Why should the law care about what I do behind closed doors?

Society sets laws announcing those actions that it deems unacceptable in polite society. If evidence appears that causes a reasonable person to suspect that illegal activity is going on, society should investigate. Of course society might find itself having to jump through hoops by adhering to constitutional law. It cannot just invade your personal space and demand to know what you're up to just because they don't like you.

Liberty is not boundless. It does have its limits.

Your speech is free. But if it causes malicious harm to someone, you can be sued.

While wearing high heels and walking heel to toe, when the toe box hit the floor there is a noise. How do I keep the noise just for the heel?

If evidence arises that you are doing these things behind closed doors, don't you think the government has a moral obligation to investigate?

But what if you're raping little girls behind closed doors? Killing gay men? Watching child porn?

It shouldn't to a point.

My religion teacher said that there are no atheists because in order to reject God, you must first have a concept of God, and if you have a concept of God, you are not an atheist. In what way is this true, if at all? Why?

You can stand on a public sidewalk and take pictures of my house. You can't walk into my house uninvited and start taking pictures.

The law shouldn't care (if you are a law abiding citizen) about who you take into the bedroom as long as they are consenting adults. How many guns you own. What you eat for supper. What kind of TV shows you watch. Whether you watch porn or not.

The law doesn't care about what you do behind closed doors as long as it is within the bounds of what the law allows.

Why can't NASA just bite the bullet and launch a plainly simple mission, audited by flat earther peers start to finish that definitively proves to even the smallest minds that the earth is an oblong spheroid, and not flat?
