You know, we do define justice as the will of the strongest. And jurisprudence does apply in nature as everything follows a code. Birds don't eat Monarch butterflies because they'd give the bird gnarly poops for a week. The bird is stronger, but a natural law was developed by his kind regarding that event. Wtf would my excuse be for any of my behavior in a spider court be? Compared to your average joe I'm nice to spiders, and even with the most reasonable and lax spider law I'd probably be deemed a psychopathic monster. Forget spider court tho, if every animal gets judged by their ethos at the pearly gates, i'm pretty sure we'd go extinct on this realm. I find that we are weirdly evil as a species. Alarmingly so.

Maybe murdering a spider that simply wanted to kiss you.

You do have a point tho. We would have to be judged by another psychopathic species to avoid extinction. Maybe giant squid gods would treat us well.

@goatsshadow

But on the other hand, maybe that spider was looking for a suitable live host/food source for its eggs...

You might have dodged a really horrible fate.
