More on Human ABILITY to REASON, Human RIGHT to CONSENT - Proem & Poem No. 152

Most likely to be published later this spring/summer of 2020, my 11th book entitled appropriately; More Proems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters. The following will probably be included upon further editing, and front cover a slightly modified yet appropriate version of the previous....


PROEM & POEM No. 152 - John Locke and Francis Schaeffer / Part 6


      What is covetousness if not one desiring something other than what he/she would be, do and/or have per his/her own ability and resource, subsequently digressing into presumptuous persistence then arrogant insistence to force upon others violating their preferences hence properties, possessions even persons so to effectuate of course what one covets to be, do and/or have.

      What is covetousness if not one desiring an existence, condition, status, position then property, possession, preference even (a) person beyond his/her own time, space, reason, knowledge, skill, labor, resource as well physicality, psychology, propensity, personality to imagine it, understand it, innovate it, produce it, barter for it, exchange for it, negotiate it, obtain it, maintain it, defend it thus again the presumptuous persistence then arrogant insistence to force upon others violating their preferences hence properties, possessions even persons so to effectuate of course what one covets to be, do and/or have.

      And what of covetousness if not the biblical 10th commandment broken before breaking all other commandments, the theological sin committed before committing all other sins. Comparatively and universally, what of covetousness if not the logically initial disposition entertained before entertaining further hence presuming, arrogating then violating others’ dissent on any and all matters.

      As such biblically, theologically, bloodstained redemption is the particular grace shed and absolution afforded for covetousness deeply rooted in heart and soul of all. And as such logically, ethically, unrestrained deliberation for consent else uncompromised recognition of dissent are the common grace shed (if you will) hence mitigation accorded for covetousness deeply rooted in thought and mind of all.

---

As covetousness precedes all sins, likewise every injury
Thus apprised by each person per his/her priority or frippery
Ergo individually defined, each injury along the Lockean harm
As one’s own gendarme on all matters else the ethical alarm

---

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
