I tend to take someone's word for it when they say whom it is in their nature to love, and not to cast aspersions on the integrity of their natures if they are good and decent people And this is fine-- for you. But to millions of others, maintaining integrity with objective biological fact is more important than an empty-headed acceptance of any sort of perverse behavior simply because someone claimed “love” was involved in it. And to them a person’s engaging in such perverse behavior automatically proscribes their being considered “good and decent people.” If a horse can understand and sign a contract, hey, or should I say hay, be my guest. And of course by this line of “thinking” you are forced to accept sexual relationships between forty year-old humans and twelve year old humans who, in many cases certainly can understand and sign contracts. You are forced to accept such relations with some eleven, ten, nine year-old humans. Your reasoning is wondrously flawed, filled with all manner of ridiculous implications. Indeed, by your line of “thought” humans cannot so much as own pets. I don't think I said I hadn't talked to you about homosexuality, did I? I probably would have said I didn't remember it. Perhaps not. But you could not remember. I had dismissed you as but another hysterical liberal on the basis of your response to my view of homosexuality. You claimed you were not a hysterical liberal and likely had not discussed the subject. I refreshed your memory. I think the Johannes I recently met seemed so different than the one in those posts that I didn't recognize you, dude. Understandable. We are one and the same, I assure you. I was gently chastened about using the word “dang” so much and have stopped it. But everything I say here is said in essentially the same danged jocular spirit.
