Jesus didn't have a problem with the law, per se; what he had a problem with was the way the law was being executed by the authorities, presumably supported by the theologists of their time.  To safeguard against this, Jesus set up the papacy to cut through all the analysis by the various interpreters.  That's our faith.  If you don't believe that, then you're in the wrong religion.  This type of standardization is what accounts for the longevity of the Church, and, as I see it, the re-visiting of this concept with the invitation of Protestants to Vatican II and its execution is why the Church seems to be falling apart.  Everybody's a theologian now: Cafeteria Catholicism.
