This results in what may be seen as moral relativism or the privatisation of morality. One person's morality being as good as another's, the community may not adopt moral standards in legislation. This viewpoint is often expressed by the common and wholly fallacious remark that "You can't legislate morality." Indeed . . . we legislate little else.--Robert Bork
Most of our laws are against immoral behavior. What's your problem with that?
Rule by a 'moral majority' will infringe on our Constitutional rights to life, liberty or property. Bet on it.
Mojave quotes Bork on the issue [out of context]:
" -- This results in what may be seen as moral relativism or the privatisation of morality. One person's morality being as good as another's, the community may not adopt moral standards in legislation.

--Robert Bork
Of course we "legislate morality" in that limited sense, -- within Constitutional bounds, -- as I'm sure Bork would agree.
