Of course the Government is going to moderate morality. The thing most of you miss is simple, the PEOPLE vote representatives in office to enforce thier views on the government. This is how the system works. If the Reps are doing their JOBS as they are supposed to, then "morality" will be enforced, and that will be the morality of the voters. Should that morality change, on wahtever subject, those currently in office will be replaced by the voters with people who will change things.

That's how it's supposed to work. The real monkey wrench in all of this are activist judges and special interest groups, like the ACLU for example.

Take that case out west with the Cross that's been on a hill top for 50 plus years, it was all fine and dandy till Clinton made that land "federal land" now the ACLU wants the cross DOWN. Here's the rub, they win, and Arlington National Cemetary will be forced to remove ALL the crosses there, as well as any other FEDERAL property (think National Cemetaries)

I don't think anyone would sya that is a pervailing view of the voters to see such taking to an extreme like this, but the ACLU will, and they knwo the right judges to go too, and the system, gets hosed.


Einstein's "Theory of Relativity" is still being challenged to this day, but by consensus Global Warming is a fact... that's REAL science at work, why didn't Albert just go that route?
