We are already at war with one bunch of zealots....

Why did you bring religion into this conversation? Seems like a non-sequitur.

"Moral" is a religious term. Very loosely applied by religious folks - mostly only to deride others.

I prefer "hypocrisy"... that seems to match religion quite well.

WOW...I thought that went away 20 years ago. I server as an openly gay person since 1992 and no one ever said a thing. Never...

I did....did you? Or did you mean "immoral?"

Either way, led to an amusing discussion.

No, I do mean amoral--- It's conceptual --can you dig it ? And as for the very petulant Homophile, Mr Chignutsak, (good name), now you can go back to work.

When is the last time that anyone took offense to flying with a single guy who does his best to get laid on every crew rest?

The difference is: sleeping around, cheating on your taxes, having relations with your pet goat, etc... is not being "institutionalized" as the new normal. I've never been called a "cheat on your wife-Phobe". Soon I'm sure, but not yet.

PS: stay away from that Goat !

I suspect you're old enough to know that calling people names is unlikely means of persuading people to change their mind about something--though props for "homophile," points for orginality.

As for the policy, it is what it is. As with any other military policy you disagree with, live with it or vote with your feet.

I'll take a solid wingman that's gay over a hetero dooshbag any day, because it doesnt f'ing matter.

Man, what on earth ever happened to NAVAIR.
