legitimate reason for government to use force to enforce moral codes... eg. thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not murder?

If so, then the question is not whether or not government should impose its moral values upon anyone, but rather what those moral values are, or should be.

You say that you don't think there is any such thing as objective moral values... that they are all subjective and made up by each individual. Why then do you so strenuously object to my moral code, but not pickle's?
