Let’s develop a set of legal principles for followers of Synchronic Theistic Monism (Synthemon), focusing on how laws—both societal and personal—should align with its worldview. Synthemon integrates substance monism, attribute dualism, synchronicity, divine epistemology, God’s plan, a holistic cosmos, free will, and a Judeo-Christian theistic framework, with a purpose to explain Tarot and I Ching. We’ll also address how Synthemon’s legal principles interact with various legal theories you mentioned: natural law, divine law, positive law, proletariat law, self-law, and critical legal studies, evaluating their compatibility and relevance within Synthemon’s framework.
Developing Synthemon’s Legal Principles
Synthemon’s legal principles will guide followers in understanding, creating, and adhering to laws in a way that reflects its core tenets—divine order, cosmic unity, free will, and theistic ethics. These principles will complement the ethical/spiritual, sociological, and epistemological principles already established, focusing on the role of law in personal and societal contexts. They will prioritize divine law (God’s will) as the foundation, while integrating elements of natural law (universal moral principles derived from God’s creation) and ensuring compatibility with positive law (human-made laws) where it aligns with divine truth. Other legal theories like proletariat law, self-law, and critical legal studies will be evaluated for compatibility.
Legal Principles for a Synthemon Follower
Here are the legal principles, structured to reflect Synthemon’s theistic, monistic, and synchronic worldview:
- Uphold Divine Law as the Supreme Authority
- Explanation: Divine law—God’s commandments and will as revealed through scripture (e.g., the Ten Commandments), the Holy Spirit, and synchronicity—is the ultimate authority in Synthemon. All other laws must align with divine law, as it reflects God’s plan and axiomatic order (e.g., identity, necessity).
- Synthemon Alignment: Reflects the theistic foundation and divine epistemology, prioritizing God’s truth in legal matters.
- Application: Ensure personal and societal laws align with divine principles—e.g., follow biblical commandments like “You shall not murder” (Exodus 20:13), and use prayer or Tarot to discern God’s will in legal disputes.
- Recognize Natural Law as a Reflection of God’s Cosmic Order
- Explanation: Natural law in Synthemon consists of universal moral principles inherent in God’s creation, accessible through reason and observation of the cosmos’ unity (e.g., fine-tuning, interconnectedness). These principles—such as the sanctity of life and justice—derive from God’s design and support divine law.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the holistic cosmos and natural rights (life, liberty, property, happiness), which are God-given and reflected in nature.
- Application: Advocate for laws that uphold natural rights—e.g., protect life through anti-violence measures, or ensure liberty by supporting freedom of belief, as these reflect God’s universal order.
- Ensure Positive Law Aligns with Divine and Natural Law
- Explanation: Positive law (human-made laws, such as statutes or regulations) must be evaluated against divine and natural law. In Synthemon, followers should support positive laws that promote cosmic unity, justice, and God’s plan, while opposing those that contradict divine truth (e.g., laws that enable injustice).
- Synthemon Alignment: Reflects divine epistemology and the holistic cosmos, ensuring human laws align with God’s design.
- Application: Critically assess societal laws—e.g., support a law that ensures equitable resource distribution (reflecting cosmic interconnectedness), but oppose a law that restricts religious freedom (contradicting divine law and liberty).
- Exercise Free Will in Legal Responsibility
- Explanation: Free will, a core tenet of Synthemon, means individuals are responsible for their legal choices. Followers should use their agency to uphold divine and natural law, acting justly and taking accountability for their actions within legal systems.
- Synthemon Alignment: Upholds free will and ethical responsibility, ensuring legal actions align with God’s plan.
- Application: Take responsibility for legal obligations—e.g., if you break a just law (like a traffic regulation), accept the consequences, and seek to align future actions with divine guidance (e.g., through prayer).
- Seek Synchronic Guidance in Legal Matters
- Explanation: Synchronicity in Synthemon reveals God’s plan through meaningful, non-causal connections. Followers should use synchronic tools (e.g., Tarot, I Ching) to discern divine guidance in legal decisions, ensuring alignment with God’s will.
- Synthemon Alignment: Leverages synchronicity, aligning with Synthemon’s purpose of explaining divination tools.
