	As a sidelight, the Jewish view is that non-Jews are bound
	only by these seven laws; the full set of Biblical commandments
	applies only to Jews.

Does this view have scriptural basis or is it just generally
recognized by Jews?

If God gave legitimacy to this view very early on... then
it lets non-Jews "off the hook" for a number of things
widely regarded as sinfull.
