- Did I say that? I *asked* why he thought monogamy is the way to go;
- I didn't pass judgement on his reasons, or try to force mine on him.
- The 'social and emotional reasons' are obvious to me, I wanted to hear
- his view. Your *obvious* anti-Christian biases is causing you to see
- things that aren't there, Rob.

- Not worthy of life? Get a grip. If that were the case, you wouldn't be able
- to openly post that you are gay and live to tell about it. That is just plain
- *absurd*. There's no doubt that homosexuality is looked down upon, but
- 'not worthy of life'?? And comparing Nazi-Jew with Christian-Gay? Ppfftt...
- How can you possibly believe so many people hate you to that degree, and
- not lose your sanity? If 'homophobe' is considered an appropriate term
- for someone who 'dislikes' homosexuality, then there needs to be a stronger
- term for those who have paranoid delusions that Christians think you're
- not worthy of life, and would do to you what the Nazis did to the Jews.
- If that isn't paranoid-phobic.....................
