Gah. You and me both. Why can't social evolution stay social evolution? The idea of wishing for progress in one way so as to prevent progress in another is utterly disgusting.

WalaBridget Are you saying that premarital sex is treated as a crime?

Because I found find that rather disturbing. I get that it's perceived as a sin. But people sin. People lie, people cheat, people covet things. It shouldn't be codified into law. At least, I don't think so.
