- Mary is talking about sex in the Catholic Church (so to speak ...) =8)
-
- >mayyybe... it's OK if you're doing it to have kids, even though you
- >know you can't (without some sort of miracle - scientific or
- >religious), then it's your *intention* that matters? If you do it
- >*intending* to have a kid, it's OK.
-
- "So if a homosexual couple had sex, it would be OK as long as they intended to
- have kids from it, even though that's impossible?"

- >hee-hee. That's a lovely knotty problem Abner
-
- Abner looks insulted. "Calling me lovely is inaccurate but OK. Calling me
- knotty I don't understand, but it sounds ... suspicious. But calling me
- a 'lovely knotty problem Abner' is not to be bourne!"
-
- *grin*
-
- "Mary, if you are so brave, may I offer you a mixture of Dr. Pepper and
