[QUOTE]Originally posted by mr cheesy: [QB] I dunno, how about we try rewording to see if it would work about some other issue. Let's try interracial sex. a.) Interracial sex is morally wrong b.) Interracial sex is morally wrong because it mixes genetics c.) Interracial sex is morally wrong because it's disgusting d.) Interracial people are sinners who should repent e.) You are a sinner who should repent. I'm not sure we'd see any of these as particularly acceptable. (b) sounds a bit reasonable because it contains [an element of] scientific truth, yet is fairly obviously code for racism. (c)(d) and (e) are just opinions that I don't think we'd allow to be constantly repeated. Possibly we might just look strange at a poster that occasionally wrote something like (a) and consider it to be a weird belief akin to believing that tattoos are morally wrong. Clearly some people think their identity is tied up with the idea that interracial sex is unChristian. I just don't think that'd get any truck here. I'm not sure why gay sex is much different.
