For instance, we have to struggle with drives that are stronger than any other which are considered forbidden. The Greeks and many other people on the other hand elevated this drive and made it divine and celebrated it at great feasts. What is forbidden, in other words, is not something  eternal. It can change. Anyone can sleep with a man or woman as soon as he's been to Pastor with her or him and has married them. Yet other races do it differently even nowadays. That is why  each one of us has to find out for himself or herself what is permitted and what is forbidden for themselves. It is possible for one never to transgress a single law and still be a bastard and vice a versa. Actually it's only a question of convenience. Those who are too lazy and comfortable to think for themselves and be their own judges obey the laws. Others sense  their own laws within them; things that are forbidden to them that every honorable man will do any day in the year and other things are allowed to them that are generally despised. Each person must stand on his/her own feet.
