The 4th virtue

Justice and power in correlation…

The Goal - Magnanimity

The magnaminous person. ⬇️

Aristotle considers magnanimity to be the greatest virtue. It is concerned with high honors above and beyond what is possible for the average person. This is similar to the virtue magnificence (megaloprepeia) found in the preceding chapter (NE IV. 2), which is concerned with large - scale generosity.

Virtue 4- Justice 

Justice Builds nations because it builds order.

All things are justifiable by whom and by what though?

This is why America Began its justice system based off of the bible and gods rule.

The founding fathers may have not found any law to live by which was better than what they saw that would be other than the laws in the bible.

Foundation is incredibly important, the foundation is the origin.

Anything that falls down on top of the foundation is either a crack in the foundation or that faultiness of material use to build off of that foundation.

A warped foundation always carries a warped house.

Correct the material or correct the cornerstone.

[Justice] Under god.

Understand the foundation in which a nation is built.

Equity over equality in all contingents of people.

All that was written above this is knowledge everyone knows, it is simply a common sense.

But what is the cause of justice?

What in our minds within our minds caused the desire for order.

The traits of human nature may desire rules and order.

Some in strict confines and others in relative boundaries.

The desire for order (Justice) stems from the desire for power.

Those who state the rule know best the rule.

Not only that but they also have the most power to change the rule.

Power abused is power fallen, be wary.

Everyone has a search for power through the means of justice.

Could justice be a selfish intention?

Is it justifiable that all laws apply to all people?

All people.

You may say, “yes”.

But then what if you were in power?

Would you try to reach the means of justice when you have already achieved power?

The root of justice is the desire for power.

But justice and power is not innately a bad thing.

They’re subjective to one another.

The subject which justice and power is used is normally defined by an outlook.

The way a person sees.

You can find that the selfless outlook orientates justice to be decided by the multitude.

That type of outlook or person understands that what they see may be correct.

Put in consideration for all defects of your own vision.

The blindsides.

Every outlook has a truth and a lie to it. Many outlooks combined are many insights combined.

Have consideration for all outlooks, try to prove and disprove the realism of each outlook.

The major problem is knowing if oneself’s outlook is well correlated with the truth.

Become the melting pot in what and how you see.

See not with the eyes but with the mind; see with understanding.

Consider this, I speak from only a few outlooks.

Try to disprove it with reason.

Justice is Truth in action.
