章节摘录

插图：Appeal to natural, or higher, law provides a justification for civil disobedience.For example, if one's conscience tells one that war is morally wrong, then one hasa moral obligation not only to resist induction into the military, but also to commitovert acts of civil disobedience in order to raise the consciousness of the communityabout the evils of war. It was by appealing to the conscience of society thatMahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr., were able to make both those inauthority and the general public see the immorality of colonialism and segregation.Proponents of animal rights have attempted to make the question of treatment ofanimals, especially during laboratory tests for drugs and cosmetics, into a moralissue that justifies admittedly illegal behavior such as sit-ins and breaking intofacilities to release animals. Invoking this higher law is one way in which a minoritycan hope to convince the majority to change its mind by appealing to the majority'ssense of morality.A discussion of natural law inevitably leads to the question of whether it ispossible to "legislate morality". If by legislating morality it is meant that law canchange a person's values, then law obviously cannot legislate morality. A lawprohibiting gambling is unlikely to prevent someone who sees nothing wrong with itfrom betting on the Super Bowl6. In such a case the law has altered neither theperson's values nor his or her behavior. Among those persons who choose not togamble are those who refrain from doing so out of fear of punishment rather than aconviction that gambling is "immoral".
