You know what married means, Greg. By your definition, it's an instituti=
on in which I tell Melynda what to do, and she hops right to it because s=
he's my covenant wife. The God-less state, of course, had nothing to do =
with our nuptials. We skipped city hall and took the A-Train straight to=
God. She told us we were wed -- and she said to share that good news wi=
th you.

PS: Just kidding about telling Melynda what to do. I wouldn't dare. Tha=
t's what makes ours a *happy* marriage.

At the risk of being labled a homophobic hatemonger and of Miss Huskey no=

Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Aaaaaa! Slavery!
Dear Jeremy:
I am myself descended from slaveowners--Pennsylvania Quaker slaveowners, =
I say with sorrow and regret. I am married to a descendant of North Caro=
lina slave owners. Using your argument, nothing I say can be construed a=
s revealing a bias against slave owners, since I have a fondness for both=
myself and for Joan. Do you see the difficulty now?
It was Doug Wilson, in the Daily News, who asserted that the purpose of h=
is tract was to defend slavery as a Biblical institution. If that's not =
true, and his purpose was to right an historical wrong, I have to ask aga=
in, what kind of person looks at the institution of slavery in the U.S. a=
nd says to himself, "You know, those slave owners got a bad rap. Everybo=
dy feels sorry for the slaves, sure--but who's speaking up on behalf of t=
hose fine traffickers in human beings, the owners?" =20
The modern historical establishment regularly re-engages the question of =
slavery--witness the brouhaha over *Time on the Cross.* Don't fool yours=
elf that the Wilson/Wilkins tract is part of any serious research on the =
subject, though. It's on a par with the work of David Irving.
