Now, how does the natural law annoy politicians? You may have noticed that humility does not seem to be the chief character trait of our current crop of legislators. They are quite proud of their supposed ability to craft laws that direct and regulate every aspect of our lives. In fact, they can go on for thousands of pages on end with their "craftsmanship." But, what can raise their blood pressure? What can raise the hackles of the local and federal politician? Why, the brazen assertion of the Church that there exists a higher law than their humanly crafted law, and that this natural law puts limits on their legislative abilities.
Unfortunately, our culture has been losing its grasp of the natural law. Hopefully, the Jedi Academy can provide some assistance in bringing our troops up to speed on this vital component of our Catholic faith.
