@ManMadeMachine,
Quote: People seeking to act violently towards each other is an intrinsic aspect of human nature, in being naturally sinful and as such predisposed to evil. The fact that most religious texts as such preach peace and forgiveness doesn't stop human cultures from corrupting said texts or acting wrongly, and just the same the removal of God's light from mankind wouldn't result in them ceasing to engage in evil acts. It'd in fact do the opposite, as the better part of humanity is directly the result of communion with God's wishes and benevolence.
So. What you are saying, is that people who obey the very law that they impose on the rest of society, will live. While those who break the very law that they impose on others, such as “Love and care for the environment in which the creator has revealed himself, do not harm me or mine, do not steal from me or mine, do not falsely accuse me or mine, do not sleep with my partner, in other words do unto me as you would have me do unto you.
You are your own judge. Jesus said to the pharisee, “To have life, you must Love God and love your neighbour as yourself, do this and you will live, because the entire law is fulfilled in those two commands.
