And even if we were a society with no compunction about a Creator or religion, wouldn't it benefit us all to adhere to basic tenets of goodness? At the least from a health standpoint?
Sure. Do you want to give the government the power to enforce basic tenets of goodness at gunpoint?
And what will you do when that government decides something you do (such as going to church) goes against such "basic tenets of goodness?"
""No government law can make an immoral person moral.""
Well, I think that by condemning something that is wrong, our government sets a morality standard that is followed by people.
I am NOT a Libertarian but your point is well made. I am anti-prohibition on marijuana and an ex cop to boot.
On this subject, however, I will remain on the sidelines. [In the Dallas police academy I did an essay and speech on why I thought prostitution should be legalized...LOL] That's as far as I'll take it. I'm not going to address "porn."
BTW I indulge in neither activity.
I do not appreciate the insults directed at the original poster though unless someone knows something I don't.
