Never understimate the power of sin to corrupt. Never.

Sin will corrupt. Corruptors will sin. Some sins are crimes. Other sins are not. Not all sins concern other human beings.

"Sin will corrupt. Corruptors will sin. Some sins are crimes. Other sins are not. Not all sins concern other human beings."

That's a pretty deep point, IMO. As an example, California Police Officers spend a lot of time, manpower, and resources suppressing prostitution, entrapping customers, and towing or seizing their vehicles. The neighboring State of Nevada simply allows some counties to legalize prostitution. Some states punish sin, others profit from it. If there is one other consensual adult crime which the court is likely to strike down, it will be in this area.
