Law and Error

Blind law is a concept of law that in practice is decided upon by fallible human beings, presuming themselves as blind to errors, when in fact they make decisions as prone to error as a law biased on what it prefers to see or happen. This fallibility despite claims of unbiased ruling disqualifies the law from condemning any person to death on whatever crime. A person who is not immune to wrongdoing has no moral right to condemn others to death even in the name of the rule of law. Let those who have no sin throw the first stone. 

Prejudice

We look at people, things, events, and situations in our lives with sets of lenses that color the way we interact with life. The darker these lenses are the more removed we become from the truths that can enhance the depth and breadth of our lives. Until we remove the darkness in these lenses, good things will appear foreboding and deceptive things become very convincing. And all of life becomes a lie.
