] The United States Natural Law Party is a United States
] political party affiliated with the international Natural
] Law Party. It is closely associated with Maharishi
] Mahesh Yogi, leader of Transcendental Meditation, a
] belief which holds the view that natural law is the
] supreme organizing priniciple that governs the universe.
] Adherents believe that all political problems can be
] solved through meditation. Apparently my political views score most closely to that of the natural law party. The natural law party sounds like a bunch of lunatic spiritualists to me. Talk about coming at a solution from a different angle... |

I voted for the Natural Law candidate in one of the Presidential elections once. :) They do have some rather, um, unconventional ideas, but some of them I agree with. For example, they state that if all felons were required by law to learn transcendental meditation, that the crime rate would decrease. And I think that's probably true. :) |

Trouble is this violates the separation of church and state. In application this would be a cure worse then the disease in terms of the level of corruption it would create in the government (in a religious state you can't question the system). |
