By the way, as I've told you more than once before, if it were just an issue of the private behavior of consenting adults, we might not be having a conversation at all.

Interesting.

You have said from the beginning of the conversation, that consenting adult homosexuals were the moral equivalent of murderers.

I took this to mean that it was the moral nature of the behavior you objected to, and not whether such individuals practiced their behavior privately.

Are you now saying that you have no objection to consenting adult homosexuals, so long as they practice their sexuality privately?

Or are these people still the moral equivalent of murderers and deserving of death, even though they practice their sexuality privately?

Yes, I have. I stand by that.

Well, that was a bit of a strawman. They won't do that. It isn't any more in their nature than it is in mine. I love my wife and am proud to have her as my wife. I'm not going to keep our relationship private. I don't expect SADs to do that either. And that's where the destructive behavior to society kicks in.

Watch the "deserving of death" bit. If you accuse me of advocating either the abuse of SADs or a judicial system that makes it a capital crime, I'm going to call you out on it. I expressly said that the Bible mandated that approach for the theocracy of Israel. I also explicitly said that nobody is calling for the U.S. to become a theocracy. I will stand by the statement that SAD is the moral equivalent of murder. Did you understand the lyrics from "Mac the Knife"?

Shalom.
