Dopertarians seem unaware that abortion, adultery, and pretty much all of their sexual immorality was strictly regulated in 1870. History is not their forte.

No, no you’ve got it all backwards. You see, back then those things were all approved. It was only later that the man quashed them.

The Constitution provides for liberty. It is up to the culture to provide morality.

Adultery was tolerated, and prostitution was legal a whole lot of places. I’m generally with you on the abortion thing, but willing to leave it to state law.

The downsides of oppressive government (particularly Federal government) regulation far outweigh the benefits. Government, in particular, should have nothing to do with marriage - it is a religious ceremony.
