I wonder how these holier-than-thou prigs ascertain just which relatives are actually committing sexual sins. Do they make their relatives answer a questionnaire before inviting them to Thanksgiving dinner?

Dear Aunt Mary, Uncle Joe, Cousin Charles, and Grandpa,

A. Do you practice cunnilingus? Yes...No...Don't know.
B. Do you engage in anal sex? Yes...No...Don't know.
c. Do you and your unmarried partner have regular vaginal intercourse? Yes...No...Don't know...
If yes, how often? How many times a week? A month??
Etc.

How do these people know what sins their relatives are guilty of? Just because two people live together, it does not necessarily follow that they are having sexual relations of any sort.

Sometimes sin is in the dirty mind of the beholder. Sometimes the prurience of those judging is a greater sin.
Sometimes people are just jealous that their relatives may be leading a more joyful life than they are.

Why just sexual sin? Shouldn't the questionnaire ask about other sins?

Do you report ALL income on your income taxes?

Do you give to Church EVERY week?

Have you ever downloaded a MP3 without paying for it?

Do you gossip?

I mean, sin is sin, right? If we're gonna shun folks for being less holy than thou, let's go all the way!

To the first question, it really doesn't matter. The outward appearance is what causes the problem in society, not what they actually do (which causes their problems with God).

To the second question, single men and women living together under one roof are living in a near occasion of sin. It really doesn't matter whether they do anything or not, the very act of living together as a pretended family is what is truly objectionable, not what they do in the bedroom. It is not acceptable to put oneself purposefully into a near occasion of sin.
