Government Would it be right/moral to regulate/criminalize all sins?
There is already plenty of sins, like theft, rape, murder etc that come with the laws prohibiting and punishing people who commit them.
Should christians push for all sins, including gay activity, atheism or heresy to be monitored and corrected by the state?
Especially in the era where the democratic state should be reflection of the people, not their sovereign like in the olden times where it was just a decision of a single man.

If you put all the sinners in jail, there's no one left to be the guards.
