There is nothing asur about the emotional bond of love between members of the same gender, and I argue that this emotional bond is more important to the concept of homosexuality than physical acts of sex. If you don't carry that emotional bond, you aren't gay, you're just open to different forms of sex. This article is offensive to me, as it boils down homosexuality to a purely physical phenomenon. Then again, what can you expect from a Yeshivish-educated individual these days...<BR/><BR/>The painful part of this article is that this guy is doomed to a life of eternal misery, caused entirely by himself and his unwillingness to question people who paint the Torah using a broader brush than Hashem himself did.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
