As you have NO idea what the premise of the "free state" commentary was concerning, you input has no value.

That is twice I have done that. Every time I type it; I look at it; think it looks wrong, and do not back check myself. :oops: :oops: :oops:

He has decided to enter into commentary for which he failed to read the starting point.

Shalom back to you. I'm curious though, where did you acquire your homophobia? Most American Jews, like their non-Jewish neighbors are in favor of gay marriage. They're insightful enough to realize someone else's choices don't put their family life at risk. What did your parents do to you? Just curious.


I am not homophobic.

"[A man] shall not lie with another man as [he would] with a woman, it is a to'eva" (Leviticus 18:22).

The term to'eva is usually translated as "abomination". However, because the word is used twice in regards to homosexuality, its second use has been understood by the Talmud to be a contraction of the words to'eh hu va, meaning "He is deviating from what is natural." (literally "He is wandering with it [from the natural way of the world]" since the Hebrew word to'e means "He is wandering", va "with it").

But, because you are not orthodoxy or hold any reverence to the Bible or Torah, this would not make sense to you. I just view a sexual relationship between same sex as unnatural. I do not hate a person who is homosexual, I do not exclude them from friendship, I just do not discuss their bedroom activities with them.

I have on occasion. If a woman of my family comes to ask a question or is having problems and needs to have an adult or another woman to talk with, then I will discuss the issue. I did have the conversation with both my sons, before they became sexually active. Something that I think all parents are obligated to do as part of education. My mother and father had the discussion with me, so if the subject of sex is presented; it is not an embarrassment, it is a fact of life and should be dealt with as such. Having said that, I do not actively go out and ask people what their sexual proclivities. Their preferences have never been a precursor to friendship or acquaintanceship.

Then as such, I find it difficult that a Liberal system would not fit.... it seems that many laws are now written to force compliance to birth control, recognition of gays in the military, abortion...... A true secularist would insist that these are personal matters and laws should never be made to force a person(s) into acceptance of such restrictions.

Please, AuntiE, educate me because I need guidance.

Secularism is indifference and/or rejection of religion or religious values. He has clearly stated he does not follow the tenets of Judaism or the Bible, etc. It is a Libertarian who "would insist these are personal matters and laws should never be made..."
