Gay Marriage

I've been following a bit... I'm afraid you ARE equivocating.Is there any difference between a sanctioned boxing match and someone beating you senseless on the street?One scenario involves two CONSENSUAL ADULTS - you wilfully ignore this point time and time again - and the other does not. When you purposely conflate the two you are implying that both are deviant behaviors.There is absolutely nothing - save for a mythical book and your heebie jeebies - that separates the consenual act of sex amongst same sex partners and the same act between opposite partners.

Did I have to explicitly state that it is between different gender pairs? I thought that was pretty easy to grasp from the wording of my statement. I really hope you're not intending to go down the "all sex is for procreation" road...What Nem and others don't seem to grasp is that there is a difference between "minority behavior" and "deviant behavior".Premarital abstinence in America is a minority behavior, but under Nems characterization/equivocations, I could very easily call it a deviant behavior. Would that be a fair description - abstinence as deviant?My problem is when he takes two consensual acts and compares one of them - and specifically/purposefully not the other - to a non consensual act that is not an analog for either of them and then takes issue with accusations of equivocation.
Edited by PMOC, : No reason given.

That wasnt the point either. The point was taking two analogous scenarios and comparing one, but not the other, to a non analog...which was pretty much the whole crux of your argument.I don't care about your moral distinctions. I can freely discard them, just as you freely discard mine.
