Is entering data that includes man-made rulings contrary to Sharia considered a sin, especially given a lack of conviction in these rulings?

It is not permissible to record data pertaining to man-made laws that contravene Islamic Sharia, because doing so constitutes cooperation in sin and aggression, which is prohibited by the Almighty's saying: "And do not cooperate in sin and aggression." Furthermore, a lack of conviction in these rulings does not make it permissible to act upon them, for acquiescence to a ruling that contradicts Allah's law is disbelief.
