"While it is true that the law isn't the only determinant of right and wrong, relying solely on personal beliefs or subjective judgment can lead to inconsistency and lack of accountability. The law provides a framework that is based on shared societal values and promotes fairness and justice. It offers a standardized set of rules and regulations that apply to all individuals within a given jurisdiction.


Without the law as a guiding principle, moral and ethical judgments become highly subjective and prone to bias. Different people may have conflicting beliefs about what is morally right or wrong, leading to a lack of consensus and potential conflicts. The law, on the other hand, is based on a deliberative process that involves various stakeholders and aims to strike a balance between collective interests and individual rights.


Additionally, the law provides a system of enforcement and consequences for actions deemed socially unacceptable or harmful. It offers a mechanism for resolving disputes and seeking justice when conflicts arise. Without legal regulations, individuals may resort to personal interpretations of right and wrong, resulting in chaos, exploitation, and a breakdown of order within society.


While it is important to critically examine the law and advocate for necessary changes, it is equally crucial to recognize the role it plays as a foundation for a just and orderly society."
