This rests on scriptural, traditional, and rational foundations. This implies, in my mind, that it must remain opposed to the establishment of a state of society wherein homosexuality is viewed as morally indifferent. In my opinion, this issue has arisen from the widespread use of artificial contraception. Many no longer see sex as a means essentially ordained towards a primary end -- procreation. Joe Buehler
