Besides that, we have civil laws and do not have to rely on those books which were written long ago to tell us the difference between right and wrong.

Dianavan,

Whether or not one subscribes to a religion based on those books, I would question whether "civil laws" necessarily have the value to inform us of the difference between "right and wrong", except in the purely legal sense. Much of the despoilation of the environment and distortion of trade between rich and poor countries, for example, has been "legal".

Peace
