[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 6119652, member: 4937"] It's worth noting I'm not using either one in exactly that meaning. In general, the one word summaries would be: Good = Construction Evil = Destruction Law = Other Chaos = Self Nuetrality = Passivity A sphere of annihiliation is therefore an expression of purest evil - the universe eating itself until it is empty, void, and gone and then eating even that until even absence is gone and there is and never has been anything. Chaos is the expression of individuality, uniqueness, variation, violition, freedom and accountability to self. It insists that all meaning is internal to the thing itself. It wants a world where objects fall not because they are acted on by an outside force, but because they have 'fallingness' inherent to their being. It's a world where things aren't red because of light falling upon them, but because redness is part of their being. It's world where the Newtonian principle of what is true here must be true throughout the universe doesn't apply because truth (to the extent any such thing exists at all) is a quality of the thing itself and distinct to itself. Everything is relative and nothing is related (save by choice). Randomness is in this conception not something chaos sees in itself, but a judgment being passed on it by someone from a lawful perspective - the trivialization of the most essential and valuable nature of the universe by someone that doesn't understand it. Law is the opposite. The expression of connectivity, uniformity, predictability, duty, and accountability to others. It insists that all meaning is external. Things only have meaning in relationship to other things. The solitary thing has no meaningful traits, all of its essential nature is seen through interaction. Everything is related and nothing is relative. No atom is an island unto itself. [/QUOTE]
