Hi Robert-I,

Thanks for the response.

the request for a final resolution led me to want to marshal all the relevant factors and make a relatively definitive post. ...
Mostly things having to do with what love is and how to recognize it and where it comes from.

I appreciate what you're trying to do here -- and I have a similar tendency (to want to create the ultimate "definitive post") -- but that's just going to put us back at square one. In my various posts in this thread I have tried to lay out my argument (faltering as it may sometimes be) for why homosexuality is wrong. Would you be agreeable to going back through my posts (in this thread) and specifically addressing my argument (line by line, if need be), rather than creating something "all new"? I guess I'm asking you to "play by my rules" :-) Reality is, if you write a 20-page response similar in style to the one you quoted here (https://www.cblf.org/messages/53509.htm), I'm just going to have to say, "Sorry, I can't argue with that; it's way over my head." I'm sure it's a very good response, but I can't get my mind around it. On the other hand, if you respond to my questions specifically, I think I'll be able to follow you and keep up.

OK?

Blessings,
Rainboy
