She thinks about it for a moment. "Are you familiar with the Ten Commandments?" Brigid asks. "Or, really, the Bible at all?" It's something that makes sense to her, anyway. "Most of the stories aren't true in historical context. Some are, especially the New Testament. However, many of the lessons that they are supposed to teach all boil down to the beginning of the Hippocratic Oath: First, do no harm."
Brigid believes in that, wholeheartedly. "If I'm understanding the Laws right, that's what they mean: First, do no harm." She frowns for a moment. "The other major lesson in the Bible is don't be a jerk. That also falls in line with the First Law - helping others. The Third Law is survival. No one here would fault you for doing so. The Second Law is a bit problematic, but I think if you look at this place as a community, you can weigh options on how any orders would affect the place as a whole, rather than as individuals."
Brigid thinks for a moment. "Did any of that make sense?"
