【摘要】：本文选取了西方社会历史发展过程中的三个场景来论述法律与宗教的关系,在人类产生的早期,信仰就开始发挥作用,它促使宗教的产生。宗教在诞生之后便一直发挥着对人类进行精神引导的作用,这一作用没有因为法律的发展壮大而渐渐衰落。法律虽然具有自治性,但是其需要人类精神的支撑,因此法律之中不但需要理性,而且需要人类信仰的力量。宗教对西方社会的法律产生的影响不仅存在于制度方面,也存在于精神方面。宗教传统思想和仪式当中包含着法律思想和法律程序化的实践。自然法思想是人类关于法律的古老思想,在其中既包含了人类的理性又包含着人类对于崇高价值的追求,自然法思想与生俱来具有强大的生命力,但是我们也不可忽视宗教在自然法思想的发展过程中所起到的积极作用。即便是在宗教势力异常强大的中世纪,基督教神学也对自然法思想的发展壮大起到了举足轻重的作用。作为一种重要的社会现象,法律的产生和发展在很大程度上是与宗教结合在一起的。法律不但必须完成对现实社会秩序的规范和调控,也必须对这一法律体系管辖范围内的民众给予导向性的指引。法律这两方面的作用不存在先后顺序,彼此之间相互影响,缺少其中任何一个方面都是不完满的。因此,对法律宗教之维的思考对于我们具有不可忽视的意义。
[Abstract]:This paper selects three scenes in the historical development of western society to discuss the relationship between law and religion. In the early days of human being, belief began to play a role, which promoted the emergence of religion. Since its birth, religion has been playing the role of spiritual guidance to human beings, which has not gradually declined because of the development of the law. Although law is autonomous, it needs the support of human spirit, so it needs not only rationality, but also the power of human belief. The influence of religion on the law of western society exists not only in the system but also in the spirit. The religious tradition thought and the ritual contain the legal thought and the legal procedure practice. The thought of natural law is the ancient thought of human being about law, which contains both human reason and the pursuit of lofty value. The thought of natural law is born with strong vitality. But we should not ignore the positive role that religion plays in the development of natural law thought. Christian theology played an important role in the development of natural law thought even in the Middle Ages. As an important social phenomenon, the emergence and development of law is to a large extent associated with religion. Law must not only regulate and regulate the real social order, but also give guidance to the people within the jurisdiction of this legal system. The roles of the two aspects of the law do not exist in order, they interact with each other, and the absence of any of them is incomplete. Therefore, the reflection on the dimension of legal religion is of great significance to us.
