Yes, but not for America. For Jews only, in our own communities.

I"m a christian, but I don't think all laws in the nation should be based on the bible since not everyone in the nation believes in the bible. I think a good government is one that is fair to all people, which can be hard living in a country as diverse as the USA....but I still think it is possible.

No. Laws are from the will of man in society.
We once passed laws based on the Bible and they didn't work well. We found out if we had "fornication" laws that 50% of society would have to be put into jail and that would cost us too much money to do and take up too much room.

I support it in the context that a person has the free will to adhere to it or not.
Do I believe that it should become government in forced law? no.

No. I think that religious laws should be left to religious organizations and secular laws to secular organizations.
My religion doesn't have "laws", only virtues that we strive for.

I support world peace and freedom of religion, which also means freedom to not practice religion. theocracy is as bad as totalitarianism.

peace and blessings to all,
