In reality, there is no legitimate age of consent for intrinsic evils like pornography and abortion.

Intrinsic evils should be criminalized. The only subject for debate are the penalties that should be applied.

Are these the only "intrinsic evils" which should be criminalized? Or are there others as well? Just curious.

Most intrinsic evils, like theft and murder, are already criminalized, but as our society has degenerated morally, we have begun to decriminalize intrinsic evils like adultery, sodomy, abortion and pornography.
