This really says it all. There are moral issues that the law has no business enforcing. There are laws that have nothing to do with morality. Then there are places where the two overlap.

This issue is further confused by the fact that Christians fucked up the word morality for all of us by calling perfectly moral behaviors immoral. But I digress....
