Sleep Not

from Philosophics — Philosophical and Political Ramblings · host Bry Willis

This excerpt, drawn from "The Indeterminacy of Law and Morality," presents a highly personal and intellectual journey into the foundational flaws of jurisprudence. The author begins by describing their intense, continuous cycle of reading and writing, driven by caffeine and a relentless pursuit of clarity in their work. The narrative then shifts to the author’s use of AI tools like ChatGPT to refine arguments and discover essential, previously missed intellectual references, specifically highlighting the influence of Bernard Williams on their moral philosophy. The central crisis of the text revolves around the author's discovery of admissions in legal textbooks, such as those by Endicott, which openly state that law is fundamentally vague, its application is often unconstrained by rules, and its moral value is optional, suggesting it operates primarily as a power structure. This revelation causes the author significant professional distress, leading them to question the widespread wilful ignorance and silence within the legal profession regarding these inherent limitations of the rule of law.👉 https://philosophics.blog/2025/12/16/i-need-a-break/
