"NEVER PLEAD GUILTY"

FLINT LEWIS TOWNSEND

IF someone were accused of a crime he did not commit, he would not stand idly by and allow himself to be punished unjustly. On the contrary, he would employ legal and moral means to bring about his complete vindication and release. In other words, he would "never plead guilty."

Circumstantial evidence is not always based on that which is true and just. One interesting definition of the word "just" is given in a dictionary as "conforming to spiritual law." Could this not be a hint that as the human consciousness is spiritualized by conforming to the spiritual law of God, good, it becomes more just?
