Sure, why not? While we're at it, let's get rid of the constitution, charter of rights and freedoms, due process, and just run the entire "free" world based on some hypocritical religion. Genius...
Oh, and if you really lack the brain cells that you just showed you lacked, that was called sarcasm.... |

Absolutely NO. For a start it is immoral to force Christian views and laws on to others and secondly it has failed before.
Its was used during the "dark ages" and look what happened to western Europe. It stagnated while other cultures flourished.
To revert to this form of society would be criminal and a giant back step in human progression. |

I think originally they tried to do that in British Common Law. |

Sure (sarcastic and sickened face) we could use another hypocritical legal system to pad the egos of some self-serving white house inhabitants.... Oh, and just in case there are some right-wing bible-thumpers reading this... This country was NOT founded by Christians... It was founded by Deists..... Let's try and keep it that way.... |

If you knew even the tiniest bit about history you would know it was what our countries laws were founded on. Gee, don't they teach you anything in school? |

I personally dont agree it should be, but there are a lot of people that think it should be. It just matters what the majority of the people think. |

Nope. If it was, we'll revert to the Dark Ages & judging people as witches and Witch Hunting v2.0 will be reloaded. Admit it, even the priests can't tell the exact meaning of Holy Trinity. And, you want it to be the base? I agree it as a base as long as people really understand the essence of religions & Jesus teachings. If not, it will only become the seed of hatred & war. Like Terrorism 2.0 Christian Edition vs Terrorism 1.5 Islam Edition. Have you been in Bali? The legal law is secular, while the social law is religion & culture based. But, they can maintain the open-mindedness & tolerance towards the nude & drunken caucasian tourists. Can Christians do that? |

no because Christianity has nothing to with civil and criminal law. it states that the basis of this question should be based on the opinion of the person not on what they believe |

Why don't you move to Iran for a few years then come back here and tell us how you like living in a theocracy. |

NO ! There are other religions more democratic and true. A law should not have a god in it. |

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! The basis of Christianity is Love. Love of God, Love for Self and Love for others as ourselves. True Christianity is about manifesting this love on a daily basis by allowing it to flow to self and others through showing kindness, joy, faith, hope, patience, humility, faith, self-control and love. Christianity continues to get a bad rap.... but this has nothing to do with Christianity and everything to do human error and human ego. Be blessed. |

If it were we would just forgive everyone and turn the other cheek. Not very practical I'm sure you'd agree |

I can't see that there is anything wrong with basing laws off the 10 basic rules.
It's not a matter of religion as much as it is a matter of discipline. The more "gray area" we create, the more problems we have. |
