Subject: RE: BS: At last a Pope talks some sense
Plato also speaks of "barbarians" looking askance on homosexuality (which he of course rhapsodizes at length). So there must have been some lands known to him which weren't so sanguine.

I'm not trying to make any "this is wrong / this is right" arguments, just show that "everybody in the world liked homosexuality until the Christians came along" kind of bullshit is overstated. Although there are people who have a vested interest in believing that all the world's ills come from Christianity. Nothing you say will convince them otherwise.

O..O
