There, I fixed that for you.
I don't care what happens, concerning this particular piece of legislation, honestly. However, let's get something straight: You cannot trust humans to live in a society civilly, without some sort of moral backbone. That backbone comes from the state, church, traditional values, or what have you. In the end, men are beasts without principles. Stripping away all of the traditional morals and values is never a good idea, because there is no consensus on anything. Entropy is then the least of your worries. After a while, groups will start to form and bicker among each other, possibly leading to violence and/or excommunication.
Your correction seems to be at odds with your views. Perhaps, you meant "A society which does not legislate morality is a chaotic society".
