Does Man need Gods Law?

[InvestigateTruth]

bad analogy. Parents don't only communicate to their kids through other people and still try to pretend that they love their children.

Ok, so if you don't like this analogy, I give you another one, maybe you like.
Don't the sheeps need a shepherd?

what type of sheep?

 

[roger1440]

Do people need Gods Law in their lives, can't man just see the obvious and come to the correct conclusion between good and evil, and make the right decisions so that he and all others can share together in what brings peace, joy and goodnees for others and himself?

Yes, we do need God's law in our life. The problem is that we have gone so far from God's law we need instuction to find our way back. We are so off the beaten track.




"So be careful to do what the LORD your God has commanded you; do not turn aside to the right or to the left." (Deuteronomy 5:32 ) New International Version

what type of sheep?

The ones that wolves like too much

The people who deny it, will continue to have evil flung in their face, until they see it. Only God is all-knowing.

 

[F0uad]

Since there are no Atheistic laws yes we need them.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Since there are no Atheistic laws yes we need them.

Why so?

Even with a God there are no official laws. I'd rather take a man's laws than Demiurge's laws.

 

[waitasec]

Since there are no Atheistic laws yes we need them.

actually we need man made laws...
gods laws are too ambiguous.

 

[9Westy9]

but that's all of them

 

[9Westy9]

Since there are no Atheistic laws yes we need them.

Not if we can come up with our own laws

 

[A Troubled Man]

Do people need Gods Law in their lives

Absolutely, but it has yet to be decided whether we should follow the laws of Zeus or the laws of Thor.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Not if we can come up with our own laws

Why though?

 

[The Sum of Awe]

Absolutely, but it has yet to be decided whether we should follow the laws of Zeus or the laws of Thor.

Definitely Thor!

 

[9Westy9]

Why though?

because they're necessary of course.

 

[9Westy9]

Definitely Thor!

I second this

 

[The Sum of Awe]

because they're necessary of course.

Why though?

 

[9Westy9]

Why though?

option 1) anarchy

option 2) order

Pretty easy choice to make

 

[The Sum of Awe]

option 1) anarchy

option 2) order

Pretty easy choice to make

I don't see how order is better than anarchy, and not only because nothing is better than another objectively, but also because I'd like to be free and not be bossed around.

 

[9Westy9]

I don't see how order is better than anarchy, and not only because nothing is better than another objectively, but also because I'd like to be free and not be bossed around.

because anarchy will almost certainly lead to rape, murder, stealing etc.

Are those things bad?
