Proverbs 1

From last week's reading:
"Fear of the LORD is the foundation of true knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline."
-Proverbs 1:7 (NLT)

Leviticus

It seems to appear here that God is basically inventing a religion for these people, and it's really detailed, and kind of disgusting for those of you who aren't into graphic descriptions of animal sacrifice. What's this all about? Why couldn't God just say, "Love me, love each other" as it seems like he does other places in the Bible?