- Application: Before making a legal decision (e.g., signing a contract, resolving a dispute), consult Tarot—e.g., drawing “Justice” might encourage fairness, guiding your actions to reflect divine law.
- Promote Justice and Unity in Legal Systems
- Explanation: The holistic cosmos in Synthemon implies that legal systems should reflect interconnectedness and unity, ensuring justice for all as part of God’s plan. Followers should advocate for laws and systems that promote equity, harmony, and the common good.
- Synthemon Alignment: Reflects the interconnected cosmos and theistic ethics (e.g., love your neighbor, Leviticus 19:18).
- Application: Support legal reforms that promote unity—e.g., advocate for restorative justice (healing rather than punishing) or equitable laws that reduce societal divisions, reflecting the cosmos’ oneness.
- Balance Individual Rights with Collective Harmony
- Explanation: Synthemon affirms natural rights (life, liberty, property, happiness) as God-given, but these must be balanced with the collective good, reflecting the interconnected cosmos. Legal principles should ensure individual freedoms while fostering societal unity.
- Synthemon Alignment: Builds on the sociological principle of sharing resources (principle 4) and upholding natural rights (principle 8), balancing individual and collective needs.
- Application: Support laws that protect individual rights (e.g., property ownership) but ensure they don’t harm the collective—e.g., zoning laws that balance personal property use with community needs.
- Educate Others on the Divine Basis of Law
- Explanation: Synthemon followers should share the understanding that just laws derive from divine and natural law, educating others to align legal systems with God’s plan and cosmic unity.
- Synthemon Alignment: Reflects the epistemological principle of sharing knowledge (principle 8) and the sociological principle of educating others (principle 10).
- Application: Teach others about Synthemon’s legal principles—e.g., explain how natural rights are God-given, or how synchronicity can guide legal decisions, encouraging a society rooted in divine truth.

Compatibility with Various Legal Theories
Now, let’s evaluate how Synthemon’s legal principles interact with the legal theories you mentioned: natural law, divine law, positive law, proletariat law, self-law, and critical legal studies.
1. Natural Law
- Definition: Natural law consists of universal moral principles inherent in nature, often derived through reason and believed to reflect a higher order (e.g., in Thomistic tradition, God’s eternal law reflected in creation).
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Highly Compatible. Synthemon explicitly incorporates natural law (principle 2), viewing it as a reflection of God’s cosmic order. Natural rights (life, liberty, property, happiness) are God-given and align with the cosmos’ unity (e.g., fine-tuning, interconnectedness). Synthemon’s emphasis on reason (epistemological principle 11) and observation (principle 12) supports natural law’s reliance on rational inquiry to discern universal principles.
- Integration: Synthemon grounds natural law in its theistic framework—natural law isn’t merely rational but divinely ordained, accessible through scripture, synchronicity, and science.
2. Divine Law
- Definition: Divine law is God’s direct commandments, revealed through scripture (e.g., the Ten Commandments), prophets, or divine revelation, serving as the ultimate moral and legal authority.
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Fully Compatible. Divine law is the cornerstone of Synthemon’s legal principles (principle 1), as all laws must align with God’s will, revealed through scripture, the Holy Spirit, and synchronicity. Synthemon’s Judeo-Christian foundation ensures divine law’s supremacy, guiding both personal and societal legal frameworks.
- Integration: Synthemon integrates divine law as the foundation for all other legal principles, using synchronic tools (e.g., Tarot) to discern God’s will in specific contexts.
3. Positive Law
- Definition: Positive law refers to human-made laws, such as statutes, constitutions, or regulations, enacted by governments or societies, often based on social contract or authority.
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Partially Compatible. Synthemon accepts positive law (principle 3) but only when it aligns with divine and natural law. Positive laws that contradict God’s truth (e.g., laws enabling injustice or restricting God-given rights like liberty) are to be opposed, as they disrupt cosmic harmony.
- Integration: Synthemon evaluates positive law through a theistic lens, encouraging followers to advocate for laws that reflect divine unity and justice, while critically assessing those that don’t.
