But what are your thoughts on homosex?
Sci-fi writer John C. Wright does not approve of the Sci-Fi channel's apparent pandering to the "homosex" crowd.

The head of Sci-Fi channel has contritely promised to include more homosex in future shows, and to do it nonchalantly, just as if this abomination is normal and natural and worthy of no comment. The shows will not actually come out and say sexual perversion has no bad side effects. They won't actually lie and tell you homosex won't destroy your life. But they will imply the lie. They will play along.

Homosex. It's almost kind of catchy!

I'd like someone, anyone, to explain to me how my culture reached a position where a public entertainment company can be criticized for failing to contribute to the moral decay of the land, and that the criticism would be taken seriously, and the company would cringe and promise to do better.

Someone explain to me by what series of events persons with serious sexual-psychological malfunctions would somehow be awarded the status of moral arbiters, something like priests and confessors and sages -- except that the passkey to being a guardian of public conscience in our age is the absence of moral value, not the presence.


Explain they do. As soon as the post is referenced in a MetaQuote, the dissenters are off to reply to Mr. Wright. The initial reaction is small, but promising. Most responses are rational and non-inflammatory. Others are quite succinct and curt. A number of users coming in presumably through MetaQuotes announce Mr. Wright's loss of a potential customer, as long as Mr. Wright does indeed use their filthy, filthy Leftist dollars.

Come, my liberal leftist comrades! You openly boast of your superior intellectual power and more profound moral sobriety than we mere working Joes of flyover country (including working Joes like me with a doctorate in law who works in DC). You have anointed yourselves our superiors: that means you are smart enough to explain it. By what logic is the sole and single standard of virtue in your world view an absolute devotion to vice? By what logic is the sole and single sin the sin of having standards of virtue, what you call being intolerant?

'dem sure be fancy words.

I really, really wish they'd stop comparing homosexuality to incest, polygamy, bestiality, etc. It is not even remotely comparable and shut the fuck up edfbndkjfns

But duh, all homosexuals are obviously evil bad polyamorists who can't keep it in their pants!

...Sorry, the bitter bisexual polyamorous woman's going to go away now.

Let's start the Magical Unicorn Club! I mean, since we don't exist or exist solely for the pleasure of others.

Hey, sweet. :D I actually don't know much about Unitarianism, though what I understand is neat.

Thanks! I love it - my congregation are kind of like a family to me. I'm British Unitarian, which is slightly different than Unitarian Universalist, but not in essence. I attend the chapel at which William Gaskell was minister, in his time - great history there. ♥

Something tells me people who think this way don't believe consent has any importance :I

That's my feeling, as well. And the idea that there are that many people running around who don't understand that all the parties to any sexual encounter should be consenting really creeps me right the hell out.

In my experience?

They don't.

If you have breasts and a vagina you are Asking For It by default.

Signed, the irritated ex-Catholic bitchcake who once wanted to murder a vice principal for responding to oglers parked at the cub by telling the girls that if we didn't wear our skirts so short then things like this wouldn't happen and we had no one to blame but ourselves.

But then they wouldn't have any grounds to object to it!
