the government does not belong in the bedroom

You should reflect more on your statements. The state does have a right to be in the bedroom when there is a rape, incest, or pedophilia--wouldn't you say? They should also have a right to outlaw sodomy, since it has great social and monetary cost to the public.

There is no such concept as the "right to privacy" under a Christian philosophy since God is omniscient. There is also no constitutional "right to privacy" (which has been created by activist judges) but there is a clause that states clearly--for the general welfare.

BTW, Christian "decency" standards are never the same as the radical feminists' concepts of decency.

Yeah, yeah. Cute. I'm talking about consenting adults.

"They should also have a right to outlaw sodomy, since it has great social and monetary cost to the public."

No you're wrong. How about an argument next time? (And is that same sex sodomy only, or all sodomy?)

"There is no such concept as the "right to privacy" under a Christian philosophy since God is omniscient."

Given that I am not a Christian, why should I care what Christian phislosophy says?

"There is also no constitutional "right to privacy" (which has been created by activist judges)"

Who's talking about right to privacy? I'm talking about small government not telling people how to live. If you disagree with small government, then you are a leftist. And I don't care if you couch your leftism in Jesus or Marx.

"BTW, Christian "decency" standards are never the same as the radical feminists' concepts of decency."

Funny, I can't tell the difference when either group starts whining about music videos/music/movies/TV/womens' fashions/etc.
