My basic feeling about the Law of Moses [that is the written Law and its Oral commentary in the Talmud] is necessary and sufficient.
That is it is needed and nothing more is needed.
That is all the cults that come along and say the Law of Moses is needed but there is this new thing that is also needed are all wrong. Belief in the Law of Moses [that is the Written and Oral Law] means you believe nothing else is needed.
But that does not means it can't be misused by unscrupulous people. And that does not mean that it is a cure all for all human problems.
That does not mean the Torah is for creating a political state.
