Religion and law
What is the distinction between a religious act and a legal act?
Why does religion require that religious acts be accompanied by the motivation of 'acceptance in God' while the law does not require a person to pay taxes out of motivation? What is the root of the division?

The root of the division is that the law is teleological (purposeful-consequential), while the halakha is deontological (willing and doing). Therefore, intention is important in morality as well. In the third book of the trilogy, I think I explain this.
