You are obviosly mistaken by my terms. I'm very familuar with anarchism having known a few extreme anarchists but that is not what I'm talking about when I say logical morals.

I'm familiar with the subject.

I'm describing a new type of rationalism. A rationalism I'm sure noone here has ever heard of because I thought it up only a few years ago. There is only one other person who ever completely understood the practicle applications of this new thought. The rest of the world isn't ready for it, but since I'm communicating with some extremely intellegent and well informed people here I'll discuss it.
Logic morals.
The most important thing to an individual is pleasure. Naturally it is
desirable for everyone to have the most pleasure possible. In order have
the most pleasure one must be free to do as he/she pleases. Now there are
some draw backs. One may not want to be in pain as part of ones pleasure
plan. This person knows what happens to somebody else may also happen to
him/her. So this person doesn't hurt others to avoid retaliation. This
person may also show others the logic of this peace who, because they are
rational, agree that it is desirable to not be inflicted pain. They agree
on a law that no person may harm another. They also recognize that a person
who breaks the law has a reason for doing so. If the reason is it is
pleasurable for them to inflict pain but not pleasurable to receive pain
they can be taught indisirableness of receiving pain and the logic of
retalliation as a protective measure of ones individual pleasure.
Well I need to head off. You can see how it builds and can be applied to practicle use and laws. The point is do what you want just don't involve anyone who doesn't want to be involved. In anarchy there is no law, in my rationalism, I'll call Clintism for the moment, there definately is law so they are differen't in thought and practice.
