I must admit that I'm growing bored with this discussion thread
(among others), and I never thought I would be carrying on an
argument of this sort in this discussion group, but...

\begin{flame}[blowtorch]
    This is one of the most narrow-minded, bigoted, homophobic
    statements I have read on this or any other discussion group.
    Thousands of gays have died of AIDS, thousands more will die
    before it is conquered (if ever), and all you can do is label
    them "unnatural" and "deviant".  Well, they are humans too, and
    if you had any shred of humanity you would pity them despite your
    feelings about what they do in private.  You should also be
    informed that those "unnatural", "deviant" acts are performed by
    non-gays every day.  Do they deserve to die too?  I don't even
    want to take up the issue of what God thinks about the
    situation...why don't you read "Christianity, Social Intolerance,
    and Homosexuality" by John Boswell, or talk to some of the folk
    in soc.motss?  You obviously have a *lot* of learning to do.
\end{flame}

I apologize for wasting net bandwidth over this, but I feel a lot
better now.
