I stand by what I said. It's never going to happen.

Reasonable people can and do make seemingly arbitrary distinctions about life and the law all the time with nary a trace of dischordance about it.

Homosexual sodomy is now legal - as it should be. Pedophilia, bestiality, necrophilia or whatever your favorite philia is will not be made legal as a result of the Lawrence decision.

I did not say that. The push for the "normalization" of the sexual abuse of children is happening; in spite of Lawrence, not because of it.

Need a little proof?

Considering your prior statement, "And I'm willing to put my money on it," which makes one think of the proverb, "A fool and his money are soon parted," perhaps you can take said money and donate it to Free Republic, hmm?

I guess I'm talking about you, who just provided a fine example of someone who can't discern between a moral objection and incidents of actual harm (such as murder and theft).

Are you suggesting a belief anyone can do as they please as long as nobody gets hurt?

That sounds more like moral relativism than moral objection, don't you think?
