Yes, but whose morality? To the extremist, a woman cheating on her spouse should be stoned to death. It says so in the book that is the cornerstone of their right and wrong. The laws allow us collectively to say what behavior is and is not available within our collective perception of morality, and our government (with any hope) allows us the mechanism to address any changes to that. There have been many times across human history when that mechanism has not existed or has broken irrevocably, and the results were often not what the rebellious would have liked. The path to correction of bad laws is the hard road - convincing enough of your fellow citizens to speak up, speak out (sometimes at their financial peril), and create a movement for change. If your right and wrong is shared commonly amongst the land, you (or your successors) will likely succeed. If not, then it will be as the Sheryl Crow song says, “Hard to take a stand”.
