You obviously are against that 'one sect', but natural law IS the thing. This is what most people consider to be the norm that governs how we behave. It's not written down, it's what you know is right or wrong. Let me give you some examples:

- Raping woman on the street - wrong

- Giving starving person some food - good

- Stealing from your employer - wrong (unless you are not paid or cheated)

- Killing random person - wrong

- Caring for your spause and children - good

and the list goes on

And the general rule, written down by 'that sect' in their book is 'love your neighbor as you love yourself', you should prefer to live among people who really apply this in their life, whenever you share their beliefs or not, because it's so much easier to live among such people than to live among selfish people who will not hesitate to harm you if only their actions go unpunished.
