:: Thanks for clarifying, and for stating where our differences lie between our opinions regarding homosexuality. Now I am to understand that by "perversion" you mean biblically. When you say "unnatural" you mean according to the bible. When you say it is self-destructive, you are saying only god can prove it is self-destructive, presumably when his kingdom comes.

:: This is so much clearer than when in earlier posts, you have made us believe you could also argue your position without relying on religion. I realize this may not be true of the other "hot topics". What then, were our "intractable" positions there, such that discussion became pointless?

Well it isn't just me and my Bible you disagree with, Kevin. A recent national survey by The Post, the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation and Harvard University has 57% of Americans finding homosexuality unacceptable. There were no defining caviats or clauses. When the term "gay sex," was used, a full 72% called that unacceptable. Why did two words make a such a difference if there is no natural aversion or repulsion to homosexuality, eh?
