Sure there is something socially wrong with it, just like there is something socially wrong with setting a table with the knife on the left. Lots of things that are legal are "socially wrong."

Given that everything in life is quantifiable, would you not agree that placing the silverwear in a manner Martha Stewart would disdain, is several orders of magnitude less 'socially wrong' than yanking it to CyberCindy KiddiePack 7.0?

Without knowing anything about this case, my guess is that it's legal under the Child Pornography Act, but it's still obscene. Perhaps the side that was against it brought suit on the wrong grounds.

I disagree with the preamble of your sentence but would agree with the remainder. Now, if everything is quantifiable, at what quantity of social wrongness should something become illegal?
