Which brings me back to my original point--you are wound too tight. Fornicators are sinners. You're a sinner. Sin is not the problem, lack of forgiveness is the problem. Sin, as the poor, will always be with us, that these people want a place to have sex is only a problem for the puritans/pharisees who are more concerned with people's souls after they're dead. This pietous claptrap will save no one from eternal damnation and your 'sincere' ministrations aside, I find your attitude insulting.

Prosetylizers like yourself hand the left a club to beat righties with all the time. Next time you feel the urge to sniff about the sin of fornicators keep it to yourself

1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.

3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?

5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

6 ¶ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 7)
