I have been suspended between opinions about law for a long time. Previously I have held that laws should only protect people, and should allow drugs, abortions, and other things that do not attack other people, even though they go against Gods law. However, I remembered recently that even laws like murder must be based on Gods law. In a world without God, why should we not kill people? If you prefer that other people like you, and if you would like human civilization to survive, of course you shouldn't kill. But what if you don't care?
God provides a higher law than simple preferences (like not being run out of town on a rail), and provides the answer for certain: killing is wrong. In fact, right and wrong are defined by God, by a respect for Gods power and intentions.
Now, even with this strong thought about God law, I am only up in the air rather than decided. But perhaps this will help you in your search for answers about true law.
