How could you classify a person which a job is to NOT follow the spirits of the laws? If you agree that the laws are not just be follow as its letter but also as its spirit, so you consequently agree that lawyers are unethical.
If the lacks in the laws as its different interpretation didn’t exist and each law had just one spirit that everyone followed, way would we need lawyers? This profession would not be a detach as it is.
Have you ever needed a lawyer or as asked one an advised? If yes, why? Maybe trying to find something in the law against its spirit? If you didn’t, would you? But isn’t this unethical?
More questions for the discussion: What is a law spirit? Who defines it? How it is defined? Should all the laws has it one and just one spirit, everybody follows it and the lawyers didn’t exist as they are now? Is there space for ethical lawyers is the criminal defense for example?
I don’t think that the laws have spirits, to me laws are done and they have to be follow as they were written. Should they be perfect? Sure they should. But they are not, so instead of blame the people because they are being following what the laws say, people should be more worried to ask the people who make law to perfect them, leaving less gaps between theirs suppose spirit and its actual situation.
