Moses was not the first to deem that killing is "wrong." Long before Moses, killing for example was counter productive to most species of animals, until we become over populated. Stealing wasn't illegal, but if you did it, you would be attacked by the person you stole from. What this means is, Moses may have written them on paper, but the bible is not the basis for human law, it's productivity.
I'm going along with Term's agrgument that laws are based on man's interpretation of the Bible.  The most basic law of the Bible is the commandments, along with the two other commandments given by Jesus.  It was Term who alluded to current laws being influenced by the Bible.  Also, stop trying to use productivity as the basis for murder being wrong.  Murdering someone means that you take their life, and therefore they breathe no more.  This action also hurts loved ones of the victim, and in turn starts war.  Throwing productivity in there only backs the principle of slave ownership and that a lost slave to death means that productivity reduces.

Correction, most of the earth is uninhabitable. Many places are not living conditions deemed suitable for human life yet, people live there. Why? Because they can't go anywhere else. Don't tell me it's ignorant, when people don't get food, because they grow any where they live, or they can't afford it. It means there's too many of us and we need a pandemic, since we are long overdue.
Many, but not most. And why can they not go anywhere?  People have been migrating since the dawn of man, and for what purposes? To find sustainable life in other places.

Also, there are food shortages in the world here and there. We have plenty of food here in America but it is sometimes hard to get it to famined regions due to war and corrupt governments. (N. Korea, again) We have the food, it’s getting it there that is the problem.  We have so much abundance in the USA that some people believe that our government actually pays farmers not to plant to help keep prices higher.

There are currently about 6 Billion people on this planet. Lets put them, four to house on a quarter acre of land. This is the typical size of a traditional suburban lot. Now, physically how big is the suburb of houses we’ve built?
So, 6,000,000,000 people; four to a house is 1.5 Billion houses.
1.5 Billion Houses on a quarter acre each is 375 Million Acres.
How big is 375 Million Acres? The state of Texas is 171904640 acres.
375 Million Acres is just over twice the size of the State of Texas
It also equates to 3.6 Californias.  Alaska at 420 Million Acres could hold them all and still have 45 million acres left over.

Now this, is what I call ignorant. If you want to live in a world of just houses, fine be me, pack all the people in the world into Alaska. Where are they going to farm, hunt, get medical treatment and what infrastructure will they use to get there? You need to rethink your calculations and the amount of habitable land we actually have.


No, I don't want to live in a world of just houses, but don't think for one second that all of the possible habitable places in the world are already occupied by people.  My calculations are just an example to paint a picture; and that is that we still, even with our current population, have plenty of room to accomodate everyone.  

Habitable land on earth for humans: 15,641,597,556 acres

In sum, only about one fourth of all the land on earth, or somewhat more than 12 million square miles, is arable.

Today, over half of the arable land in the world is in fact not under cultivation. Bringing the unused land into service in many cases would require huge investments of money and effort, and would do considerable damage to the environment. For example, only about 28% of the arable land on the African continent is used for growing crops. Immense tracts of forests or jungles would have to be cleared to bring the rest of the arable land on that continent to productive use.

Thus, only about one eighth of each imaginary plot of land distributed to each person is land which is under cultivation. In effect, each person has a piece of land about 26,000 square feet (a square 161 feet on each side or just a bit more than ½ an acre) at his or her disposal on which to grow all that he or she needs.
