Religion isn't needed to pass laws like "Do not kill" or "Do not steal". I don't think we should avoid making common sense laws just because they happen to coincide with some some religious doctrine. I'm just saying that I do not think we should make laws just because of some religious doctrine and nothing else.

If you read my post, I think I'm pretty safe in saying you and I agree with each other. Religion isn't needed to pass moral laws, and we shouldn't make laws just because of some religious doctrine and nothing else. I agree with that.
