=== User: The Roots of Law === The Roots of Law Even in antiquity, thinkers and prophets warned against the dangers of law drifting away from life itself. Jesus rebuked the Pharisees, who multiplied traditions and regulations without spirit, saying: “Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by the roots” (Matthew 15:13). His words strike at the heart of the issue: a rule not grounded in truth, in reality, in the living order of things, cannot endure. The same danger repeats today. Our bureaucracies and virtual systems often serve themselves, not life. They sprout like weeds — endless forms, codes, and protocols, multiplying without limit, until they suffocate the soil of existence. What is not planted in reality, in necessity, in the actual ground of human survival and flourishing, will eventually be torn out. The question is whether this uprooting will be gentle reform or violent collapse. A horizontal society must heed this principle. Rules should not be abstract layers added for their own sake, nor instruments of hidden control. They must be “planted” — rooted in the ground of shared life, tangible needs, and universal truths. Only then will they endure without becoming a burden heavier than life itself. Weave these examples into this text, and make a special note on how life itself and nature seem to always promote well being, with abundance of fruit, seeds, land, and every resource. The natural law is one of providence/
