Live from Liberty University: Why we Can’t NOT Legislate Morality

Is abortion a right? Is life a right? How about same-sex marriage? Natural Marriage? Do kids have a right to medically transition to another sex? Should we have laws that legislate on these moral issues? Some say, “You can’t legislate morality?” Is that true? What about the separation of church and state?

Dr. Frank Turek speaks at Liberty University and addresses those questions and more followed by Q&A.
