Obviously not, being that the majority of the country voted for the "evil" man.
Or the majority of people are evil.
There are many other reasons though. People voted for him because they trusted the lies he and his administration told them. Hopefully, as more and more people come to realize that they were lied to, they will come to understand that he really is evil.
Jar, laws are passed from our ability to empathize/sympathize with others being victimized. Our entire code of law stems directly from a moral framework.
Your first sentence can stand on its own. The second sentence is unneeded.
It is also incorrect.
Laws are passed for a number of reason, most totally unrelated to morality.
A good example are speed limits. If the speed limit is 30 MPH it is 30 MPH regardless of whether or not there is ANY valid reason for it. It is 30 MPH when the road is totally empty or when it is so clogged with traffic that no movement is possible at any speed.
But that's your opinion. According to you, we live in a world full of moral relativity. Naturally, when a relativist tells me about this or that is evil, my first reaction is to tell them, "So what? What is your opinion supposed to mean to me?"
That appears to be the stock answer from Biblical Christians.
Everything revolves around what's in it for them.
The US is one of the only nations on planet earth that is concerned with the lives of innocent people. I mean, you do realize that if we were as bad and mean as many claim that we could simply carpet bomb Iraq and be done with it, right? But the thing staying our hand is the lessons learned from Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Unfortunately, the enemy is well aware of rules of engagement policies, which cares more about the African lousewart than it does its own troops.
Not only totally irrelevant, but a slanderous attack as well. Your response does not address in anyway what I posted and also implies that opposing an unjust war is equvalent to not caring for the troops.
Classic misrepresentation of the Christian Right Cult of Ignorance there guy.
Oh, so people get married just because?
Tradition. Indoctrination. Greed. Fear. Hope. Escape. Fantasy.
Uh-huh, and why is it illegal? Think about it. If laws didn't come from some moral framework, then laws would be completely nonsensical. Obviously it is illegal to molest little children because we find it morally reprehensible.
Nonsense. Also yet another example of rank dishonesty on your part.
The initial point you raised was on incest. Incest does not necessarily mean child molestation. As I pointed out to you, incest among consenting adults is nobodies business except the parties themselves. When the incest is between an adult and child outside agencies step in because society (and only certain segments of society at that) have decided that informed consent cannot be given by minors.
But these issues are great examples of relative morality. The things you cite are illegal in the US because the US has passed certain laws based on the current standards of that society.
In other countries and other societies different laws govern such activities. Even in the US, at different times in our history, there were different views about such issues.
The laws stand regardless of whether or not the things governed are moral or immoral.
