The principle or idea that every person has the right to live as he/she chooses so long as it does not involve initiating force or fraud against another person. The N.A.P. is the principle from which the political philosophy of libertarianism is derived, and is also similar to the wiccan rede, "An it harm none, do what thou wilt," as well as various other spiritual teachings.
A brief explication of the Non-Aggression Principle, also known as the philosophy of liberty, can be found online at http://www.isil.org/resources/introduction.swf in the form of a 10-minute video.

Get the Non-Aggression Principle mug.The principle that people will rise to the level of their own incompetence. People get promoted by being good, but not when they're lousy at their job. The Peter Principle states that people will be promoted until they enter a job that they are no good at, and there they will stay forever.
That's why every career manager is terrible at his job.

Get the Peter Principle mug.The idea that the more sex (and sexual partners) a person has had, the more crazy kinds of sex they have had.

Get the Principal Principle mug.a very specific rule governing the tipping for free drinks stating that the value of the tip given should be no less than half the combined value of the drinks.

Get the cahuenga principle mug.The bear principle is the theoretical idea that you don't need to be able to outrun an angry bear to escape; you only have to outrun the guy next to you.
Can be used as a metaphor for almost anything where the "bear" is some type of authority and you are the one trying to not get eaten. Evading police, cheating, internet piracy, drug dealing, etc.

When it comes to internet piracy, the bear principle states that while it is difficult or impossible to be completely anonymous when torrenting, IP blockers like PeerBlock will focus the attention of the "bear" on those that take no precautions at all. Anti-piracy types are not likely to go through the extra effort needed to track you when there are plenty of people who can be tracked effortlessly.
