[Verginius Rufus]

This sounds like it is based on a book by John Boswell (1947-1994), Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality. Boswell was a homosexual with an agenda...from what I've heard about the book, he engages in a lot of special pleading to try to get around inconvenient evidence...in other words, claiming that words don't mean what they appear to mean.

In I Kings 15.12, King Asa of Judah is praised for expelling the male shrine prostitutes from the land (NIV translation--the KJV has "sodomites").

Boswell sounds like a Herbert Marcuse acolyte. On page 23 of Daniel J. Flynns' "Intellectual Morons", he writes:

"In Marcuse's world, critical thinking, and even logic, is the enemy. In "One Dimensional Man" he condemned 'the process by which logic became the logic of domination.' If an ideal is devoid of sound logic, Marcuse argued, the problem is not always the idea but sometimes logic itself.....logic is a tool of oppression......because it can be used to debunk many ideas he thinks are good ones."


So for Marcuse, and as for Boswell and the Left in general, whatever they wish to pretend is real and true, becomes those things. Fantasy is reality, and lie is truth.