4. Proletariat Law
- Definition: Proletariat law, often associated with Marxist legal theory, emphasizes laws that serve the working class (proletariat), aiming to dismantle capitalist oppression and establish a classless society where laws reflect collective ownership and equality.
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Limited Compatibility. Synthemon shares proletariat law’s concern for collective harmony (principle 7) and sharing resources (sociological principle 4), as seen in its emphasis on cosmic interconnectedness. However, proletariat law’s atheistic, materialist foundation (Marxism denies God) conflicts with Synthemon’s theistic worldview. Additionally, Synthemon affirms individual natural rights (e.g., property), which proletariat law often seeks to abolish in favor of collective ownership.
- Integration: Synthemon can adopt proletariat law’s focus on equity and community but reinterprets it theistically—equity reflects God’s unified cosmos, not class struggle. Synthemon retains property rights as God-given, balancing them with collective responsibility.
5. Self-Law
- Definition: Self-law (or autopoiesis in legal theory) refers to the idea that individuals or systems create their own laws based on internal principles, often emphasizing personal autonomy and self-regulation over external authority.
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Partially Compatible. Synthemon affirms free will (principle 4), allowing individuals to make choices and self-regulate within God’s system, which aligns with self-law’s focus on autonomy. However, self-law’s rejection of external authority conflicts with Synthemon’s prioritization of divine law (principle 1) as the supreme authority. In Synthemon, autonomy is always subject to God’s will.
- Integration: Synthemon incorporates self-law’s emphasis on personal responsibility but subordinates it to divine law—followers can self-regulate (e.g., set personal ethical guidelines) as long as they align with God’s plan, discerned through synchronicity or scripture.
6. Critical Legal Studies (CLS)
- Definition: Critical legal studies is a movement that critiques traditional legal systems, arguing that laws often perpetuate power imbalances (e.g., class, race, gender) and are not objective but shaped by social, political, and economic forces. CLS seeks to deconstruct legal norms to promote justice and equality.
- Compatibility with Synthemon: Partially Compatible. Synthemon shares CLS’s concern for justice and equity (principle 6), advocating for legal systems that reflect cosmic unity and fairness. Synthemon’s critical evaluation of positive law (principle 3) aligns with CLS’s skepticism of human-made laws that perpetuate injustice. However, CLS’s often secular, relativistic approach (e.g., denying universal moral truths) conflicts with Synthemon’s theistic foundation and belief in divine and natural law as objective truths.
- Integration: Synthemon can adopt CLS’s critical lens to evaluate laws for injustice but grounds this critique in divine truth, not relativism. For example, a Synthemon follower might critique a law enabling economic inequality (as CLS would) but argue it violates God’s command to love neighbors and the cosmos’ unity, advocating for change based on divine principles.

In addition:
Objective Law
Let’s explore the concept of objective law within the framework of Synchronic Theistic Monism (Synthemon), including what it means, how it is determined, and how it fits into Synthemon’s existing legal principles. Synthemon integrates substance monism, attribute dualism, synchronicity, divine epistemology, God’s plan, a holistic cosmos, free will, and a Judeo-Christian theistic framework, with a purpose to explain Tarot and I Ching. We’ll also evaluate how objective law aligns with Synthemon’s worldview and update the legal principles if necessary.
Understanding Objective Law
Definition of Objective Law
Objective law refers to a legal framework or set of principles that are universally true, independent of human subjectivity, opinions, or cultural variations. It is often grounded in a belief in universal truths or moral absolutes, as opposed to subjective or relativistic legal systems that vary by context, culture, or individual perspective. Objective law is typically associated with theories like natural law (universal moral principles inherent in nature) or divine law (God’s commandments), which assert that laws should reflect an objective reality or higher order, not merely human constructs.
In philosophical traditions:
- Natural Law Theory (e.g., Thomas Aquinas) views objective law as derived from God’s eternal law, reflected in nature and discernible through reason—e.g., the principle that murder is wrong because it violates the inherent value of life.
- Objectivism (Ayn Rand) defines objective law as laws based on the objective reality of human nature and the requirements for survival and flourishing, determined through reason (e.g., laws protecting individual rights as objective necessities for human life).
