Just and unjust

Who is the judge?

The judge is God?

Why is he God?

Because he decides who wins or loses not my opponent.

Who is your opponent?

It does not exist.

Why does he not exist?

Because he is mute distance voice the truth that I speak.

Just say the truth.

This movie shocked me and reminded me of the topic which I have prepeaered for in the AW GRE. It says that: there are two types of laws: just and unjust. Every individual in a society has a responsibility to obey just laws and, even more importantly, to disobey and resist unjust laws. I remembered clearly that at that time, this topic made me hard and I really did not know how to write, I even did not understand what they convey to me.

This movie gives me the spark, which enlightens me and gives me a inspiration. There are one sentence embed my heart:
St. Augustine said:

"An unjust law is no law at all."

Which means

I have a right, even a duty to resist.

With violence or civil disobedience...

You should pray I choose the later.

To be continued. .

    After Denzel Washington became famous, he finally made a film for his skin tone. It was unexpected that today Obama finally made their dream a reality. It is very meaningful to watch this film on the day of the election.
