Professor Lee Strang discusses the breadth of the natural law tradition, which includes both religious and non-religious thinkers. The basic premises of natural law are rational and don’t require a belief in a divine being. Professor Strang cites John Finnis’ Natural Law and Natural Rights as an excellent presentation of the core natural law tradition which includes, but does not assume, a religious viewpoint.
Lee J. Strang is the John W. Stoepler Professor of Law & Values at the University of Toledo College of Law.
