Thesis #2 was enlightening, i.e., to learn that Roman citizens were forbidden from being the “passive” member in homosexual relationships. The fact even pagan, lascivious Ancient Rome had at least that restraint is very telling and sad when we see what is happening in the West today.

I think that in pagan antiquity, the main form of homosexuality was servile pederasty. To schtup a Roman citizen would be to treat him as a minor and as servile, i.e. a boy toy, a “handsome youth,” a sex slave. It would violate the Roman citizens’ sense of being firmly on top in every way.

From what I’ve heard, the Islamic world is continuing that sort of servile pederasty today.

If a Gay Man was being physically attacked by some of Obama’s Sons, and Phil Robertson and Obamacare Pajama Boy were in earshot, who would rush to defend the Gay Man from harm?

I know the answer, and it wouldn't be the guy drinking the Cocoa.

What I learned is that no matter how hard the Lutherans, Methodists, Congregationalists, Episcopals, Anglicans, some Presbyterians, some Baptists, some Mormons, and some of every other denomination, try to destroy the Word of God by cutting out the parts they don't like or adding to it since they consider it incomplete or nonsufficient, just plain old folk who have common sense and an conscience still able to tune into their sense of right and wrong, took the controversy and shoved it down the throats of the immoral media, the immoral practicing homosexuals, and more importantly, the immoral Left who worship the created and not the Creator.

No need firing back. According to the mainstrem culture and media, I'm just an old sexist, racist, bigot homophobe redneck who knows God is right and doesn't need anybody any help from any self aware psuedointellectual to help me see the error of my ways.

I’m not a reality TV show fan, so I was reluctant to watch Duck Dynasty myself. But got around to the 1st season. I’m telling you, it is FUNNY. God bless them!
