More From Rose Macaulay

Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people. it's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable; laws that deny people the right to refuse protection. a survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.

Afghanistan has always been sort of a fractured nation, very tribal, where the countryside and the distant provinces have been run by custom, by tribal law and by tribal leaders rather than edicts from the central government in kabul.

Basically, we are pack animals. we may be evolving toward hive animals. the nature of the pack is that if all the eyes of the pack are on you, you are either the leader, or you are lunch. so it's a basically hazardous situation to have the eyes of the pack upon you. and i think that's really visceral. i think that's bred in the bone. that's species - deep.

A significant number of people believe tribal people still live and dress as they did 300 years ago. during my tenure as principal chief of the cherokee nation, national news agencies requesting interviews sometimes asked if they could film a tribal dance or if i would wear traditional tribal clothing for the interview. i doubt they asked the president of the united states to dress like a pilgrim for an interview.

Perhaps, you know, new laws, new domains of potential openness are occurring as the universe ages, and complexity previously disallowed is now possible, and we are that complexity. we are nature moving out of its genetic phase - a phase under the control of chemical genes, which are physical structures, in to an epigenetic phase, a phase of culture ruled by codes, transformable culturally confined codes - mathematics, religion, philosophy, art, dance, humor.

Well, there's a bright side to this for ken lay. you know, throughout the years ken lay has been a big campaign contributor to the republican party. so now, he'll be able to meet with those same people when he goes to prison.
