Natural Law is an expansion and rebuttal of a magazine article Robert Anton Wilson wrote for the New Libertarian Reader in 1985, in which he debated against the concept of a supposed "Natural Law" guiding the behavior of humans. Robert Anton Wilson was a prolific author of the counterculture movement of the sixties onward, melding scientific method and rationalism with new age spiritualism and futuristic humanism. With this in mind, Natural Law is a great introduction to anyone who hasn't already found his work through The Illuminatus Trilogy. In Natural Law, Wilson points out the fallacies of his detractors' arguments by slowly dismantling them through reason and logic, arguing not that he can prove them wrong, but rather that they are unable to prove themselves right. Wilson pays close attention to the phrases and concepts used in the debate, and how they are used to manipulate or hypnotize - and in some cases, self-hypnotize - their intended audience. He also examines the inconsistencies of other religious groups claiming their own origin story of "Natural Law" under the guise of secular spiritualism to support their own dogmatic belief systems. Want to know which religion is okay with buggering camels but not okay with buggering a brother-in-law? Wilson knows. Catholicism - a common topic for Wilson, who lived in Ireland at one point - gets dragged into the debate due to it's perfect example of dogmatic rule and the involvement of Catholics in the Natural Law debate, so if you are a Catholic who is sensitive about criticisms about the Catholic Church, I still recommend reading this. Just relax a little. Above all else, Wilson is self-deprecating and ultimately amused by the absurdity of human belief systems, and those of a like mind will enjoy his writings immensely.