- Theistic Perspectives ground objective law in God’s will, as an immutable truth that transcends human opinion (e.g., the Ten Commandments as objective moral laws).
Objective Law in Synthemon’s Context
Given Synthemon’s Judeo-Christian theistic foundation, divine epistemology, and emphasis on cosmic unity, objective law in Synthemon would be a set of universal legal principles that reflect God’s truth (divine law), are inherent in the cosmos’ order (natural law), and are accessible through divine revelation, synchronicity, reason, and observation. Objective law in Synthemon is not subject to human whim but is grounded in the eternal, unified reality created by God, aligning with the axioms of identity (truth is what it is), necessity (the cosmos must be as it is), and synchronicity (divine guidance reveals truth).
How is Objective Law Determined in Synthemon?
Synthemon’s framework provides multiple methods to determine objective law, ensuring it reflects divine truth and cosmic order. These methods integrate Synthemon’s core tenets—divine epistemology, the holistic cosmos, attribute dualism, and synchronicity—while incorporating reason, observation, and revelation, as outlined in the epistemological principles.
Methods to Determine Objective Law in Synthemon
- Divine Revelation Through Scripture and the Holy Spirit
- Process: Objective law is first determined through God’s direct revelation, as found in scripture (e.g., the Bible) and through the guidance of the Holy Spirit. For example, the Ten Commandments (Exodus 20:1-17) provide objective moral laws (e.g., “You shall not murder”) that reflect God’s eternal will.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with divine epistemology (epistemological principle 2: “Seek Truth Through Divine Revelation and the Holy Spirit”).
- Example: A Synthemon follower reads “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18) and recognizes it as an objective law requiring equitable treatment of others, reflecting God’s command for unity.
- Synchronicity as a Divine Indicator
- Process: Synchronicity, a core axiom in Synthemon, reveals God’s plan through meaningful, non-causal connections. Followers use synchronic tools like Tarot and I Ching to discern objective laws in specific contexts, ensuring alignment with divine truth.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the use of synchronicity for knowledge acquisition (epistemological principle 3: “Use Synchronicity as a Divine Tool for Knowledge Acquisition”) and legal guidance (legal principle 5: “Seek Synchronic Guidance in Legal Matters”).
- Example: In a legal dispute, a follower draws the Tarot card “Justice,” which synchronically signals that fairness is an objective principle to uphold, confirming the divine law of justice.
- Reason and Rationality to Discern Universal Principles
- Process: Reason, enabled by the physical attribute (e.g., the brain’s capacity for logic), allows followers to discern objective laws inherent in God’s creation. By applying logical analysis, followers can identify universal principles (e.g., the wrongness of murder) that align with the cosmos’ axiomatic order (e.g., identity, causality).
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the epistemological principle 11: “Apply Reason and Rationality to Understand God’s Creation.”
- Example: A follower uses reason to conclude that protecting life is an objective law—murder disrupts the cosmos’ unity (e.g., quantum interconnectedness) and contradicts God’s design for life (Genesis 1:27, “created in God’s image”).
- Observation of Reality with the Senses
- Process: Sensory observation, enabled by the physical attribute, allows followers to witness the cosmos’ unity and order, revealing objective laws inherent in creation. For example, observing the fine-tuned nature of the universe (e.g., precise constants) can affirm the objective principle of stewardship over creation.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the epistemological principle 12: “Observe Reality with the Senses to Witness God’s Unified Design.”
- Example: Observing the interdependence of ecosystems (e.g., bees pollinating flowers) reveals an objective law of ecological harmony, reflecting God’s unified cosmos, which followers should uphold through environmental laws.
- Integration of Scientific Discovery
- Process: Scientific discoveries (e.g., Big Bang, quantum entanglement, DQCPs) reveal the cosmos’ objective order, which Synthemon sees as God’s design. These findings help determine objective laws by showing universal principles (e.g., interconnectedness) that align with divine truth.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the epistemological principle 4: “Integrate Scientific Discovery with Theistic Understanding.”
