So should laws parallel religious doctrine or tenets? By James Jaeger

Ontology to Science Cycle

So should laws parallel religious doctrine or tenets?

No, because many of them are not ethical or moral

Or some of them may be outdated.

But remember this: the below scale makes sense if you look at it from the POV that each item down the rung is a further distillation of the item above.

ONTOLOGY

EPISTEMOLOGY

PHILOSOPHY

RELIGION

POLITICS

LAW

SCIENCE

Ontology is the study of being. Epistemology is the study of knowing how to know about what is (being). Philosophy is the grouping of areas of knowledge (knowing) into workable and semi-workable doctrines. Religion is the study of wisdom or applied philosophy. Politics is the study and application of religion to social interactions. Law is the codification of specific social interactions. Science is the codification of specific physical interactions in an attempt to understand the ontology of the universe.
