"but governments have no business writing anti-sodomy laws."

A states' police power allows them to write laws concerning the health and safety of its citizens. This is not a federal issue.

Of course states have the power to do lots of things. They should not, however, be in the business of regulating the ordinary "health and safety" of the citizenry.

Not everything that's a bad idea needs to be illegal. Just as not everything that's a good idea needs to be required.
