Justice?




I just wanted to ramble a bit about the idea of justice and good particularly in relation to Tom's own sense of it.








Now, Tom tends to view things in a very black and white way - he really divides people up and polarizes a spectrum of good and evil. Either you're with Tom, or you're against him.







Oof, you can hardly see my spectrum. Oh well.







Personally, I cannot relate at all to this sort of viewpoint. My moral spectrum is more of a web than a line with an arrow on the left pointing to good and one on the right pointing to evil.

Anyhow, Tom's sense of morality gives him a predisposition toward prejudice. He asks Philip, for instance, if he loves his father.


And oh my GOD I am upset with this computer - it disconnected from the internet, I pressed post, and the autosave hadn't saved it until this point. I'll edit this with the rest of it later. I hate my computer agh agh agh
