I thought I would take this opportunity to put an end to the discussion concerning homosexuality. As some of you already noted, this thread is tiresome and we have better things to think about at college like the new mall and what's on television.
I am going to take you on a journey that most heterosexuals will never see. You are about to witness the "homosexual lifestyle" (which differs from the "heterosexual lifestyle" due to the fact that we
dress better).
Welcome to the miserable world
of the homosexual.
Meetings are once a week. The location changes so that there is not undue burden on one host to provide
the wine, cheese, and fresh cut flowers, although matching place settings can also be difficult. During the summer there is a barbecue. After singing show tunes, the oath is administered. Our facilitator, who looks remarkably like Judy Garland, calls the meeting to order.
Most of our time is spent discussing the homosexual agenda. Our recruiters present the latest figures.
Many of you don't realize that we must all devote one year to missionary work, a policy from we which
we are indebted to the Mormons. This is a relatively easy requirement satisfied by either hanging around schoolyards or the Barbra Streisand section of the local record store.
Lately we have been experimenting with various "reversion therapies." Our scientists have noted successes in this area. Impressionable teenagers are locked in a room and are forced to watch television. After twenty-four hours of near exclusive heterosexual representations
of adultery, violence, misogyny, and irresponsible sexual behavior, teens are susceptible to an alternative. For those recruits who stubbornly adhere to a Judeo-Christian value
system, a close reading of the Bible usually yields "morally" based prohibitions on eating pork (Leviticus
II :7), wearing clothes of more than one fabric (Leviticus 19: 19), wearing gold or pearls (I Timothy 2:9), not to mention divorce, which carries a penalty of stoning (Deuteronomy 22:22). The hypocrisy of selectively ignoring only those
rules considered anachronistic is not
lost on the plebes.
The meeting usually concludes with an induction ceremony. With your right hand on the International
Male catalog, one swears allegiance to Rock Hudson and pledges to have thousands of sex partners. In return
you are given the " lifestyle" card, which is good for discounts at most hairdressers and florists. I've been
told it can also be used for travel discounts. Tea is then served (herbal for the lesbians) and we discuss antiques.
I hope this puts an end to any lingering questions about our lifestyle. I forgot to mention that if anyone is interested in trying it out, there is an end of the year special discount for those who sign up before January I. It includes a free gym membership.
Feel free to ask questions.

Recently, Dr. Phillip Johnson spoke at Ursinus about alternatives to Darwin's theory of natural selection. Dr. Johnson offered an explanation for the reason so many people believe in Darwinian evolution: it is an escape mechanism used by people to get away from the moral order of the universe as commanded by God. Accepting
the possibility that humans, in all their complexity, evolved according to the process of impersonal natural selection is effectively saying that God is not a necessary
prerequisite for humans to exist.
But,in making this claim, Dr. Johnson failed to realize that God is not the only source of morality. Just because a person may not acknowledge a God, and the moral laws that go along with that God, this does not mean that those people are prone to go on adulterous, murderous, not-loving-your-neighbor-as-yourself rampages through society. Most people recognize the destructiveness of such behaviors on their own, without the help of a God, and this prevents most of them from doing such things.
To draw Darwin's ideas out a little further, the whole concept of a God may be an adaptive device that was created by humans to help keep society functioning smoothly. "God" is a good adaptation because in order for moral laws to be effective, they need to be lodged with someone or something that is considered authoritative and legitimate beyond question, and that something can only be wholly outside of human nature- hence comes from Gods, created in different forms by human societies the world over, over all the time.
The moral laws of any society hold that society together in a shared sense of right and wrong, and the more people are synchronized with those ideas, the less conflict there should be. Less conflict means more stability, and more of a chance of presenting a unified front against outside threats to the society.
God and religions are pretty effective tools which societies have adopted to ensure their own continued existence.
Of course it all becomes ironic, yet tragic, when religion is used as the basis for great atrocities and crimes against humanity – because unfortunately, most religions have the idea that nobody else can believe something different about what God is or what God stands for. The once-adaptive concepts of religion and God are often used destructively, drawing lines between who can be loved, and who must be changed before they can be accepted.
It's a tragedy that concepts with such great potential for human society should be turned against each other, used as tools of intolerance and discrimination, and as a means of perpetuating stereotypes and hatred. Not all religions and concepts of God have this same bleak conclusion, but many of them do.
Therefore I take serious issue with any viewpoint that insists morality comes from a God, where wanting to escape from religion is equated with wanting to escape from morality and common decency. Escaping from religion is like taking a breath on your own, for the first time.

(U-WIRE) NEW YORK--- Showtime’s new series Queer as Folk will be the first on television to explore the lives of an all-gay cast of characters, complete with frank depictions of their sexuality.
The show, which begins airing on Sunday, December 3, received the red carpet treatment at a recent world premiere in Manhattan that was attended by the series’ cast and crew— along with a crowd of celebrities and invited guests.
“It was spectacular,” says Tony Jonas, one of the show’s executive producers.
“For we folk in television, when we make a new show, it goes without fanfare. We were treated like feature film people,” he says of the premiere, which benefited the Gay Men’s Health Crisis.
“It was a delight to see the young case suddenly on the runway.”
Queer as Folk is already generating attention for its controversial subject matter. Showtime will present the show as a season of 22 episodes that have been adapted from the original Bristish Queer as Folk. In the UK, Queer as Folk was broadcast as a limited series on Channel 4, where it stunned audiences with its graphic sex scenes and unflinchingly honest portrayal of gay culture, quickly becoming a critical success.
The US version is set in Pittsburgh and is, like its predecessor, centered on the lives of five gay men and one lesbian couple.
The structure is similar to HBO’s Sex and the City, with a central character— Michael Novotny (Hal Sparks)— who narrates each episode. Showtime is in the midst of a major promotional push for a show that will elicit any number of reactions from different audiences, few of them likely to be mild.
“The most dangerous thing that can happen is that it will make people think,” Jonas said. “No one has ever seen a show like this before. This is a show that will stimulate on all levels.” With more than 20 years of industry experience behind him, Jonas anticipate that Queer as Folk will redefine the standards of television sexuality for the near future, eventually paving the way for other shows to follow.
“We’ve pushed the envelope. Each one of these shows does heighten the bar a little bit. I hope in 10 years from now there will be a show that makes us look tame,” he says. “It’s a show that doesn’t belong on network television. We’re on cable.
“If we were on a major network there would be a greater controversy.”
