We are told that conservatives are hung up on issues of sexual morality. But isn't it the liberals who are in fact tied in knots over such questions?
The right wing, it is also said, is hung up on matters of sex because of religious qualms. Yet how many liberals would not steal, murder, or dishonor their parents? They agree with religious sentiment except when it comes to sex. So again, who is really all too concerned about the matter?
The left does not attack religion over ideals it believes in. Indeed, say the phrases 'social justice' or 'health care' and you will hear all sorts of appeals to religious sentiment. This is a rather convenient sense of justice, considering that the moral relativists of the left tend to be more (and more diversely) sexually active.
The question, then, is: do their actions follow their beliefs, or do their beliefs follow their actions? Do they act they way they do out of real and honest conviction, or because it is how they wish to act, and then attempt a justification for it?
Just asking.

Moral relativists on the left?
Neither the left nor the right has anything approaching consistent morals.
Seriously, basic morality isn't exactly rocket science. Don't treat other people bad.
But both the Republicans and the Democrats have groups of people whom they don't consider actual "people".
Which is, of course, completely unacceptable.
Nobody should be allowed to even consider running for president unless they represent the interests of *all* the people they're supposed to represent, but instead we're left to consider which candidate comes closest to this basic, absolutely minimal, requirement.
Nobody who could deserve the power would ever want it, after all.
