Howdy to y'all too...... O-pea.

Nonsense Cut.....
You may not be "gay".... But, you are kinda "queer".
>But then, I guess I shouldn't be anti-semantic.
You're such a card, Harv.
>Regarding the rest of your statistics -- That's all they are, statistics. They do not deal with the more important issue, real individual gay human beings and the right of each to be judged on his/her/ individual merit. Their sexual preferences are not mine, but I don't feel any need to be judgmental of their choices. As long as they don't agress on my body, it's really their business.>
A Mormon polygamist was just convicted of moral crimes against "society". Society does have the right to judge some acts as being detrimental to society.
>I know you believe homosexuality is a sin. I believe being judgmental about the private sexual conduct of consenting adults is a sin of arrogance. It's just not anyone else's business.>
Then you must not agree with the Utah decision against polygamist Tom Green.
>Ah, yes. Those thrilling threads of yesteryear. If I recall correctly, at the time, you were on a thundering preach, save and conversion trip, ala the legendary Rextroll. I was as intolerant of that as you were of anyone who dared to protest the possibility of an alternative truth. My view was, and remains, that in the perspective of an open forum centered on computers, good people can have different philosophical truths, and mutual respect requires tolerance for the beliefs of others. You and I reached that a long time ago. <
And of course you would be one of those "good people".... fighting for truth, justice, & the American Gay. It may earn you a couple of bucks within the heavily "gay" influenced recording industry. It doesn't do much for your moral credibility.
How does that go? Something like..... gain the whole world but lose your soul.... selling your soul for a fist full of silver.
Ah.... have a nice "career", Harv. May you get all you deserve.
Bye......
