One of them is the moral permissibility of various practices.

一是多种行为的道德是否许。

Do you think it's possible to decide whether abortion should be permitted or prohibited without taking a stand or making a judgment about the moral permissibility of abortion?

你认为能否在对堕胎的道德容许性不持任何立场，也不作任何评判的情况下，来决定是许还是禁止堕胎？

The other is the fit between certain practices, whatever their moral permissibility, with the honor or recognition that the state should accord in allowing marriage. So Steve has a pretty good counter argument.

二是不论道德上是否许，特定行为是否得到国家的尊重以及认可，并且相地许婚姻。所以史蒂夫反驳的很出色。
