[Ansteorra] Royalty - Same Sex Consorts

[Sir Lyonel]

I have now seen two decidedly inflammatory responses on this topic,  
not counting many with decidedly controlled heat, which I believe has  
grown old and hoary in the eyes of many on this list. Sorry for that  
mixing of metaphors. Therefore, I would say three things:

(1) This topic should die until further reaction in either direction  
from the BoD creates new impetus for discourse.

(2) In corollary to the first point and in order to further that  
belief, I hereby proclaim that "Someone in this argument is a Nazi."  
In accordance with Godwin's Law, no further rational discourse on this  
topic is possible. Contrived, yes, but often effective.

(3) As no further rational discourse is possible, I ask the  
moderator's aid, if possible. I don't recall: is it possible to  
moderate by subject and disallow further discourse by moderation? Just  
a thought.

Sorry, kids, but this one's too hot for my taste (and I cook with  
habeneros). I'm deleting, unread, everything else on this topic that  
hits my inbox. 'S been fun.

Dennis Grace (speaking in spirit, if not contemporaneously, for En  
Lyonel)
