It was basically in the perfect spot and the keeper still saved it.

It's the I Ching, an ancient Chinese Taoist philosophical/divination system that divides reality into sets of six lines. Each line can be either full or broken, yang or yin.

For example, this is hexagram 1



Completely yang, all full lines. The six lines are usually broken into two trigrams, in this case full yang over full yang, or Heaven over Heaven.

Heaven is associated with Creative Force, so this is a hexagram of powerful creative potential.

There are 2^6 or 64 possible combinations of broken and unbroken lines. Further, there can be changing lines which transform the hexagrams into other hexagrams. There are 2^3 or 8 different trigrams.

I throw the coins here, and take my readings partially from that site but mostly by googling around different sites and seeing what strikes me as relevant and poetic.

You throw three coins, each coin is yin/yang, you get the lines out of the results of six throws.

There are infinite applications. My favorite musician, Pat Martino, relates the I Ching to string use on a guitar. Terrence Mckenna used it to generate data for his Timewave Zero Theory. I use it to bring focus to my will and intentions, but I'm still in the neophyte stage.

It's not nitty, but I think it's wrong. The shift I'm proposing, from father has no rights and no obligations to father has equal rights and obligations is so drastic that there needs to be a sharp, clear cutoff at which it occurs. Further, I think that cutoff needs to be clear to both members of the couple when it arrives, and each needs to be able to say yes or no.

I get that there are many non-married relationships in which it would seem like imposing what I would call the married rule would be appropriate. I thought about that before I typed it up, and realized that capturing those would be good but that good would be outweighed by the uncertainty in so many other relationships, enough so that it would make the proposed rule untenable.

Perhaps strangely, I think that marriages should not be legally recognized in any way or under any circumstances by any state entity — in other words, I think people should be allowed to say they're married if they want, no matter who they are or why they think they're saying it, and the state should not give a damn because no marriage has any legal force in any context. But an alternative would be to do it this way, to retain the marriage concept for this purpose (only).
