Is there a word for the Christian version of Sharia law?

Many people want to impose biblical laws on good secular people. Can this be called Sharia law, or is there a specific word for it?

    I think they like to call it God's Law. Go figure.

    Sharia is more than that, it's a legal system that goes beyond the Koran. It's similar to Jewish law, or maybe to Catholic Canon Law. There isn't as much of it with protestants - that kind of thing was one thing protestants didn't like.

    I don't think so... there are some things in the OT... but... the whole "Christ" part of Christian kind of didn't set up an order of laws exactly, and in fact changed some old laws...

    so not that I know of...

    You would have to be beyond idiotic to assume that your rights are restricted by Christians like they are restricted in many Muslim countries.
