I agree the workshop is obscene,but leave it to the people to choose what should be regulated based on Morality.Based on Boycotts,etc. Im pointing out the problems created by attempting to legislate based one's view of whats right and wrong. I havent completely lost faith in society yet.I think they will know whats right and wrong and make choices not to participate,endorse,support things they dont agree with.

This is a recipe for anarchy if there ever was one. I am sure that many muderers consider killing to be a moral act. If we leave it "up to them", we will be in a very dangerous place indeed.

The government regulates morality all of the time. That is the purpose of things called "laws".

Name one law, good or bad, that is NOT fundamentally based on a moral principle.
