Who is the arbiter of "natural law"? If both sides of the civil war believed in natural law (I haven't looked into it, but your article says so) it must be subject to interpretation.

It's purely a philosophical discussion. One might argue that there is only1 natural law. All Living things will die. That's it. Everything else is merely an agreement among those involved. Even the days of the week are merely an agreement. There are groups that have no concept as to different days of the week. Native Americans-Indians- had no such consideration. They did not even have Clocks and no concept of different hours of the day.

Maybe, but if you forecast "darker tonight, brighter tomorrow", you are unlikely to be wrong.
