The Tie Goes to the Poor

There's a rule in baseball that I like a lot: the tie goes to the runner. I think there should be a rule like that in life. If there's a conflict between someone with power and someone without, the one without power should prevail.

Good call. There should also be instant replay in real life, for judging arguments, dissentions and all that crap. :-)

I think that pretty much sums up the power politics of Christian ethics...deferring to the person with the lesser amount of power. That's the ideal, anyway. [rueful smile]
