The issue is whether the state has a legitimate interest in proscribing

If deliberate transmission of a disease is already forbidden, there is
no need to outlaw any sexual activity.

The question is not one of "need," it's one of societal will. I grant you
that there may be no "need" to outlaw sodomy to avoid this particular issue,
but the question is whether society is obligated to regulate in accordance
with your view of "needs" or whether it can regulate as it sees fit for
that, and/or other reasons?


If they use it differently than the textbook definition, they are misusing
the term, and thus their scientific credential are in question. I think it's
more likely that you are misusing the term, and that the scientists use the
proper terms.

They define their own textbook definition. Their scientific credentials
are not in question.

Well, since you haven't yet identified a single "scientist" in any credible
manner that would permit examination of their credentials, I judge this to
be argument by authority.

Scientific definitions are not always the same as
those used by the general public. Scientists need specific meanings to
terms in order to ensure that communication is concise and precise.

Then feel free to post an authoritative and verifiable definition of
"morphological changes" so that we can operate from the same definition.
Don't expect me to take your word for it though, some references are
required because you are facile at mischaracterizing things.


Perhaps you are using the wrong word.

Perhaps you are full of ****.

Nah, only about 1/4 full. I had a nice dump this morning.


You don't challenge any other items I posted.

I don't? I think you're mistaken. I challenge nearly everything you post,
you're just too dimwitted to realize it.

Is that an admission
that you've been lying and bull****ting all along? Or are you
too cowardly to stand up for your ridiculous claims?

I'm still waiting for you to refute them with any kind of credible rebuttal.
