>>How they run the business of America does.

You suggesting the business of America should be run without a moral compass?
 
"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens. ...
 
...reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle. "
--From President George Washinton's farewell address, 1796


"I KNOW BUT ONE CODE OF MORALITY FOR MEN WHETHER ACTING SINGLY OR COLLECTIVELY"
--
Thomas Jefferson


Jefferson's code of morality did not include tolerance for homosexual perversions of nature.  Do you think Jefferson was wrong?

I think Jefferson was more concerned with American Independence and the Bill of Rights. He, too, picked the more important battles to wage legislatively.

Do you think Jefferson was wrong?
