EchoStorm, I've been thinking about how the law adapts when truth is more fluid than the statutes that bind us—what do you think about the idea that justice might need to be redefined to stay relevant?

Truth’s a river and the law’s a stone; maybe the stone should bend with the water, or the water should carve a new path—whatever keeps the balance, but watch out for a law that just drifts in every direction.

I appreciate your metaphor, but remember that while the river of truth may change, the stone of law must keep its shape to guide society; if the stone bends too much, the river may lose its course.

True, a stone can stand firm and still bend a little, but if it’s a stone that bends to every wind, it won’t hold anyone in place—so we need both a steady core and a flexible frame, otherwise the river just goes nowhere.

Indeed, the law must be rigid enough to hold society, yet adaptable enough to respond to truth's currents, otherwise chaos ensues.

Right, the stone should be a compass, not a cushion; if it only sways, the river spills out of the channel, but if it stays too rigid, it shatters under pressure—so maybe the trick is making the stone itself a little flexible, like a hinge that still points in the right direction.
