No, we need rules laws and regulations for a society to be able to function wihtout chaos. We don't need commandments at all.

I'm sure inside we all know what is truly right and wrong

Let the Common sense decide what's right or wrong!If it fails then one may need prescribed rules....

According to Thomas Hobbes, one of the greatest voices during the creation of the American government, regulations and commandments are vital to society

Of course we need those things, the human race as a whole are people who need regulated. Just for the simple fact that with thee amount of crime and murders (I know murder is a crime) and just low down rotten people there are in this world, I'm sure your a model citizen and all but without these laws or comandments cause some people take those more seriously than that of man's laws, choas would be the last of our worries who takes over? Us or the animals

We need all the rules but right and wrong? Isn't that just perspective? A crazy [sorry to offend anyone] person or someone with less morals and more self love won't have the same view as right or wrong. It's true these regulations and rules are essential for a less chaotic life but the general idea of 'good' and 'bad' and right/wrong is what the person thinks. The rules and regulations is what humanity / society put out there, verbally / written / etc.

Nope not needed IF everything was done by each person within the boundaries of the 3 basic and fundamental principles which were the cornerstones of this nation or I should say former nation ... to borrow an axiom : when you STEAL from Peter to pay Paul sooner or later you gotta pay the piper and you have stolen from us for others long enough ... . Fraud, Theft, Murder and Extortion is still Fraud, Theft, Murder and Extortion no matter how many "LAWS" you make to make it look "LEGAL" ... ~Nemo~

We don't necessarily need rules and laws to know what is right or wrong, but we need them to try to ensure that the world runs in an orderly and hopefully, fair way. Unfortunately, it's not always that easy. Some people think the rules are meant for others, not them.

Laws and commandments are necessary but what really shows you right from wrong and principles. Once yo understand the principles behind things, then you don't even need the rules if you are concerned about doing right. Then again understanding the principles behind justice, mercy, righteousness, kindness, love are just too complicated for many people, or they don't care enough
