[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 1116116, member: 115"] Verily. Alignment is very poor at modelling real-world situations. In terms of a Christian setting, that would generally be true. But a LG person who comes from a bonobo-like society wouldn't necessarily view it like that. Even someone from a Christian setting might not view it like that, if they didn't believe in it. I guess, for me, it comes down to the idea that "lawful" people are generally true to their word (be it evil or good); draw strength from their beliefs; organized in mind, body, and spirit; and most importantly keep to what they know. Whereas neutral people don't really tend toward one or the other (which is why the example above to me really is more NG), and chaotic people are generally the opposite - will lie or tell truth at a whim; draw strength from experience; rather disorganized in all aspects of life; and generally are always doubting and trying new things.
