HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity:

No one is being "regulated" by conservative policies on this matter.

Not on that matter. However, if conservative policies that I espouse are a form of "regulation" of others' behavior, I want to have the intellectual honesty to call it that.

There are certain behaviors which are regulated or prohibited for various reasons.

Prostitution and child pornography come to mind. I see no problem with legal prohibitions on such vices, dangerous and damaging activities.

If a legislator decided, as informed by religious-based ethics, to vote to prohibit or regulate such things that is not an unconstitutional "establishment of religion" --

Earlier, at #27 you asked:

What current "conservative" policies "regulate the behavior of others"?

Now, just above, you illustrated two:

"Prostitution and child pornography come to mind. I see no problem with legal prohibitions on such vices, dangerous and damaging activities."

Do you ever give any thought to the intellectual consistency of what you post from minute to minute?

And when we studied logic in college a rhetorical question is not a universal negative proposition as was suggested. That is...following the principles of non-contradiction. If you want to argue that that particular rhetorical question can be converted into the universal negative proposition you suggested was my actual point I will appeal to the Aristotelian umpire of logical rulings for your fraternal correction. Don't try it again. [IRONY]
