Do you like Sharia law? Do you think that it is possible that Christians, Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists could share your reasoning? If so, why?
I am not religious but I completely understand why non-Islamist would not want to be subject to death, slavery or living as an animal for not believing. When I say non-Islamist I mean anyone regardless of religion or even those that don't believe in religion.
Religion in most cases sees life as invaluable. Modern Christian dominated nations tend to value freedom. People like Freedom and they like it when laws are focused on the value of their own life so they support nations with religious laws. Sometimes, like in the case of Islam or in cases where a ruler is considered a kind of God the obsession with religious-derived laws exists because of brainwashed peoples in an authoritarian nation without freedom of speech or press.
The reason why people do not support laws based solely on the lack of God and thus no inalienable rights is that without some morality their life has no innate value and thus may be discarded without consequence.
