  Think about it, if morality is not absolute then neither is justice.

  
  Laws are reviewed and changed as a result of debate. Certain religious rights and wrongs are written down as absolute.

  The thing is, law is law, for example at tis time it is illegal to murder somebody... But religious texts can be open to interpretation and people can pick and choose which part of the texts they wish to live by.
