Lex Naturalis

Lex Naturalis:

An ongoing (and interesting) discussion in the thymos post, below, makes me want to revisit the concept of "natural law." What is it? How do you know if something is or is not according to the law of nature? Is it important that things should be?

Here is the wikipedia article, which explains a number of versions of the concept that have existed over the years. Which is your favorite?
