Justice as a Profession

What is law, who do jurists think they are and what are they believed to be, what do they actually do when they write judgments, citations, briefs, opinions, books, or expound legal ideas to a class of students? Answers are many, but none eliminates doubts and all open possibilities for thinking, doing or saying differently. Each lends itself to being turned one way or the other. We don't know if the same thing can be said for every profession. But for those who work with law, certainly yes.
