About the ends and the means, I don't know: I am no philosopher," I answered. I sighed and was silent for a moment as we walked along, then, after a moment or so, I said quietly to myself, "I'm not much of a kinsman redeemer, either." ABOUT THE ENDS AND THE MEANS I DON'T KNOW I'M NO PHILOSOPHER I ANSWERED I SIGHED AND WAS SILENT FOR A MOMENT AS WE WALKED ALONG THEN AFTER A MOMENT OR SO I SAID QUIETLY TO MYSELF I'M NOT MUCH OF A KINSMAN REDEEMER EITHER
philosophical way: "Your society seems to be flourishing, though I am not surprised, as you all seem vigorously industrious. I am amazed, however, that no one shirks from their job, no matter how menial or trifling." "We all have our assigned jobs, and all know that one slovenly job may cost us dearly," he said. "I suppose I am prejudiced by my conceptions of personal liberty, but it is contrary to my conscience that the state should have more duty than to enforce the individual liberties by common force." "But we are at war, and we must do as we do, or be trampled underfoot." "If all states went no further than justice permits, namely the protection by common force the rights of individuality, liberty, and property, than there would be no room for conflict between states, and hence, no war." "Yet it is our ideologies that bring war, besides, do not the ends justify the means?" he asked. "Your ideologies may cause conflict, yet it seems that your behemoth states facilitate it into war. MY COMPANION BONABUS AND OFFERED IN AN ALMOST PHILOSOPHICAL WAY YOUR SOCIETY SEEMS TO BE FLOURISHING THOUGH I AM NOT SURPRISED AS YOU ALL SEEM VIGOROUSLY INDUSTRIOUS I AM AMAZED HOWEVER THAT NO ONE SHIRKS FROM THEIR JOB NO MATTER HOW MENIAL OR TRIFLING WE ALL HAVE OUR ASSIGNED JOBS AND ALL KNOW THAT ONE SLOVENLY JOB MAY COST US DEARLY HE SAID I SUPPOSE I'M PREJUDICED BY MY CONCEPTIONS OF PERSONAL LIBERTY BUT IT IS CONTRARY TO MY CONSCIENCE THAT THE STATE SHOULD HAVE MORE DUTY THAN TO ENFORCE THE INDIVIDUAL LIBERTIES BY COMMON FORCE BUT WE ARE AT WAR AND WE MUST DO AS WE DO OR BE TRAMPLED UNDER FOOT IF ALL STATES WENT NO FURTHER THAN JUSTICE PERMITS NAMELY THE PROTECTION BY COMMON FORCE THE RIGHTS OF INDIVIDUALITY LIBERTY AND PROPERTY THEN THERE WOULD BE NO ROOM FOR CONFLICT BETWEEN STATES AND HENCE NO WAR YET IT IS OUR IDEOLOGIES THAT BRING WAR BESIDES DO NOT THE ENDS JUSTIFY THE MEANS HE ASKED YOUR IDEOLOGIES MAY CAUSE CONFLICT YET IT SEEMS THAT YOUR BOHEMUTH STATE FACILITATE INTO WAR
