The whole Lawrence vs. Texas nonsense was supposed to have been about deeds done in private, was it not.

I’d agree that it was taken way beyond the significance it needed to have.

Even Old Testament penal regulations made a crude distinction between the public and the private, in that two witnesses were needed to carry out an execution. Non-notorious cases (1 witness) would skate, that way.

This is what happens when a public expectation of religiosity meets the “religion” of secularism. If you can do it in private, you must be allowed to do it in anyone’s face too or somehow you are un-American.

Please educate me on Lawrence Vs. Texas. I have not followed it much.
