I am sorry I am not nit picky about everything you say. I just wanted you to explain how I was wrong. Obviously I am ignorant to this your majesty and I accept all things you say. Religious and reading of course is mutually exclusive, but I bet I can still comprehend better than you.
And my half God statement was about your Abraham statement, you assume that today’s religion is equal to Abraham’s God. Which is not true, the today’s religion is much liberal. God is not what many people assume he is.[/quote]

How is it fundamentally flawed? There is a right answer and a wrong answer. Now, if you do not know, then do not state your opinion as fact.

English common law, of which both our countries derive their legal systems from, was based on the principles of jurisprudence set forth in Corpus Juris Civilis(the Justinian Code). This was heavily influenced by Christian morality. The aforementioned Justinian Code later became the basis for Western civil law, albeit with modifications for the time period. Also, most natural law scholars based their presuppositions on religious assumptions.
To state the laws we follow regarding ethical conduct were not at least in part influenced by religion, moreover Christianity, is a fools errand.
You are saying that without Christianity, these laws wouldn’t exist? Your attempts at displaying that religion helped civilization gain logic is utterly flawed.
I stated that the laws of the West are based in a Christian morality. The idea of ‘natural law’ is very much based in religion.[/quote]
Natural law needs an idea of God, nor religion, The Justinian code was not the basis of common law, neither in Germany nor in England and if it had been it would still be irrelevant because it is about contracts and inheritances and who suffers the loss of a thing and none of that is really Christian in any real sense.
