Upsetting the Pace
by Scott Hardie on March 13, 2007

Gen. Peter Pace, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on homosexuality (link): "I believe homosexual acts between two individuals are immoral and that we should not condone immoral acts... I do not believe the United States is well served by a policy that says it is OK to be immoral in any way." Great! So when does the military stop killing people? The good lord said that's much worse. Oh wait, I forgot: Killing is ok, but moral relativity isn't.
Two Replies to Upsetting the Pace

Well, in fairness, the Bible does make distinctions between "killing" and murder. Killing is fine under certain...well, actually a depressingly large number of conditions in Mosaic law. The commandment, as the cliche goes, prohibits murder, not killing.
Pace is still wrong on this, of course, because he doesn't grasp the difference between preference and morality, or, for that matter, morality and ethics. And its those distinctions that, in the BIble, separate killing from murder.

What I Did on My Christmas Vacation
The last week and a half was some of the most fun I've had in a long time, and a much-needed vacation. I tend to take many short weekend trips each year rather than one long break, but it feels so good to be rejuvenated and rested for a change. "Christmas" came on Sunday the 23rd, dinner with my mom and Santa's usual generosity all around. Go »

That's why, going forward, all homosexual acts must be performed in groups of of three individuals or higher. Then it's not so immoral.
P.S. Video taping of hot girl on girl on girl action is not immoral, so feel free! ;)
