Mr Cochran:

Who's to say we'd necessarily recognize a trait (genetic or 
learned) as beneficial to Homo Sapiens?  Who can see the 
possible ramifications, some of which may not become apparant 
for 1000 years or so?  Ever hear of the population explosion? 
We could all benefit from a lower birth rate, and since we'll
never stop people from copulating (I pity those who think we
should/can), can you think of a better form of "birth control"?
Especially since it's not really hurting anything except some
people's sense of morality.  I'm not gay, but "I'll defend 
to the death anyone's right to be so".

Sorry, didn't mean to be burn any brighter than a Bic lighter...
