Our ancestors wrote it down, but where did it come from? From them? No, such creative inspiration does not originate from human consciousness, it comes from a deeper source. All artists know this. These laws, which are designed to allow a human society to thrive and grow, came from some higher source of inspiration. Don't want to call it God? Why not? What's so terrible about admitting that there is a creative, inspirational source of good in the universe that can help and direct us, if we listen to it?
