Also, as has been explained to you before Cheese; just because you find an earlier reference to a christian principle doesn't mean Christianity isn't responsible for ingraining said principle within society.

Still pompous eh?
Here is who created your linked thesis...
Associate Professor, Regent University School of Law, and Director, Institute
for Christian Legal
Studies, a joint ministry of the Christian Legal Society and Regent University School of Law.
Regent University - America's Preeminent Christian University
Do you think they looked at what they were writing with an open mind? Honestly?
The Introduction...
The civil law, although imperfectly administered by man, is a gift from God that flows from his nature and reflects his character.
The Christian legal scholar who desires
to integrate the study of law with his or her Christian faith needs instruction and encouragement from those who have dedicated careers and lives
to the pursuit of God’s law.
I did read the vast majority of the article CalgaryBornAgain...but let me tell you something...IF I was a Muslim, Buddhist or Atheist and I found out that a prosecuting lawyer was a product of Regent University I might be a bit scared at his possible perversion to something I dont believe in. You should be scared that you dont find yourself in a Muslim country where they are taught to be Lawyers from a Muslim perspective and get yourself into trouble. What a horrible excuse for a University and what a pathetic excuse for an article. You seriously need to read something beyond apologetics. Free your mind.
The great leader of Regent University...
Mr Pat Robertson.
If you attend Regent University in Virginia Beach be warned that school administration has zero tolerance for dissent, or well maybe humor? Poking fun at the "Great Leader", no not Kim Jong Ill, but Pat Robertson will lead to swift punishment and you might find yourself in a straight jacket too! Just ask second year Regent law student Adam Key...
You know college kids, always "pushing the envelope", taking things too far, always trying to prove a point….ahhh, the days of student activism... Mr. Adam Key, a second year law student at Regent University, made the mistake of poking a little “college fun” at THE CREATOR of Regent University, Mr. Pat Robertson...yeaa, that guy...you know the old guy who claims he once leg pressed 2,000 pounds...or who once used his divine connections to redirected a hurricane from hitting Virginia Beach...yes, that guy! Who would ever think to poke a little fun at him?
Well, apparently Mr. Key didn't read his student handbook? Because the second year law student would have known that posting a picture of Pat lobbing "the bird" on his “facebook” page (albeit I assume a slightly photoshoped picture) could get you booted from school...Remember Adam, people are watching…the place is crawling with informants, even in cyberspace! Therefore Mr. Key found himself in “hot water” when his transgression was exposed to Regent’s Administration. The good folks at Regent didn’t find much humor in Adam’s facebook picture and in matter of fact Mr. Key is now banned from the University.
