Soloist Rational Phobias

And who, she sometimes secretly asked herself, wasn't stupid?
__Henry James, The Wings of the Dove, kindle location 1476-79

I am debating not watching the presidential debate this evening; nothing Romney could say would reconcile me to him as a scion of a cult which has a dark, unpleasant history, and yet, naming Joseph Smith for what he is hurts the feelings of the true believers, and Barack is not going to do anything I have not seen him do, faltering or not, since his days as upstart. Neither man has a real vision for the country which mitigates my disillusion with American liberty. It does not exist for me, and is slowly ceasing to exist for anyone else.

Again, writers such as David Mitchell were ahead of the curve, and the power is shifting away from national sovereignty to corporate governance. It may not be Google or Amazon, and it certainly will not be Facebook, but I agree with Mitchell's vision that we will cede ourselves to a few global monopolies before we collapse, whether due to an EMP disaster, or coprophagia, my personal favorite, which I see in our last days as a matter of course. Solely as a matter of logic then, I should support gay rights as I once used to. My revulsion changes nothing, and the Obama generation reflects a new reality, and if a rollback is not going to happen, why do I see homophobia as valid? There is no real plausible issue with oral erotic stimulation, or sodomy versus traditional intercourse, not as an abstract matter.

Homosexuality on a conceptually level playing field, is evil for reasons that have nothing to do with conservative religious tenants, because sexual liberalism can create a blinding self indulgence, and the risk of trauma, too prevalent. As an iteration, and continuous retreading, I have not yet compiled my data to really weigh in on the problematic issues surrounding sexual orientation, and I have been in the blogosphere, with my voice hindered due to lack of resources, and a frustration with computer literacy, for two years now, but we'll get there, as long as I can maintain access. I was, after all, traumatized to the point of serious doubt, if not conversion, and the issue is complex, regardless of my recoil. My goal? It may not matter, as my lung function is in significant decline, but I will get through my main points first, on a case by case basis, as my remaining vigor allows.
