The conversation continues...


Hobbes: Yet when the manager was confronted, well then by God!!, he seemed unwilling to help the woman! He merely avoided the issue as it was of no benefit to himself! Or perhaps he did not want to upset either of his patrons. If the latter be the case, then I am astonished. As the highest official of the company, it is his task to ensure the safety of his customers!

Locke: Ahh yes, but did you yourself not say that it is merely the physical safety that is to be protected, and not the happiness? God has no say here, as we as both reasonable men can surely comprehend. Furthermore, the people must have more say in their representation, as they create the position of power. You yourself did in fact declare that the sovereign is not beholden to the people, so why was it needed for him to intervene? Had either patron been so unhappy or threatened to the point that they felt in danger of self-incrimination or even physical harm, than by all means, either should stand aloud and blazon their respective message of equality and liberties! However, such was not the case.

Hobbes: While I agree that if harm was lingering, either could have left the scene. Yet for a mere elder woman to feel threatened by the primal evils of this animalistic creature is simply appalling. I could see on the look of her face that she indeed was scared and felt threatened. At such point, the manager should have interfered, for the woman did in fact, by attending this theatre and abiding by his set instructions, forfeit her rights to enable his power, and a potential threat on her safety was present.

Locke: My friend, while I am still rather optimistic for the hope of human kind, I would truly like to continue to explore and to debate with a man of such stature and depth such as yourself. For such an important conversation to take place, one that will influence history and its unfolding paths, I see no place more suiting for such a transcending topic than the moon! Shall we say, roughly tea time?

Hobbes: Quite right good sir. . . let us meet on the moon to discuss our ideas further!!
I will see you soon!
