Subject: RE: BS: At last a Pope talks some sense
Now, Alex, I realize that government may be required to offer alternatives to people who insist on doing something dumb, but do churches have to do that, too?

The electrical extension cords I've bought lately have a metallic instructions sticker that tells people not to put anything metallic in the outlet end of the cord. Why do people need instructions for an extension cord? And why do the instructions stickers have to be metallic?

If a church tells its members to practice only monogamous sex, is it bound to offer alternatives for those who prefer not to be monogamous? Can't they let the non-monogamists figure things out on their own?
