I like Cory Doctorow an awful lot, however, I am not a blind adherent of his views. In this article, Cory observes something I think is largely true with one glaring example; as a Christian, I think one law is indeed global. In fact, I think it is not just universal, but superuniversal, and that is this: God exists, and His way supersedes anything else, including the otherwise fascinating observation that all laws are local. 


In short, some great many laws in our world are, indeed, man-made and subjective. It matters not if one culture has a prohibition against pork while I will go out of my way for a McRib sandwich. But that is not to say there is no one objective law that supersedes all these other subjective ones. What matters most is what God says matters. Everything else is secondary to that.
