    Hegel compared the society with a carriage wheel (like one on the picture) . the sticks in the wheel represent then the state of development of the society in fields/areas as: technology, science, political system, philosophy, ethics, justice system...all these must be of the same length for the wheel to roll evenly. If one or more areas/sticks get significantly different size/stadium of development the wheel will stop running smoothly until the sticks are evenly long again. In this time the technology and science stick became much longer (developed) than the ethics and justice system sticks....we have got highly developed technology eg internet (or genetics) which doesn't compare to our development level of ethics en justice...

    until the Hegelian wheel is corrected we will not agree on many issues...

    So?
    If I compare society to a crocodile does that mean I'm correct in that comparison?

    Yet another assumption. Maybe ethics (or science, or technology) should really be "twice as long" as all the other "spokes".

    Yeah, what you really mean is that some people will use the available technology unethically and steal/ misappropriate others' work.

    Until you can prove that Hegel was making a thoroughly valid comparison then he was just talking out of his arse. It was a simile, for illustrative purposes.

    I note that you consistently fail to actually reply to (much less refute) my previous posts and simply ramble on regardless.
    Salving your conscience with spurious self-justification, maybe?

    Have you noticed the preamble of this forum?

    random ideas, thoughts, trivialities

    If you expect/prefer higher level of answer to you posts please post these at higher level boards...

    This is still a discussion board. You either include yourself in the discussion or you forfeit the thread.

    This is not the kind of attitude one would expect from someone that wishes to discuss something.

    Well I answered all remarks to the point I found adequate. You cannot please all the people all the time...

    Although I think some of ProCop's ideas are rather dreamy, I like that he dares to dream outside the box.
