But no self respecting jurist/representative would say these laws are therefore religious and should therefore be repealed or not passed.
Just because there are religious people in Alabama that believe those laws come from the Bible, would you oppose those laws?...of course not. These laws should stand or fall based on secular reasoning. For example, is there a physical victim or not...that is consequential, not theological, reasoning. I guess we can at least agree on that?
Also, as an aside, federalism is good for the country, is it not? What Alabamans do can be ignored by you, right? Or, is the goal to make all 50 states the same?
