Yes. The problem is, if you look at the biggest disagreements humans have had - slavery, abortion, regional independence, whom to tax, how much the state should help people who can't help themselves, how much clothing women should wear, whether women should work outside the home - none of them can be resolved in this method. Religion, possibly; but only to the extent that a religion's followers care about the end goal of getting into heaven, and not to the extent that they have internalized its values.
