I believe that the attempt by third parties to interfere with the choices of rational, intelligent, mutually consenting adults is simply ignorant, and definitively non-conservative.

James 5:19 "My brothers, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring him back, 20 remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of his way will save him from death and cover over a multitude of sins."

Obeying the teachings of God in the Bible isn't non-conservative.

Yes, but forcing others to obey at the point of a government gun is non-conservative.

No, but using the power of government to force obedience in others is.

You're more than welcome to use words and reasoning to convince a person to stop frequenting a sex club. I fully condone and encourage such an approach. However, sending cops into a club and dragging its participants off to prison while telling them, "I'm doing this for your own good!" - or, even worse, "I'm doing this for your own salvation!" - is not the kind of government you or I really want.
