I think Bush vetoing Stem Cell Research for moral reasons counts as slowing technological advancement. There not only are morals in the way of technological progression, but many would say that they aren't even good morals. Sent On the issue of premartial sex, just look at how many children are getting born to single mothers, who can barely even support their kids. Look at how many children are growing up without a father figure. Do you honestly think that its a good thing? Yeah, that's a bad side effect of us being a more sexually liberal country than we used to be, but that doesn't mean that premarital sex is inherently immoral. As long as both are consenting adults, it's not a problem to anyone but themselves, making the resulting pregnancy a problem of stress and financing, rather than a problem of morality. My morals pretty much come down to this: If it's not hurting anyone who doesn't want to be hurt by it, it's not a problem. That said, I think it's stupid for doctor assisted suicide to be illegal. I think it's stupid for marijuana to be illegal. I think it makes total sense for driving while intoxicated to be illegal, and murder and any sort of robbery.
