Interesting post Yznhymr, although I don't see how being pushed around by the moral majority (the use of majority depends on how loose the definition of 'moral') is any better than being pushed around by 'godless liberals'.
Maybe I want my kid to have real sex education and don't want the government to discriminate in it's funding.
Maybe I like science based on actual science.
Maybe I like choice.
The 'immoral few' aren't forcing women to have abortions, but giving them the choice. The correct term is really the 'amoral majority'.
I still remember that many of today's 'moral majority' thought segregation and miscegenation laws were just fine back in the day, and confused intolerance with morality.
Freedom is usually messy, and authoritarians always promise order and calm. Personally, I think any person who measures his or her morality by how effectively he or she can interfere with my life is an asshole.
