Bravo! Nothing like a little moral relativism mixed with hypocrisy to create a truly delightful draught. We should always remind our patients to "thank God they are not as other men." Works every time. Warmest regards, Slickrake My Dear Wigglebrick,

True, there is a difference between same-sex attraction and the gay lifestyle (it's the difference between thinking/feeling and acting/doing). Having a feeling isn't inherently sinful, but acting on it may be. By focusing on hypocrisy, the underlying behavior is mitigated. It's no longer important. <a href="http://www.kansascity.com/news/politics/story/257536.html" rel="nofollow">Here's an example</a>. Dr. Laud Humphries, a former Episcopal priest and academician reported on the "Tearoom Trade" that Sen. Craig apparently engaged in. He conducted his studies, presumably as a participant in public bathroom trysts. Humphries' biographer sees Sen. Craig as a hypocrite, not as a gay man.
