For the forthcoming fourth edition of Dungeons & Dragons, the rules for aligment, that is, one's moral character, were revised. Instead of a grid formed formed by an axis of good and evil crossed by one of chaos and law, alignments now range on a line from lawful good (meaning one favors civilization and order) thru good (freedom and kindness) to unaligned (everyday OKness) then on to evil (tyranny and hatred) and chaotic evil (entropy and destruction).
Today's quiz is, what is the alignment of someone who could make and enforce this statement:
"If somebody tries to stop the march to democracy, we will seek them out and kill them!"
As a hint (added later) I would add that I figured out why the alignment Chaotic Good was purged. According to the new definition of Lawful Good:
"When leaders exploit their authority for personal gain, when laws grant privileged status to some citizens and reduce others to slavery or untouchable status, law has given in to evil and just authority becomes tyranny. You are not only capable of challenging such injustice, but morally bound to do so.
"However, you would prefer to work within the system to right such problems rather than resorting to more rebellious and lawless methods."
People who choose to fight a system from without, those who are chaotic good, would today be called insurgents and terrorists. They also wrote the Declaration of Independence, whose most important part reads:
"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."
