"Morality and legality are often (but not always) two very different things."

I realize we have two main objections going on here -- the moral crowd and the constitutional crowd. It appears from Thomas' remark that he doesn't agree with the morality viewpoint.

I'm not sure exactly here I fall as to whether the court should have intervened, but I know I don't like it that my own state has a law that allows the police to arrest me and my wife if they were to catch us performing a certain sex act in the privacy of our bedroom. I know the police aren't likely to break down our door looking for sodomy violations, but that doesn't make it right. And yes, I've expressed my opinion to my state representatives.

It appears from Thomas' remark that he doesn't agree with the morality viewpoint.

Agreed, in so far as that viewpoint is legislated.

I don't think it says one way or the other how he feels about it morally.

I think the behavior at issue is clearly immoral, but I agree with Justice Thomas that is should probably not be illegal. They way the Court went about legalizing it, however, is despicable.
