text: is it possible to break the law that is not inexistence? if god had not given any commandments and there were no rules in society, what would have been the outcome? would the world we live in be worse or better? (well you have three questions i think so i'll answer them all)  (for your title). if you do something bad but it isn't a law, then i think people would count it as "breaking a law" probably because i guess all the laws should ban you from doing bad stuff. of course, you really aren't breaking a law since they didn't say you can't do that thing but people would probably say you did.  (first detail question). if god didn't give any commandments, then we wouldn't really know how much we sin probably because god made the commandments so we would see how much we sin. we can't really follow them so then we would know. if there weren't any rules in society, then i think this world would be way worse. there's laws about not murdering and stealing but people are already stealing and murdering and breaking the laws. think of it when there aren't any rules or laws.  (second detail question). i think the world would be worse but then if you think of it the other way, we would probably think, "maybe some people break the laws to show how much they hate them." maybe that could happen but some laws have to be laws. i'm not really sure how the world would be better but maybe people just think that they're being "controlled" although as i have said before, we need those laws. --  i'm not sure if those answer your questions but it's worth a try. (that was fun =) )
