The truth of this matter is based on the fact that morality is only applicable to the person in one society and in a determined time, given that moral will change depending on the population you are talking about and the period in time you are referring to. Having said that, law should reflect morality as long as this morality is secularized and is not contrary to hard facts or logical reason, therefore the only moment in which a law should not reflect moral is when both moral and the benefit of the people are clashing.

well that's really a question of morals he-he,well what i really mean is how extreme the local government feels about its own morals. and really laws originated from religions. but the first written laws was the code of Hammurabi which was an eye for an eye which if you don't know what that means its the golden rule treat others the way you want to be treated

"Do unto others what you want others to do unto you" Be mean to others if you want them to be mean to you. Respect others if you want them to respect you.
