- It's viable as long as people like you don't kill and discriminate against
- them because of it, Teddy. By steadfastly maintaining the old obstacles to
- the acceptance of gays, then you (pl.) are, at most, fulfilling your own
- prophecies. How vacuously self-serving. As much as can be determined, the
- lifestyles of gays are at least as "viable", in the absence of artificial
- social obstacles, as those of straights.
-
- Oh, and don't even bother with the stock AIDS diatribe. Despite that
- tragedy, the biggest problem facing gays today (IMO) is STILL people
- like you with Dark Ages attitudes towards homosexuality. AIDS and its
- effects can be medically treated, and, maybe soon, even vaccinated
- against. But there exists no scalpel nor pill which can cure pernicious
- Bigotry like yours.
