No. When you're making a slippery slope argument, the different items should be on the same slope. Do you seriously think that religious tradition is the only reason we don't kill off old people? Things that were once taboo should be legalized if the taboo isn't based on something real.

I may sound biased. Hell, I probably am. But the USA was based in Christian values. I think that if you try to take them away, everything else falls apart.

Please tell me how many of the Ten Commandments have equivalent US laws. Please tell me how many Levitican laws have equivalent US laws. Please tell me how many of Jesus' outright orders are enforced by US law. And then please tell me what precisely you mean by "the USA was based in Christian values".
