"You are the rudest poster I have met on FR"

richtig_faust may be rude in your view, but he has a point. Every law on the books is based on someone's morality. Therefore, it IS a strawman to bring up the 'legislating morality' thing.

I do agree that every law on the books is based on morality of one kind or another. Even libertarian philosophy is based on libertarian morals.

So yeah, I think I needed to have been more specific about what I thought was being legislated, if I wanted my comment to really have weight. So, yes, I concede that richtig has a point.
