Do you think that maybe government shouldn't be involved in marriage at all?
I’m not sure it’s their place to tell someone who they can marry. But they’ll always want to know if anything for monetary and inheritance reasons.

No. Another person is not your property because they own themselves.
It is the nature and flaw of mob mentality.

What about harming an unborn baby? At what age is it acceptable and how do you justify the belief?
Once there is a beating heart, it is no longer an issue of morality. It is a living being. Hell, once the child is at 24 weeks, it has a higher than 50% chance of survival as a periviable birth (and there are stories of survival at 20/22 weeks)
Prior to the heartbeat, I still believe the child is a living being; but also acknowledge that there is enough I do not understand and can see where many may feel there are some legitimate arguments.

The non human ones, yes.
That was easy.

America is going down a very scary, slippery slope. Where is the morality line?
It sounds like you'd rather slide the other direction to something like the Taliban is looking to create.

You can go as basic as go to Wikipedia to understand the basis of the American legal system.
And how you just going to pass around "pedophilia is trying to be passed right now" without thinking twice about how illegitimate of a claim that is? Like, "oh, let me just toss out that pedophilia is being legalized because someone at church mentioned it". I mean, ffs people, use some common sense when you reading bullshite propaganda or talking to people who are spreading the bullshite propaganda that they read.

I've often wondered if we would ever come to a point that animal "slavery" would become a legit topic and/or discussion
*I assume its already out there to some degree
which one would be first? animal slavery or robot slavery?

hell I don't even mean this, I mean like basic pet ownership

All criminal law as are based upon morality. This has been true since the practice of codification began. Murder, Rape,Assault,Theft have always been “immoral” and codified as criminal acts accordingly.

No co-ownership in your view?
Volitional beings own themselves.

Well, no. But sure, you can think that.

quote:They believe they are morally right, and even honoring the commands of God.
then they are right?
That just supports my point that morals and the laws that flow from them are determined by majority opinion.

It’s just man trying to do away with the consequences. Nothing new. It’s the steady quest of man since Cane and Abel. Do away with God and do away with the consequences, neither of which actually go away.

Correct, as long as it’s 2 non-related, consenting adults.
