Natural Laws

Natural Law Theory contains four different types of law: Eternal Law, Natural Law, Human Law and Divine Law. The way to understand these four laws and how they relate to one another is via the Eternal Law.
What is the first law of man?
Man's first law is to watch over his own preservation; his first care he owes to himself; and as soon as he reaches the age of reason, he becomes the only judge of the best means to preserve himself; he becomes his own master.”

Natural law is a philosophical theory that states that humans have certain rights, moral values, and responsibilities that are inherent in human nature. Natural law theory is based on the idea that natural laws are universal concepts and are not based on any culture or customs. Still, it is a way society acts naturally and inherently as human beings.

 What are the 5 primary precepts of natural law?

The Primary Precepts are: 
(1) Preserve innocent life; 
(2) Ordered living in society; 
(3) Worship God; 
(4) Educate children; and, 
(5) Reproduction of the species.
The theory of natural law was known to the ancient Greeks but then elaborated by many philosophers. Some important philosophers who played a role in the development of natural law include Aristotle, Plato, and Thomas Aquinas.

Practical Examples

The first example of natural law includes the idea that it is universally accepted and understood that killing a human being is wrong. However, it is also universally accepted that punishing someone for killing that person is right.

The second example includes the idea that two people create a child, and they then become the parents and natural caregivers for that child. It is something that natural law theory would explain as natural law because it is inherent within human beings, and any human-made law would not be required for humans to feel as though they need to act as the caregiver of their child.


The Seven Laws of Nature

These fundamentals are called the Seven Natural Laws through which everyone and everything is governed. They are the laws of :
Attraction, 
Polarity, 
Rhythm, 
Relativity, 
Cause and Effect,
