That's all well and good, but if you believe that (to pick a controversial example) abortion is murder, and leads to damnation, why wouldn't you want to make a law against it? All laws are made to reflect someone's belief in what is wrong.

dependent on that someone believing that society shared (or should share) their views.
Laws (for the most part) are made by people representing sectors of society - that's why they can be so hard to get through government.
