Moral laws are always in-line with civil laws.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Moral laws and civil laws are not always in-line with each other. Moral laws are based on personal beliefs, values, and principles, while civil laws are established by society to regulate behavior and maintain order. There can be instances where moral laws conflict with civil laws, such as civil laws allowing certain actions that may be considered immoral by some individuals or groups. Therefore, it is not accurate to say that moral laws are always in-line with civil laws.
