Just being honest with you here.(December 14, 2024 at 3:33 pm)The Architect Of Fate Wrote: First off I said nothing about my needs, I pointed out one can guess how the culture would respond to expression of a desire to commit an act they clearly condemn without the use of a time machine.
Second, You clearly have a desire that's related to paying taxes. The desire for public service or to not go to jail for example or a desire to fulfill the social contract those are desires also again if a person in biblical times went around saying I'm willing to fuck another guy out of some related desire I'm pretty sure the response wouldn't be positive because they don't seem to have positive opinion of that act.
I was responding to your original argument that people who engage in homosexual acts are clearly, by implication, being maligned and penalized for being homosexuals. In that context, if someone is maligned for the act, regardless of whether they have the sexual desires of someone with a homosexual sexual orientation, then your claim that the punishment of the act is an implied condemnation of homosexually oriented persons fails. Not just any desire will do.
And I've already given you alternative guesses. My guesses don't align with yours in every instance so the guesswork is not very telling.
