"The Law of Objectivity: Do not judge people by socially conceived principles
The Law of Protection: Do not distort the justice due to a pagan, atheist or weak believer "
Determining if someone is a "weak" believer is a judgement call based on a socially conceived principle.
Furthermore,
"The Law of Non-Confrontation: Do not offend or alienate others"
By terming people "weak" believers you are alienating them.
The choice to call these "laws" and to capitalize the first letter of each word seems pretentious.
There is no connection between ambition and either optimism or pessimism - so that just sounds odd - like you did not know what ambition means.
Why put limits or conditions on compassion? Shouldn't it be extended to all regardless of their intentions or their efforts?
Similarly - Non-violence should be applied to more than just emotional violence don't you think?
Liberty is oddly puritan rather than Buddhist - There are more things to be "free of" than just pleasures.
How does "faith" relate to social obligations? Faith is trust or confidence in someone or something in religion it is trust in the doctrines of a religion, based on spiritual apprehension rather than evidence. It is not an "obligation" - unless you imagine yourself to be God and therefore feel obligated to fulfill God's obligations as a creator and therefore parent of creation.
Independence is about not being dependent on someone else - it does not relate to non-manipulation.
Ok - I give up. You need to read a dictionary - these words don't relate to the names of your laws.
