Hows that?
In other words, relative to the individual person's whim of what leads to the greatest reduction in human suffering. Ugh!

I was under the impression that because of the Federal court, sodomy is no longer an offence in any state of the US. Correct me if I'm wrong?

Well, I think its pretty easy to determine human sdufferin empirically. But pray tell, how would YOU do it?

Blind Biblical legalism?

You are right, seems a case in Texas lead to the supreme court declaring it unconstitutional in 2003. I was unaware of this until your post here. My apologies, I was mistaken

It is legal in every state. Lawrence v. Texas 2003. Definitely not a worry of mainstream Christianity. Is this the proper interpretation, LightHorseman?

I'm sorry, I'm not sure I understand the question.

In my opinion, consentual homosexuality doesn't harm any third party, and makes the participants happier than they would be without it, so
a. It does no harm
b. It actually improves some people's condition

ergo, theres nothing wrong with it.
