Let's back up. If we start from scratch, and look at "rules" "law" regardless -
where is the instance in civilization where rule/law became associated with a monotheistic doctrine?
If there is a rule of law/order prior to those based on monotheistic doctrine - where did it come from?
From the people, right?
Where did the people get the sense of right/wrong, need for law/order, etc?
There's been war, murder, slavery, robbery, coveting of, genocide, trails of tears, etc, etc, etc,... since the dawn of mankind... and yes there's even been religion. So the only solution I see is to throw everything out and decide what we can all agree upon. Not promoting anarchy or anything like that however to reach to conclusion that we can separate the two is a little presumptuous on your part.
So were do you want to begin?
Are all those things I posted at the beginning of this good or evil?
Is it alright to do some evil in the cause of good and visa versa?
