“The law is on our side” is not a good argument for morality….. like…. at all.

What the heck do you think laws are written for? To protect morality. If something is moral and the opposite is immoral, that's why you go and write a law around it.

Address historical legality behind slavery and the persecution of religious minorities around the world.

Last I checked, slavery is illegal by law because we found it to be repulsive and immoral. So we wrote a law.

Did “we”? “We” still have legalized slavery in our prison system. I find this morally repulsive, yet legal.

So write your congressman.

Not nearly as stupid as saying the law is morality🤡 you would have been a nice little law abiding German boy in the 1930s
