Suppose my tradition states I must sacrifice a virgin to Huitzilopochtli every night so that the Sun must rise the next morning. Your tradition sees women in general as the root source of all that's holy. Thus mine is utter anathema to yours Who wins in that case?
And common law itself is a good vantage point....but Jews have their own court systems in England to rule according to Halacha. And there are other traditional law systems like Shariah and Indian tribal laws (because I like self-parody as much as the next fellow). Whose law system is superior?
