If a "sister of a god"[nun] open a tavern, or enter a tavern to drink, then shall this woman be burned to death.
- cause being burned to death for going into a bar is crazy.

If a [noble-]man put out the eye of another [noble-]man, his eye shall be put out
- i just beleive that you should treat others how you would want to be treated, regardless of what you get in return

One of his laws we could use today if we modified it would be law 196: "If a [noble-]man put out the eye of another [noble-]man, his eye shall be put out." We already use this today within the justice system as the death penalty. In extreme cases of murder, if you take a life of another, you are put to death.

Values & Priorities

These laws suggest that they tried to be fair and have the punishments match the action and they thought they were reasonable to do.
