The pleasure that we connect with this primal act >is merely a byproduct of our large brain... Well, maybe SOME of us have large brains...and maybe some of us even use them...but all (higher?) animals derive pleasure from it - in the sense that they are thereby motivated to do it and perpetuate themselves. What does the thinking part of the brain have to do with it? >...Yes it probally can be said that homo- >sexuals have ben around since the dawn of man. But it is only in the last 20 >or 30 years that they have come out of the closet. Homosexuality exists in many species, not just humans. It cycles in and out of acceptability (and correspondingly, in and out of visibility). Gee, either harpo!jrl doesn't know more than 20 or 30 years of history (if that much) or I got caught in a time warp thinking that ancient Greece was a few millenia back. (Check out Aristophanes.) >That is what happens when >you have too many liberals in office for too many years. When a 'gay' couple >can produce a child than I will be ready to accept them into the mainstream >of homo-sapiens. Until that happens I can only accept gays as perverts with >severe mental problems... It's a wonder that this wasn't cross-listed to net.politics, net.flame, net.motss,... When harpo!jrl can tell cause from effect from irrelevant opinion; when he can tell a liberal from a conservative; when he can distinguish love, sex, and procreation; when he can show at least minimal respect for others then I might be willing to consider accepting him as a human. For now, I'll recognize him as (allegedly) Homo sapiens, but that's about it. > Oh I can feel the flames already . . . . . . . . Too bad you can't feel any incipient thought processes!
