If that is true, then i would say there are some things that are just so morally wrong that they just shouldn't happen. Murder, stealing, rape, etc... All fall under this category. Most of society agrees that adults having sex with young (and I repeat young) children is so incredibly morally wrong. Since most of society agrees with this we have a law to keep those we feel are breaking a moral standard.

I agree, yet disagree. It's not needed to be a law because it's a moral standard held by a majority. It's needed to be a law because it's for the protection of innocents.
If the majority find homosexuality to be "wrong," I could hardly justify a law against it on that basis.
