There is a sociological axiom amongst the sentient races of the known universe that have escaped their planetary cradles (there are only four sentient races that we know of, so far, including humans, but this sounds better than ‘the other three sentient races had this idea…’): for a pre-space age society to develop into a galactic nation, a planetary revolution must first take place, wiping away racial struggle, religion and the institutions that keep both alive. That revolution can only come about through a general understanding (although not necessarily a conscious one) of the concepts and consequences of the chaos theory. These sentient races – they don’t like being called ‘aliens’ and they’re a bit more advanced than us (think lightsabers and warpdrives, which is odd, because we thought about it first, even though they managed to build it first) so I’m going to be diplomatic – came up with this axiom after all three had gone through this process and compared their stories to one another. When a similar thing happened on Earth, they were all really smug about it, but then, it was the first true feat of galactic sociology.
What this chaos theory does is not, as some people thought or wanted others to believe, choose chaos over order. This wasn’t a light or dark choice, no universal struggle between good and evil. That would come later, apparently, according to the sociological axiom of the five sentient races we still don’t know of, simply due to the fact that they have left our plane of existence and went to the Plane of the Struggle of Good versus Evil. They played curling continuously, and whichever side won three matches would be Reigning Ethical Alignment for the day. After a week, Good and Evil joined hands to find a way to escape that hellish dimension, but they were quickly opposed by the United Curling Amateurs. The battle continues ‘till this day.
