Dear runner,

It really doesn't seem as if reason enters into it when you say something is wrong. If nobody is hurt and everybody involved consents I don't see that it is anybody else's business. If a woman's dog gives her pleasure why should you care? How does it hurt you or anybody else?

Morals and ethics are a community issue, so go beyond parental influence when such parental influence is so extreme to be outside community standards or norms. Everyone ought to be challenged by discussion on specific cases, as there is no absolute rules for every situation.

I agree that morals and ethics are a community issue.
Parents these days, in a way, are constrained by the system that we employ to conduct our societies. This system dictates that young people are hustled away at the first opportunity from the real world and segregated in an artificial enclave for much of their time. And while they learn something of ethics in the normal grind of schooling, they are for the most part removed from the holistic experience of society as a series of concentric circles, each emanating from a reinforcing core which is their family.

McReal hits the nail on the head. Secularist want to choose when they can promote and enforce absolutes.

'Everyone ought to be challenged by discussion on specific cases, as there is no absolute rules for every situation.'

How McReal do you choose what situations you apply absolutes? When it suits your world view?

It seems that some are comfortable with people having sex with animals as long as 'it does not hurt anyone else'. Again an individual right to the detriment and perversion of society wins out in sick little minds.

Sorry to have not waited upon your reply but other duties called. Please don't presume to think you know my views about things just because I asked you a question that discomfited you. You don’t and it’s rather naughty of you to behave as if you do. Just for the record, your guess was well wide of the mark. I notice that you did not answer my question, so I’ll put it again: If a person wants to do something in private that hurts nobody, why is it your business?

Oh come on Pericles, Christian values in NSW is so tied to Muslim Immigration! You surely can identify this old conservative segue:
Theological debate (anywhere) > Christian culture/tradition > "Real" Australian values > lost to lefties > allow Muslims to attack.

I mean, surely that makes perfect sense when you look at it from the right point of view!
