"Whoever appeals against the law of his fellow man is either a fool or a coward. Whoever cannot take care of themself without that law is both. For a wounded man shall say to his assailant, 'If I live, I will kill you. If I die, you are forgiven'. Such is the rule of honor." -Opening for the Lamb of God song, "Omerta"
From my point of view all I can say is: You need something to follow or else you are lost, therefore God is whom we shall follow, a reliable leader that cannot die.
