Morality can be legislated idiot; why can't you kill, rape or steal?

OK lemme see ........You are against abortion and/or gay marriage because you consider them to be immoral and attempts to legalize them is legalizing immorally Right ?[ yes i know abortion is still legal ]
Morality is legislated all the time. Child labor laws are morality laws- yes there is more to morality than sex- Allowing an individual to Conscientiously Object to fighting in a war is legislated morality Laws that prohibit cruelty to animals are also legislated morality'
The phrase "You can't legislate morality" refers to the regulation of sexual acts and or behaviors between two or more CONSENTING ADULTS.
A law that can't practically and fairly be enforced is useless.

Fortunately, immoral ACTS that affect the lives of others can be outlawed by our legislators, who are duly elected to represent us.

Gee, what a clever question. Did you get this one from the back of your Jesus Saves comic book?
Spewing "clever" hate-based messages is kind of living on the dark side don't you think?
Lighten up dude. There is a whole big world just waiting to give you a giant hug. And some of them are gay like me!
