just because legal adults do something doesnt make it right, moral or legal.

So who shall judge them, God or Government? I'd side with the former.... and it was under this principle that the United States was founded. When government begins to legislate morality, instead of protecting Liberty and property, then it begins a descent into Tyranny. There are plenty of laws today that are neither just nor moral.

Child porn has no bearing on this discussion and it cannot be used in the 'slippery slope' argument because you are comparing apples and oranges.

You are apparently not aware of America's legal foundation in judeo-christian principles. How do you explain that from the very beginning of this nation's foundation that there has been a paid pastor presiding over the Congress? Or how about In God We Trust on our money? I can go on but I hope you see that your argument holds no weight. It wasnt just any god that the founders built there principles on (like many liberals and atheists will argue) it was the God from the Holy Bible - the God of Jews and Christians. This is historical fact. These same founders would not have agreed that porn entitled "Sex with young girls or Raping women" was free speech. Both may employ adults but they give the impression of a criminal act and fail to meet the standards of decency.

What should the legal age be to be considered an adult? Why not 17 or 15 or how about 12? The reason is because as a SOCIETY we have deemed that 18 is the proper age. This is as much a moral and value assessment as any other. It could be lowered and if it was lowered to lets say 12 (hypothetically) would you say that its ok to allow 12 year olds to be in these films? Of course you wouldnt because it is not moral and against the overall good of our society.
The constitution does not provide the right to all things indecent based on free speech.

If you said that you would consider a 12 year old and adult then I know you have no sense of moral aptitude and I wont waste my time any further.
