LAWS

KInd of stupid question. Do you mean in the whole world, or just one country? Given the dumbness of the question, I'll take a guess that you are American. The answer is "lots".

How many is "lots"?

=

I'll take a guess that you are a snooty French person.

there is only one law

An it harm none, do what thou wilt

...and you'd be wrong.

Damn ... no bonus points.

I'm English, and we hate Americans much more than the French do.

I'm American, and we hate the French much more than the English.

But in your case I'll make an exception.

We can count the nearly 7 billion people on the planet,
Can we count the number of laws we have made?

=

Assuming it is theoretically possible to do that ... why would we do that?

I don't hate and I know some Americans that don't hate either..

You did appreciate that I at least was being facetious?

I know your facetiousness, Contrex.

You may have noted that I'm a pince sans rire myself, sometimes..

My middle name is facetious.

Perhaps only show how far away from freedom mankind has gone.

=

Freedom is inversely proportional to the number of laws?

I didn't realize everyone was free in the lawless areas of the world.

Somalia may have the most freedom, it seems.

Laws?

How many laws have we written that restrict our freedom; can they even be counted? Do the justices know how many; do they even know what all the laws mean? Doesn't just mean equality; and equality freedom? Are laws just or unjust? Why do we freely elect law makers to write more laws; don’t we have enough? Do we need to be governed or ruled; shouldn't we be voting for freedom? Have we been taught to fear our own free will; without laws there would be chaos; is that true? Do you need laws to live by? Who wrote the first law; and what was it? Who took away our freedom, our free will? Who will write the last law and give our freedom back? And…is there such a thing as natural law Professor Newton; or did the apple really or truly fall freely from the tree? Is the answer quantum mechanical, is it God's rules? Is God a ruler; is God free? Isn’t the universe just; isn't it equally free? I think it is; but why aren’t we?