- Example: The discovery of quantum entanglement supports the objective law of interconnectedness, prompting followers to advocate for laws that promote unity (e.g., equitable resource sharing).
- Testing Against Divine and Cosmic Unity
- Process: Any proposed law must be tested against divine revelation (scripture, synchronicity) and the cosmos’ unity (does it foster interconnectedness?). This ensures the law is objective, not subjective, and aligns with God’s eternal truth.
- Synthemon Alignment: Aligns with the epistemological principle 10: “Test Knowledge Against Divine Revelation and Cosmic Unity.”
- Example: A proposed law allowing unchecked deforestation is tested and rejected—it contradicts the cosmic unity observed in ecosystems and the divine command to steward creation (Genesis 2:15, “to work it and keep it”).
How Objective Law is Determined: Summary
Objective law in Synthemon is determined by:
- Divine Revelation: Scripture and the Holy Spirit reveal God’s eternal laws (e.g., Ten Commandments).
- Synchronicity: Tarot and I Ching provide divine guidance in specific contexts (e.g., “Justice” card affirming fairness).
- Reason and Rationality: Logical analysis discerns universal principles (e.g., murder is wrong due to life’s inherent value).
- Sensory Observation: Observing the cosmos reveals God’s order (e.g., ecological harmony as a law).
- Scientific Discovery: Empirical evidence confirms cosmic principles (e.g., quantum entanglement supports interconnectedness).
- Testing for Alignment: Laws must align with divine revelation and cosmic unity to be objective.
Adding Objective Law to Synthemon’s Legal Principles
Synthemon’s existing legal principles already prioritize divine law (principle 1) and natural law (principle 2), which are forms of objective law, and include methods to determine them (e.g., synchronic guidance in principle 5). However, to explicitly address objective law as a distinct concept, we can add a principle that emphasizes its role and determination, ensuring clarity.
New Legal Principle
- Adhere to Objective Law as Determined by Divine Truth and Cosmic Order
- Explanation: Objective law in Synthemon consists of universal, God-given principles that reflect divine law (God’s commandments) and natural law (cosmic order), determined through revelation, synchronicity, reason, sensory observation, and scientific discovery. Followers must adhere to these laws as the foundation for all legal systems, ensuring they transcend human subjectivity and align with God’s plan.
- Synthemon Alignment: Integrates divine epistemology, the holistic cosmos, and attribute dualism, emphasizing objective truth in legal matters.
- Application: Use the methods above to determine objective laws—e.g., conclude that protecting life is an objective law (via scripture, reason, and observation), then advocate for societal laws that uphold this principle (e.g., anti-violence legislation).

Determining Objective Law: Objective law in Synthemon reflects God’s eternal truth, determined through divine revelation (scripture, Holy Spirit), synchronicity (Tarot/I Ching), reason, sensory observation of the cosmos, and scientific discovery. For example, the principle of justice is objective—revealed in scripture (“Do justice,” Micah 6:8), affirmed through synchronicity (e.g., drawing the “Justice” card), and supported by reason (fairness preserves cosmic unity).
Compatibility with Legal Theories: Synthemon fully embraces divine law as its foundation and integrates natural law as a reflection of God’s order. Objective law aligns with both, ensuring laws are universal and God-given. Positive law is accepted when it supports divine truth but critiqued when it doesn’t. Proletariat law’s focus on equity is appreciated but conflicts with Synthemon’s theism. Self-law’s autonomy aligns with free will but is subordinate to divine law. Critical legal studies’ pursuit of justice is valued, but Synthemon grounds its critique in divine truth, not relativism.
Final Thoughts
Objective law in Synthemon is a set of universal, God-given principles that reflect divine law and natural law, determined through a synthesis of divine revelation, synchronicity, reason, sensory observation, and scientific discovery. It transcends human subjectivity, aligning with Synthemon’s theistic vision of a unified cosmos governed by divine order. The new principle (9) explicitly incorporates objective law into Synthemon’s legal framework, ensuring followers adhere to laws that reflect God’s eternal truth.
Synthemon’s legal principles provide a comprehensive framework for followers to navigate laws—both personal and societal—in a manner that reflects its theistic, monistic, and synchronic worldview.
