running out of time to read this whole thing. like i said before. "technically" your argument quoting the bible "a man may not lay with another man and no woman shall lay with another woman" is one phrase, and not nearly damned as many, many other sins outlines as higher offenses, that we all on average commit. and, like i already said. they are less competition for women. they are the same as everyone else, just prefer something different in the bedroom, or are lookong for an easier path to companionship. whatever, does not effect me, and can make good friends, just like strait friends. bringing religion into the matter does not work, and does only harm, and a battle nobody will win. besides, we need to quit. not supposed to be having religious discussions, and pushing ths matter is only going to "force the hand" at making another rule to give us more grief and restriction in every-day posting.
