I absolutely agree with you.

The argument I was using is that which I use when the subject is brought up in a non-Christian setting. It’s for people for whom the moral objections are meaningless.

That’s why it was preceded by *If*.

This country was at its greatest when a whole bunch of stuff that is legal now was illegal, thus defeating the argument that making moral stuff like that legal has no ramifications.

It does because it never was about simply lifestyle choices, but rather about tearing down the moral fabric of our society.

Their argument of what we do in the privacy of our own bedrooms is nobody’s business was the first step on the slippery slope and a whole bunch of people who were wusses and didn’t want to be accused of being *intolerant* caved.

And look where we are now.

I could not agree more. Well said.
