Funny, but not really...

I've been noticing more and more lately that when people who are opposed to homosexuality start arguing about it, invariably they invoke references to pedophilia and bestiality.

They're all completely separate things... And just to be clear: homosexuality is about attraction to someone of the same gender and in most cases where a relationship is pursued, it's consensual, at least in as many cases as a typical heterosexual relationship.

Pedophilia and bestiality are generally not consensual, and are completely different.

Actually if you're LDS and you're going to bring up the pedophilia argument, please be kind enough to explain when marrying 14 year old girls for sex is acceptable, and yet you try to use the term pedophile to add credibility to your argument against homosexuality.

Ultimately it all comes down to one question for me...

How does having someone else be attracted to a member of the same sex affect you?

It doesn't!

  2. In hindsight, this really wasn't even close to being funny. Probably should have put it on the other blog...

    Appreciate the laughter though, even if it was sarcastic.

  3. Exactly, so far as I know, nobody is trying to make it compulsory.
