Quran and secularism - A future essay

The difference between "God's decree/law" and human false hypothesis is very simple..
God's decree / law is true and automatically binding.. it doesn't need any human effort to enforce it.
All human is automatically forced to follow it, willingly or unwillingly..Among the example is Survival of the fittest, where fit in human case will be "nice"..
Those who are not nice shall become extinct.. although the process is happening gradually..Salamun Alakikum.
Are all of God's laws automatically binding.. and do not need any human effort to enforce it?
How about respect your parents, never decieve others, never consume wealth of other wrongfully?
Arman

Look at any law in any country of your choice and you will find similarities between it's civil law code and Gods system handed over to his prophets. Even those societies who strictly seperate religion from government have many elements in them that are a perfect match with eg the 10 commandments.
On a microscopic level man strives towards perfection but never entirely achieves it. On a macroscopic level societies do the same. They aren't perfect. They can only strive to be. Imho this is best achieved with respecting human rights. An idea that originated in faith not in atheism, polytheism or idolatry.
By nature any society that respects the God given system to some degree has a longer projected lifespan than one that rejects Gods system entirely. The latter option is by nature self-destructive and has led many cultures of the past to ruins.

Correct
How about respect your parents, never decieve others, never consume wealth of other wrongfully?
It's a recommendation IF you want certain things happened to you..
Based on the law which God has set out and enforced..Deceive others and thou shall be deceived..
Hurt others and thou shall be hurt.
Etc..Everyone shall get what they deserves..
