Dear Amelia,

"Yes, again I think you are correct - and in the long run, I think this is more important than law."

But law is, nonetheless, vitally important. Many, many people, especially in an increasingly secular society, especially when many people have loosened or cut their ties to organized religion, rely on the civil law to teach them what is right and what is wrong.

That may not be a desirable thing, but it is as things are.

But law is, nonetheless, vitally important. Many, many people, especially in an increasingly secular society, especially when many people have loosened or cut their ties to organized religion, rely on the civil law to teach them what is right and what is wrong.

Again, I can't disagree. I'm just not sure it's the most important thing. Maybe I'm seeing the entire issue as a three-legged stool sort of thing.
