    Jason, I give a lot of credit to people who blog… and more credit to those who blog for a purpose beyond self-promotion of their super id.

    I’d give IGF a ten on a ten point scale but I’ll refrain from scoring your blog. It ain’t a 10, guy.

    This coming from someone who thinks morality is based on religion and the founders were theocrats.

    KamatariSeta, I checked out your blog. You seem like a moderately bright kid who’s a bit too full of himself. You would do well lurk a bit and listen to other people instead of saying “Lookit me! Lookit me!”

    P.S. I award your blog negative infinity points for gushing over Don Bluth’s cartoon The Secret of NIMH but not even acknowledging the existence of Robert C. O’Brien’s novel Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH — which had no colorful pictures, granted, just words on a page.

    Sorry, bud, but when did I write that? Maybe age can teach you the value of accuracy? I wrote laws come from morals. I wrote the Founders and Framers (two different groups, there Jason) were adherents of the Judeo-Christian traditions that underpinned our country’s beginning.

    “Theocrats” is it? LOL. Scratch a liberal and you get the typical GayLeft response.

    Accuracy, Jason. Try to be accurate in the future.

    And back to the topic at hand – thanks John – you’re one of our best advocates today.

    The finger-poking bit made me think of “frot,” which in fact works quite well.

    Overall, I thought it was fairly good, but I wish he would’ve spent a little more time addressing what is RIGHT with homosexuality — i.e., emphasizing that same-sex relationships need not be merely “harmless,” but can have positive moral value.

    Examines the case. Give me a break. Oh, and what might Aristotle and Nichodaemus the Younger have to say on the subject? Perhaps we ought to consult Plotinus as well? How about just looking at living and breathing gay people today. Take, for example, the countless gay men and women who’ve given up all hope of romance and love because they’ve been left by their straight siblings to care for their only family – their aging parents. At times philosophy and theology are nothing but an extension of vanity – the preening peacock showing off its feathers.

    I find that the only objectionable thing regarding my sexual orientation is that I am somehow blackballed from working in youth sports. Its not like I’m a catholic priest or anything. I guess its all good as I volunteered to work in an adult athletic league and now I am having relationships with the players.

    I hear you Brian I want to work with kids as well, but the local peewee football league will not let me be a cheerleading coach for my nephews team the “Packers”. Becuase the parents didn’t think it would be right. I was a college cheerleader for crying out loud, now all I am is an athltic supporter and I do not even get to hold the balls.
