I'm Christian, and i'm rather unsure of why you're saying that. First of all, there's no mention of the revelations of God made to the Hebrews. That's enough to send my eyes rolling.
Secondly, there's no reference to greek and roman sources.
Lastly, there's no discussion of the way in which Christianity is not contained by or limited by the modern notion of justice. Frankly, the justice of God is rather outside humankind's practice... Therefore, to hold up the religion of Christianity (and i say religion in a pejorative Barth-ian sense of the word) as a source of justice is nothing more than rank idolatry.
