Thanks for your comments and let me suggest where I agree with you and where not. First of all, I agree with your suggestion that defining subversive sexual acts as normal has the effect of ‘undermining the act of normal sex’. No question – it’s exactly the same rationale that shows that extending marriage to homos devalues and confuses REAL marriage and its closely related twin which is the concept of family. Anything that waters down the real McCoy has the effect of devaluing and debasing it - whether or not that’s an intended consequence or not.

However, I do have a problem with suggesting that ‘homosexuality is a fetish’. My understanding of a ‘fetish’ is that it is an object or a nonsexual part of the body that creates sexual arousal’. That may have an element of weirdness about it – but is it necessarily a sin? If a man gets sexually turned on by looking at his wife’s toes, is that sinful? Probably not – but perhaps other types of fetish are a sin as it depends on some aspect of the application. Homosexuality is a sin through and through – without question and completely. Scripture couldn't’t be clearer on the subject and I challenge anyone to find a scripture that even hints of homosexuality NOT being a sin. As for your comment about the law ‘defining different kinds of sexual acts as 'orientations'’, I don’t think that is the case at all. In fact, it’s the very fact that this ISN”T done that’s the problem. With all the noise ringing across the continent over the past zillion years about homo rights and same-sex marriage, have you ever heard ‘homosexuality’ actually defined? What exactly is it? When you hear someone say they are a homosexual, ask them how they can prove it. Is it because they had a same-sex encounter once in their life? Because they thought about it once? What about someone who was once conducting sexual acts with a member of the same same sex but no longer does that or feels any desire to do so? I know what it’s NOT as I suggested in post 22 – and if someone wants to argue with me, let them answer the questions posed there for a start. I’ve got lots more.
