My position is this. The Founders when writing the Constitution based it upon a moral and religious people. Adams himself even said as much. If morality is gone, then the Constitution has a problem being applied because people will use it as an excuse for anything. The BOR has been used to justify everything from abortion to beastiality. Surely you aren't suggesting that the Founders had those things in mind as 'rights' when they wrote the document?

No, I am not suggesting that. But my position is that it is not the business of the government what goes on between me and my wife (in my case) regarding sexual activity and practices. As long as it is not occuring in public view.
