Perhaps going even more off-topic...

Well, that's the thing about morality. When one reaches what they see 
as a moral decision, it does not often take the form of "this is moral 
for me," but "this is moral." Since, fortunately, none of us is in a 
position to impose our own morality on others with the force of law 
(which some are attempting to do these days in the form of a 
constitutional amendment about something the state has no legitimate 
interest in . . . ) all we are left with is making a forceful argument.

At the same time, if everyone followed "their own rules" there would be 
Anarchie.

Interesting, no?
