Underage Drinking (Or Any Other Law)

Underage Drinking (Or Any Other Law)

Being a freshman in college, I am asked why I don't drink. The truth of the matter is I believe in objective morality, and with it the command of obeying the laws of the land. If there is a strict line, namely the law, which dictates what is and is not permissible and yet we choose to draw the line where we see fit, we are endorsing relativism and therefore the line could then be drawn wherever each individual deems fit. When it comes to underage drinking or disregarding any other law there are two subcategories of people: those who don't have the conviction to stand on their principles and those who don't care. I don't wish to belong to either group.
