Presumably, the lust argument is only for women, but who knows? Yes, presumably. Since the lust in his heart argument doesn't cover his discrimination against gays, that then seems more like plain vanilla prejudice. Perhaps all the distractions were to try to put a better face on that. Why couldn't he have just said that he had a religious scruple I think he implied it strongly at the beginning. I remember posting an interpretation where I explained it in those terms and I periodically offered a religious exemption but he shut that down. I took that as his preference for justifying Mojo's attitude without resorting to playing the religious card thinking that it would stand on its own as a matter of ethics, principle, conscience. I'm guessing, since he also eschewed the disability card in our discussion of ADA, that he didn't want Mojo's beliefs characterized as needing any crutch or special accommodation. That would be supported by his insistence that Mojo was being noble. So that's my take on it, at least today's take. All my takes are presented as works in progress. <g>
