Ah, but there you hit on the common misconception of what liberty is.
The founders of this Republic would find it strange to think that someone could possibly believe that liberty ever entailed the right to do evil.
How far do you think your little campaign to mainstream deviancy would have made it in their generation, or in any other generation in this country up to the present?

Yikes. Where is the term "evil" defined in our constitution? Who gets to decide whose lifestyle is evil? And if you live in a state where those in power get to decide what's evil, then you should
expect that someday the winds may blow in a different direction, i.e. people with a definition of evil you don't agree with may take power and criminalize
your lifestyle.
This is
precisely what's happening now. As our gay brothers and sisters have acquired political power, they have learned how to use the power of the state to
their advantage. Do you blame them?
How much better it would be to have a truly secular state, one in which none of us could legislate against the lifestyles of any other.
