So, I was poking around, reading Slate on MSN which generally has some interesting, thought provoking articles.
I stumbled across these two articles:
"Shag the Dog" - http://slate.msn.com/id/103801/
"The Bestiality Perplex" - http://slate.msn.com/id/1007408/
...this is almost too bizarre to get my mind around.
I wasn't aware that this was an issue on the forefront of society
Thoughts on this? To me, it's so far out in left field that it's not something I can even form a strong opinion about. Bestiality? This is something that there's a question on? How can that be? It provokes such a strong feeling of "wrongness" that I can't even lend credence to these arguments, though I did find them interesting.
I'm going to take a look at some of those linked articles when I get home and am not sending bestiality links through the company firewall. Both of those links are safe for work, incidentally.
These articles were linked to from an article about the attempted banning of dog meat in South Korea from the thread about cooking pet store animals.
Aside from the societal issues and potentially viewing animals as having the mental capacity of a child, and not being able to give "consent", I'm sure the Bible has something to say about the subject as well - and I was suprised that did not come up in either of those articles... Andyman?

... Slate... 
(yes, I felt the need to actually smiley you guys this time, just to make my sense of humor perfectly clear...)
