There are morals that are consistant to our society (murder, theft, rape, etc.), and there are morals that are philosophy specific (homsexuality, polygamy, premarital sex, etc.). Let's not get the two confused. I personally believe that it is very much wrong to interfere with foreign powers, but that is my personal belief. Obviously, our government does not share that moral. It is simply a belief that fits with my philosophy, but not our society. Murder in the first degree is wrong, socially, and with most philosophies. Homosexual marriage is wrong socially, but only with a certian philosophy is it bad. Why should an ancient text stop two people who are in love from being legally accepted as married? When tecoyah was saying "The only reasons I see for forbidding such a marriage is religious, or based on fear.
Neither of which belong in government.", he meant there are philosophical beliefs that are meant to be seperated from the government. I hope that cleard it up for you, mused76.
