These natural laws lead us to see a means of exiting the state of nature. There are three such laws that are crucial to the eventual formation of a civil state. 1st Law of Nature: First of all, the passions we feel being in the state of nature: the fear of death leads us to seek peace. We must therefore find a way to live in peace while there is hope of achieving it. 2nd Law of Nature: Problems in the State of Nature arise from equality and the Law of Nature which gives each of us the right to everything. If full rights to all things are claimed, conflict will be inevitable; if you don't have freedom, since rights are defined as freedom, then you will lose all rights to everything. Therefore, in the state of nature, the Rights of Nature claim is self-refuting. Hobbes argues that the best course of action is for a man to be willing to give up his right to all things so that others will also be inclined to do the same. If people gave up only some of their rights, giving the sovereign limited power, anarchy would quickly return. Hobbes argued that an agreement must be reached to give up all other natural rights; only then would one be obliged to follow the law. 3rd Law of Nature: A compact is crucial to the formation of a commonwealth. Hobbes says that unless there is a power to keep us in “terror,” we will not keep our promises or contracts to each other. Once we come together to form a community, we will have to maintain our alliances because the community will create judges and rulers who will have the authority to punish us. It is this fear of punishment that makes us keep our promises. Hobbes had already stated that, in the State of Nature, there are no such things as justice and injustice. This is because, in the State of Nature, no one is required to respect their agreements and the act of breaking one
