[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 341015, member: 9789"] It is more complicated than that. Folks want separation of church and state but only when it is convenient and fits their needs. You can't take away people's belief systems. Their morality guides the way they govern... and the majority rules. If the majority of folks vote legislatures in that are against a particular morality that has a major moral implication such as child pornography, polygamy, or same sex marriages than you will see restrictive laws passed to prohibit the moral objection. So - break down just the examples above. Which ones really flame you? Is it OK to pick and choose? Laws change as societies move toward a different belief system. So ... It is a slow process that at times, may take more than one generation to change. Legislatures have to break through the "moral turpitude" ceiling. In the process they may be labeled. Sometimes it takes extreme courage to push on and fight the judgement of society to do what is correct. [/QUOTE]
