Terrifically complex indeed!
If we tried to simplify those factors, perhaps we would call them “natural law”.
Something which would be inherent to nature: “we hold these truths to be self evident”
That type of law is what we call “the law on our hearts” -the source of which is what we call God.
To understand it better I look at the results:
When this natural law is followed:
History sees great civilizations of justice and times of peace, both within and without the individual.
When the natural law is broken: we see tyrants, anger, suffering, war, etc. Again, at the macro and/or micro level.
History is full of good things twisted into evil, and those using religion aggressively is another example.
Christians are commanded to reserve both judgement and revenge to God- so any who would accuse you, living with sin themselves, would be outside of the law.
Perhaps you would appreciate Jordan Peterson’s latest work.
