Lawrence v. Texas: Discuss

[A Black Falcon]

Also, a boss can't discriminate against a gay person if they don't know he or she is gay.

It is perfectly legal in the US to fire people, evict them from apartments, or do anything else along that line to someone because they are gay. Sexuality is NOT in the list of things which are llegal to fire people for (religion, race, gender, etc), quite unfortunately...

Society does determine what is right and what is wrong. That is the very basis of law. If morality were determined solely by the individual, then essentially anything could be moral, and anyone could justify anything simply by claiming their personal morality. There are inherent problems with that. Perhaps you have heard of NAMBLA? That is essentially the claim they make: What they do (promoting gay sex between children and adults) is moral because they don't think there's anything wrong with it. Yet, society disagrees, with good reason.

Yeah, morals in a society are made by the people in that society.

For example, in ancient Greece man-boy love wasn't just accepted, it was a major part of their culture... and somehow I think they were somewhat successful?

If you want to see where moral relativism takes place, you need only look at whatever lawless third-world nation you choose... Africa's got quite a few. Everyone has their own morals because there is no society, and because of that the strong can and do impose their morals over the weak, because who will stop them? In contrast, civilized nations of the world, for the most part, practice social morality in some fashion, and as a result, have a much stronger and rich society. Moral relativism is something that should only exist where there is no society. To want to dismantle social morality and artificially create a moral vacuum is, as you put it, absolutely ridiculous. It is such an atmosphere where immorality such as gay marriage can be forced on a society that does not approve of it.

You are confusing moral relativism with lack of state security or functioning government. Crucial difference there.
