Good questions. I for one like to believe/hope that man is born with the ability to reason and control himself, i.e. do what he does not want to do sometimes. Therefore I do have faith in a certain authority and stability in this complex world in which we dwell and die smiley - tongueout I'm so happy!

What authority can we safely say exists, and that we can trust?

What I'm saying is whether or not we can trust the authority which somehow governs our lives.
