Logic and reasoning
Law is not always concerned with promoting morality, but at the very least, it
should never promote immorality. Immoral laws will be ignored by the populace.
The law of human is derived from religion, religion is the basic grounds on which the morality is set, as
the very first basis of any law was set by the religion, in the initial times the law and morality was not
different, they were equal as the morality and law were the same thing back then, with the development of
the society from communities into nations the law has changed drastically as the system has advanced for
justice which has derived morality apart from the law.
The system of justice after the government has advanced has changed as the people now live secularly,
instead of living in communities, people live in diversity having multiple communities and cultures
living together, this has caused the grounds of morality to be unequal which has forced law to derive
morality apart, now the law can be based on morality but it isn't necessary for a law to based on morality,
instead it should be based on equity. For example the aborton as a birth control, this caused a catastrophic
event in the history of western world as this was an immoral law and people at large opposed it, this
showed us that immoral laws will not be accepted by the public at large and would cause chaos in
between the government and the people. Despite not being moral the laws should not be immoral for the
public to accept it. The laws can be amoral as well and public would not mind the law to be amoral as it
would not conflict with people’s interest and going against their moral ideas would be going against
religion and we have seen the greatest tragedies of the world to occur due to religion.
To conclude, the laws would be opposed by the public if they are immoral as they would be against the
basic fundamental of that society, as we live in a democracy and the basic of a democracy is “for the
people, of the people, by the people” this clearly shows that a state in democracy run by the will of
people, as it will violate the basic moral of its citizen then the citizen would either reject the law or would
either reject the government
Lawyers need to understand logical reasoning if they are going to be able to understand
law itself, because most laws, most of the time, are based on logic.
Lawyers need to understand logic as the logic is the understanding between wrong and write and is
thinking of rationality, in the times we are living in rationality is the biggest factor of determining
anything, including law. Law these days are based on rationality and logic because the world we live in
now is a democratic society, where the laws are made through joint committees and through calculation,
instead of being made by a monarch that would enforce any law as he wished. Furthermore, logic is
essential for lawyers because the main purpose a lawyer is to understand and argue for the law, a lawyer
needs to interpret the law and the intention of the law making body merely through the word available to
him, this requires a high understanding of logic as the would interpret these arguments and would then
