Legal Powers

Hmm, makes me think...

A recent event at RO (Ragnarok Online) has made me think (Yes Rica, I know what I said, but I have nothing to talk about). It involves an accounts ownership being contested.

Who has the right to something (or someone, whatever suites the situation, if you will); the creator or the one who nourishes.

This is something that has been discussed since... well... forever...

With respect to the story of King Solomon and his wisdom, what if love is no longer an issue between the two parties. What gives someone rights to something?

The creator certainly has some right; it is from his/her bosom. He/she has, a cosmic link, a genetic twine, a blood link if you will. Claiming it certainly is within his/her, even if ill given, right.

The one who nourishes on the other hand has supplied to it, a chance to live, a way of survival, the food that feeds it.

Is it the creators fault for not nourishing his creation? Is it the one who nourishes fault that he/she has separated it from its kin? Should circumstances play a role in this decision? Does anything seem right in his?

Times have changed much in these times, adoption, parental custodies, rights claims, patents bla bla bla...

Seems like were complicating things all over again... even self defeating if you will... but is there really a choice? Should it be so complicated?

Between creation and nourishing, two actions with equal power, what would be logical to choose? Where do you even start?

I may be the most ill equipped person to answer these questions. Maybe we all are. Maybe it should be left to God. Should it be left to God? According to religion He created, He nourishes, but I hear no voice... I guess even Him doesn’t want to answer something so wrong to ask.
