That is simply referring the question of morality to accepted moral majority. The law isn't an arbiter of truth, simply the stronghand of the majority. I am questioning the basis upon which the majority "the law" functions. Where does the views of the majority have their basis? Many laws are at best questionable at worst immoral, depending upon where you derive your moral thinking. The Law and morality are most definately intertwined but to equate the two is false. This is why subjective morality is questonable, moral majority is not moral truth.
