Tell that to the Women's Christian Temperance Union.
(Isn't Kit the Coyote so darned cute when he tries to associate alcohol consumption with sexual perversion?).
Since you want to talk about the prohibition of alcohol, here are the reasons that it was done and it did work.
Actually, Prohibition Was a Success
Second, alcohol consumption declined dramatically during Prohibition. Cirrhosis death rates for men were 29.5 per 100,000 in 1911 and 10.7 in 1929. Admissions to state mental hospitals for alcoholic psychosis declined from 10.1 per 100,000 in 1919 to 4.7 in 1928.

Here's a thought Kit: How about we get society to do an experiment and outlaw homosexuality for 14 years and see if HIV/AIDS and other STD's that those who engage in homosexuality disproportionately contract dramatically drops?
Odd that somehow the Bible got left out of the foundational document of US law.
That after being read aloud on the Senate floor, the Senate voted unanimously in 1796 to affirm and encode in US law the statement "The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
Please learn to link your information Kit. Regarding the Treaty of Tripoli and the letter that was written to your barbarian Muslim allies:

I know you have a massive crush and love affair with Larry Kramer but the rest of us don't care, I would say get a room but I think he is dead.
Surely you're not upset that I on occasion point out that the leaders of the homosexual movement were/are practicing pedophiles and pederasts or promoted pedophilia and pederasty are you Kit? If I thought for a second that you were upset, I don't think that I could go on talking about one of the core values of the homosexual movement: the indoctrination and sexual molestation of children.
Here's an idea: Since child molestation is such a huge part of the homosexual movement, what are your thoughts on this symbol being attached to the rainbow flag?
What a coincidence that NAMBLA has rainbow colors as well!

Of course not, because those behaviors are illegal.
Of course but the religious liberty issue is larger than that and won't be settled by making every potential thing a Christian might object to illegal. Better to let the issue work through the courts and reach a proper balance between conflicting issues.
I don't recall any State Civil Rights Commissions punishing Christians for other things outside of refusing to kowtow to homosexuality. Perhaps you can give some examples?
