Sorry to interrupt, but I think I vaguely remember when I was at MIU in the 90's that according to vedic standards homosexuality was generally frowned upon. Someone told me that they were at a seminar and the question was brought up to Maharishi, and he made a comment that homosexuality is one of the worst things for evolution.
Anyone here able to confirm this? Or is it just another TM rumor that just got spread around like many others? seekliberation > > > > > > I'm for gay marriage, polygamous marriage, gay polygamous marriage, > > > bestiality marriage, and incest marriage in equal measure. > > > > > > Aren't you? > > > > This is the "box turtle argument." > > > > "Interpreting the statement literally: it is clear that legally recognizing > > gay marriage does not entail doing so for polygamy, incestuous marriage, or > > marrying animals; these are all separate propositions.
