The two words "simply" and "wrong" do not seem to go together these days. The notion of "simply wrong" does not reflect the nuanced moral zeitgeist. Simplicity is not fashionable. "Wrong" is not fashionable. "Simply wrong" is antiquated, backwards, wrongheaded, and does not fit the modern moral sensibility. Why is it that a pop-star can dangle a child from a balcony with repercussion? After all, endangering the life of a child is "simply wrong" is it not? Why does a senator think he can compare his political rivals from the floor of the senate to the NAZIs? This is "simply wrong" is it not? How can the Connecticut legislature consider equating homosexuality to normal relationships? Homosexuality is "simply wrong" is it not?
"Not that there's anything wrong with that..." is a tag line from the Seinfeld show. It was used comically for those situations wherein the characters tried to distance themselves consciously from a judgment of right vs. wrong. The tag line implies that the characters would not engage in a particular set of behaviors themselves, may even be repulsed by the behaviors, but simultaneously wished to express the nouveau morality of the left. In nouveau morality acceptance and non-judgementalism trump traditional values. The irony of this position is that anyone who does not accept nouveau morality is labeled "immoral." Arbitrary morality therefore trumps the morality of the ages. For the left "simply wrong" is trumped by "not that there's anything wrong with that..." If there is nothing wrong, why say it?
Let's face it, homosexuality is simply wrong. It is corruption right to it's very marrow. Even its symbolism is corrupt...

It's complexly wrong too.
Bestiality is simply wrong.
Who cares?
You know what else is simply wrong? That young men are dying of AIDS because they've been lied to, given misinformation.
The left says it's okay for men to practice homosexuality and that it is "normal" behavior. Well if there is a high rate of AIDs and STDs among the gay male community is it "safe" to be gay?! Sodomy is not hygienic, and there are new STDS developing all the time including one that brings Full Blown Aids in three months.
Some of these men suffer from STDs that ravage their system and rot out their internal organs. That's simply wrong.
You know what else is simply wrong?
Hmmm, could be, my nose is tingling, too. Ya never really know, though until they reply to posts to them.
Welcome, newbie. We usually like to have you post replies to existing threads before starting one.

"....your wrong, you just don't know it!"
As are you, not only "your" for "you're", but for the simple fact that I did not express my opinion on the artile, whether I thought homosexuality is a sin (I do, but a sin no different from my or any other sinner's sins), only that the poster had the right to express their opinion, as you do.
BTW, it's your "opinion" that "who cares" is not an opinion.
OK, yell away, you accomplish so much by doing so.
