Einstein
did not create general relativity, nor did Newton create the law of gravity,
nor does anyone create natural law. These things are discovered, then used
by humanity. It just is there, proven by its ability to affect those who
comprehend
it and those being affected by it who may not mentally grasp it yet. There
are many natural laws universally applicable to all humanity.
Natural law was taught in
the great Universities of Oxford, Salamanca, Prague and Krakow and in many
other places. In England the theory of natural law led to the
Magna Carta, the Glorious Revolution, the declaration of right and
the English Enlightenment. It was the basis for the revolution in the U.S.
and its bill of rights.
It is everyone's right and duty to forcibly uphold natural law. In order
to get a law enforced or to get away with enforcing it oneself, one's lawyer
had to argue natural law, rather than corporate
contrived law, such as Maritime/Admiralty,
also called Civil/Statute law. These cabal
designed laws are so far below (how low can you go?) Natural Law, they
have nothing in common. Thus the Netherlands came to be governed predominantly
by Natural Law, rather than by men or by corporate law and its fraudulent
language. From the right to self defense comes the right to the rule
of law, but from the right to property comes a multitude of like rights,
such as the right to privacy "One's home is his castle" is a well known
saying. Further,
John Locke
repeatedly, in ringing words, reminded us that a ruler is legitimate so
far as he upholds the laws people have determined that all should live
by. Otherwise they were to be removed from their office.
A ruler that violates Natural
Law is illegitimate. He has
no right to be obeyed. His commands are mere force and coercion.
Rulers who act lawlessly, disregarding Natural Law, are those whose edicts
are truly unlawful. They are mere
criminalsa and scourges on societies
and should be dealt quickly and harshly with.
