I think they are.

Then lay 'em on us. Show me how you can prove that sex with a child is wrong, according to the "law of nature". There are 10 year olds in college. Prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt that they lack the ability to sexually consent. They can understand quantum physics but they don't have the ability to consent?

according to the "law of nature".

Please show me where I have articulated any "laws of nature"?
To me they are just as useless as the "laws of god" when attempting to exercise your faculties as a reasoning human being.

Putting words in other peoples' mouths is a bad strategy; it betrays a tendency to control and insert dogma as proof when examining the role of dogma itself in a discussion.

You are frapster are pursuing the same strategy and it is doomed to fail:
That the appeal to religious zealotry is the only certain way to arrive at these truths.

Simply another way to say "because it is"...
A non-answer.

And another way to say "I give up".
