The examples you cite are beyond morality issues, they all involve one human being victimizing another. I am all for the government passing laws to protect innocent citizens from being the victim of a predator. What I totally disagree with is the government passing laws forbidding behavior that only harms the person engaging in the activity. It is the government’s place to protect us from predators. It is NOT the government’s place to protect me from myself.
While I don't engage in many of these activities, I think that seat belt laws, helmet laws, sodomy laws, internet gambling laws, drug posession laws, and other similar laws do nothing but remove freedoms. Again, I do not condone any of these activities and find some of them offensive and sins against God, but it is not man's place to enforce these.
Every one of your examples affect someone else. We are all members of the human race. All of us affect each other in more ways than is obvious, and we will never know the extent of what we do until our judgement day when we face God.
So you need to go vote. Then pray to your god that right person wins. After the election, the winner is the president. The constitution is foundation of the USA.
PS FYI
Homeland Security is online. If you grow up in the country.then you know about a party line ...
Sorry for the pun
