    Being different from the norm does not mean that you are now allowed to do
    anything that comes up in your mind.
    As a defence for homosexual relationships I think the defence is not
    sufficient. Many of us have sinful wishes, that we must contain all our
    life. I do not necessarily want to throw out all homosexuals, but thus far
    I did not find a biblical, and logical defense of even "committed"
    reationships.
