whenever I see a homosexual question posted…you get hundreds of replys…but when you see an honest humble question posted, diddly squat…whats up with that?
Um, which is this?
Humility has this odd habit of not inspiring much passion, either in the askin’ or the answerin’. If you want a good debate you’ve got to stir up a few embers and throw some fuel into the fire.

The way I see it Jay, it’s probably because such issues are politically popular. The reason why it’s politically popular is because it appeals to a base nature in nosey people who just can’t mind their own business.

What is a “homosexual question”? Is it a question that prefers the company of other questions, rather than answers?
Jay – See: “Excellent Example of Both Stirring and Fueling in a Single Statement,” (just above).
Welcome to the ‘Hair-Splitting Zone’. Some of the folks over here in GD have been known to scrap their cars on account of a flat tire, reasoning that any fault in the vehicle, however minor, condemns the whole of the engineering effort; and a few have changed political, religious, and even sexual orientations in disgust over a single spelling error.
On the whole they seem like good folks, aside the habit of spreading eggshells on the road ahead. It’s much more enlightening (and fun) to just stand off and watch fer awhile . . .

For yellow and green and the rest.”
