Visionaries,
Tim Jenson said, among a number of other things, that using homosexuals as scapegoats was just plain cruel.
Cruelty is bad? If there is no absolute by which we may judge society, then society becomes absolute. And, since Tim helpfully pointed out that most societies have mistreated homosexuals, then that must make it okay. Wouldn’t that follow?
Cordially,
Douglas Wilson
Apologetics in the Void” are repostings from an on-going electronic discussion and debate I had some time ago with members of our local community, whose names I have changed. The list serve is called Vision 20/20, and hence the name “visionaries.” Reading just these posts probably feels like listening to one half of a phone conversation, but I don’t feel at liberty to publish what others have written. But I have been editing these posts (lightly) with intelligibility in mind.
