    Ethics of cooperative and sentient creatures capable of choosing between opportunities, must develop both objective morality (ethics of ‘natural law’) and group competitive ethics (moral norms), and individual competitive ethics (personal moral judgements). The principle conflicts in the study of manners, ethics, morality, and group evolutionary strategy (law of cooperation), are caused by (a) differences in male and female reproductive strategy, (b) differences in the desirability of the classes (associative, reproductive, economic, political, and military), and (c) differences in distributions of abilities between groups (tribes), and (d) necessities of territorial adaptation. Ergo while ethics(and morals) are objectively decidable across any group, because objectively decidable ethics exist, individuals, groups, and very large groups each construct portfolios of more complex normative and personal ethics(morals) so that they can successfully compete against other peers, genders, classes, tribes, nations, and civilizations. This does not mean that we cannot say one civilization’s nation’s, tribe’s, class’, gender’s person’s are decidability more moral than another’s. But then, these things we call ethics (morals) are tools of evolution. And both prey, parasite, and predator exist between organisms in nature, and prey, parasite and predator exist within organisms as well.

    FUNCTION OF NATURAL LAW

    —“Natural Law provides measures and operations across normative and formal institutions for decidability.”— Bill Joslin

    Natural law provides individuals, jurors, and jurists with a method of commensurability, and therefore a method of decidability, between differing personal, normative, and formal judgements of reciprocity, similar to how money provides commensurability in the form of prices, volume provides commensurability between shapes, and unitary distances commensurability between spaces, and natural numbers between quantities.

  • THE DECIDABILITY OF NATURAL LAW 1) Man -> Biological Necessity – biological inst

    THE DECIDABILITY OF NATURAL LAW

    1) Man -> Biological Necessity – biological instinct for reciprocity (positive-purchase of options on future cooperation, neutral-exchange of cooperation, and negative-retaliatory at high expense, for violation of reciprocity.) This is ‘objective morality: natural law.

    2) Normative Institutions -> man evolves normative institutions that we call ‘morals’. These morals vary from group to group because each group constructs various ‘contracts’ (habits) that we call norms, on top of objective morality. These habits attempt to construct a market of sorts suitable for the solution of certain cultural, demographic, and geographic problems. (marriage and inheritance habits being the easiest examples to study). Property rights evolved in concert with (a) division of labor and development of tools, built capital and territorial property, (b) inheritance of those assets, and (c) tribal, clan, village, extended family, family, and absolute nuclear family structures. ( Private property increases with class (independence).)

    3) Formal Institutions -> the formal standardization (think of property rights registered in law as a standardization of weights and measures that facilitate the ‘fit’ of cooperation and the means of dispute resolution upon the failure of cooperation.

    4) Logical Decidability -> the method of commensurability by reduction to natural law, when formal law fails, or normative morality fails, because of differences in local contractual assumptions. In other words, natural law provides a means of commensurability across normative and formal institutional contracts, just as the natural common law provides a standard of decidability between private contracts.
