Not at all … Being secular so far is being translated to being unable to define moral boundaries … texting when driving is banned - not texting per se … I don’t create the laws of the US, but they have reasons that are tangible in many cases … they are not so tangible in other cases … Why should alcohol be allowed when cannabis not? Again human made laws are arbitrary …

texting while driving is banned, not texting all together. Drinking while driving is banned, not drinking all together. cannabis allowed in some states and if you ask me, I think it should be legal. I dont agree that it’s illegal.
as far as ‘human’ made laws, yes human laws do change with time.

Of course I think it is immoral to take medicines in excessive amounts, I also think it is immoral to take sugar, aspirin and red meat in amounts that cause real harm … I would not be consistent if I didn’t think that … the problem is why you don’t think that …

I think alcohol in EXCESSIVE amount is dangerous, and those people need therapy and counseling. But just because some people can abuse it, doesn’t mean it needs to be banned for everyone. just like we cannot ban aspirin, red meat, sugar because some people can take it in excess amount and harm themselves, alcohol shouldn’t be banned either just because some people can abuse it. i hope you get my point here.
