Wait a sec--I said that Arndt here was not distinguishing homosexuality
from promiscuous behavior irrespective of sexual preference.  And he
wasn't, and isn't, since homosexuals and net.motss are the *ONLY*
targets of his criticism.

Oh boy, another California lunatic fringe group, and Arndt goes all to
pieces.  So Arndt, are you German, or of German heritage?  If so, what
are you going to do about Germany's neo-Nazis?  Or closer to home,
the American Nazi Party?  When you hear Meir Kahane speak, do you
assume that he speaks for all Jews?  Or Jerry Falwell for all Christians?
Sometimes the best strategy w/r/t loonies is to ignore them.
