During a debate between Christopher Hitchens and Dinesh D'souza; D'souza made a remark that made me think about the tenants of the laws of nature. Poorly paraphrased, he likened the human to a rock, and then said the rock obeys the laws of nature by sitting and doing as stones do. Then he remarked, the human conscience transcends these laws of nature that the rock obeys. Deconstruction of this argument was fairly easy, and I wrote it off and assumed it was an insipid argument for that only god could give us conscience. But, the idea sprang allot of thoughts as I walked campus trolling for skirt. And to this I have written numerous pages of why conscience in humans cannot transcend laws of nature. Ideas stolen from Tomas Paine to Nietzsche to Greek ideals of hubris. I'm Just throwing this out here to see if I can get and new ideas. Or if anyone has some reading material I should check out.
