Wow. That's an odd definition of laws.

I don't think you picked that pov up from the Federalist Papers or the Constitution, but what the hey? You believe what you believe, and that's what drives your very strange perspective on right and wrong.

Nothing absolute. Nothing Judeo-Christian. Nothing the Founders said. Just what you FEEL like you are willing to do.

At least I know now where you're coming from, PapaBear. It's weird, but now your posts make more sense.

There is broad consensus that stopping murder is vital to the survival of society. Therefore there is hardly any opposition to laws against it.

There is broad consensus that stopping robbery is vital to the survival of society. Therefore there is hardly any opposition to laws against it (outside of the segment that likes the idea of robbing the middle class).

There is NOT any broad consensus that stopping porn is vital to the survival of society. The existence of non-consensus on this thread is proof of that. FreeRepublic represents some of the most conservative opinion in the US. If the idea is controversial here, then it will be REJECTED by the mainstream population, along with the candidate promoting it.

Advocate for banning porn all you want. If you cannot FIRST convince 51% of the voting public to agree with you, then it is a dead issue.
