"It seems that when you argue "Wouldn't it be great if we could...?" someone immediately steps in with "Yeah, like that's going to work!"" JG   But I don't think it would be great. I think it would be oppressive. That's what the religious right is trying to do...oppress those of us who don't share their morality.   I believe adults can make these choices for themselves. How come everyone talks about the "nanny state" when the government tries to choose how we eat, whether we smoke etc. No one uses that term when the government - or those who would like to impose their theocratic values on our government - tries to regulate our sex lives?   Nancy Melucci Long Beach City College Long Beach CA --- To make changes to your subscription go to: http://acsun.frostburg.edu/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=tips&text_mode=0&lang=english
