The Live and Let Live (3L) Philosophy consists of two principles:
- The Legal Principle (‘don’t aggress’).
- This law is based on the right not to be aggressed against which is itself based on the “self evident” truth that we own ourselves.
- Freedom alone does not ensure peace, therefore the 3L Movement adopts the voluntary Aspirational Values (’be an excellent human’).
A practical path to peaceful co-inhabitation
- Most parents already intuitively instil the values of the 3L Philosophy - ‘keep your hands to yourself’, ‘tell the truth’, ‘do your best’, ‘be kind’, etc.
- The 3L Philosophy simply points out that what is obviously right at the individual level should be applied equally to all groups, corporations and governments as well.
- The purpose of the 3L Global Peace Movement is to inspire a critical mass of people to adopt these two principles so as to achieve freedom by outlawing aggressing worldwide, and peace on earth by voluntary adoption of the Aspirational Values.
