Don't ask me, or show me where in the scriptures it is said to be something that unites natural and moral claims.
From fear of Him does the wind blow; from fear of Him does the sun rise; from fear of Him do Agni and Indra act and death, the fith, doth run (T.U. II.8.1) (Katha II3.3)
Everything, apparently, is ordered by Rta.
I only said it's the governing principle of the universe which in its manifested forms decides what the consequences of moral choices will be just as it governs what the consequents of physical happenings will be.
Right, and that governing principle is?
You yourself equivocate between the use of the words "natural order" in the descriptive and prescriptive sense
Er, no I don't. I only use natural order in the descriptive sense.
"Murders exist" isn't in the form of a law, it is a statement of what exists.
An action which has followed natural law from beginning to end.
I have not attacked any argument of yours based on any personal characteristic of yours, so there was no ad hominen.
You attacked my sincerity. We are apparently both busy people, so this will be my last remark on this thread.
