Senior Women: The Grandchildren Make Perfect Sense
Feb 1st, 2011 | By admin | Category: For Senior WomenOkay, here it is, dear SCJ Friends!! I commented on Sam’s Laws for New Scorpia (the Archidon Society) a couple of weeks ago. Sam (my precious great-nephew) has given permission for the Archidon Laws to be published. Here they are, and I think we senior citizens (and the rest of society also!) can take some lessons from these Laws:
Laws of New Scorpia
1. No shooting or threatening any fellow Archidon
2. All weapons must be stored during peace times
3. No picking up quartz off of the ground
4. Must accept punishments given
5. No stealing
6. No hurtful cussing
7. Must follow orders from leader/commanding officer
8. Orders given must be reasonable
9. All members are required to wear eye protection
10. Must respect individual store rules
11. Must store all quartz in the bank
12. All stores must be outfitted
13. Must pay taxes
14. No vandalism
15. Must follow popular vote
16. Everybody is required to help with community projects
17. Every shop may be suspect to investigation
18. No gangs or riots
19. Everybody must have a shop and a job
20. Jobs must be reasonable
21. All able members must participate in military
22. Everyone has to vote
23. Everyone must have a weapon
24. No lying
25. Leader has no additional rights and cannot abuse power

These laws are to be put into effect and enforced after the Council signs on the above line.

I think these ‘Rules’ or ‘Laws’ are amazing… coming from a group of 13 year olds who want to create workable relationships with each other, on the edge of the beautiful Sonoran Desert. Sam’s twin sister, Rachel, is the Judge, who has responsibility for resolving any disputes. Sam says they chose her because she has the most objectivity of anyone in the group.
I think about what our society would be like if we lived within these Laws.
