I am a very long way from understanding what just this is. I have always been of the Isaiah Berlin view. Isaiah Berlin is one of my favorite philosophers and his view in a nutshell, who lowers some of how they guess what that was. If you know for sure what justice is, you are probably going to start killing people next.
His views is the most of the misery in the worlds history has come because someone has taught that they know the single truth, or the truth in the face of which all of the truths must fall. They can be single religious truth, single ethnic or cultural truth, it could be a single ideological truth. One you know of a one thing that is the most important thing the one crystal truth. His fear, that was when you start letting all the ordinary barriers that will keep us from doing terrible things, fall because you want to do that terrible thing. So I am a long way from acclaim that I know what justice is. A part of me simply wants us to follow the golden rule love the neighbor, and I guess most people would endorse that but its often hard sometimes to figure out what love is and its awfully hard to figure what the neighbor is and because of those difficulties
I am a great believer in being modest in our claim or force for the people to do. In fact one of the things that confuses me and scares me about politics today in United States and much of the world is that so much of the political debate is what should we force people to do or should prohibit them from doing? Does this travel on the left and the right light as if driving this on a force to prohibit and I do not have sufficient powerful sense of my own righteousness to be able to think first and foremost to what I should force people to do. I have to think first and foremost about how I am supposed to live myself. My own life and what I am supposed to do is encourage others and to inspire them rather to forbid them or to force them.
