I agree. Laws pretty much ARE the legislating of morality, so it looks like it can be done after all. Morality is an opinion about how right or wrong, beneficial or harmful, something is. Laws are there to control those things. That's not to say they are always in agreement with everyone's morality, but they do enforce a moral code.
I'm really shitty at giving kudos and rep. That's because I would be inconsistent in remembering to do them, and also I don't really want it to show if any favouritism is happening. Even worse would be inconsistencies causing false favouritisms to show. So, fuck it. Just assume that I've given you some good rep and a number of kudos, and everyone should be happy...
