[MD] A Place for the Principled Person

[Arlo J. Bensinger]

[The Plattman speaketh to Gene]
Glad to know you are a person of honor. And I respect you for being forthright
by directly answering, not ducking, my question.

[The Jarloker]
One final point for another inane, but tenacious Wurlitzer. Haven't seen them
for a while, and now Boom-Boom-Boom, they're a'flyin'.

[Plattman]
Neither do I except as provided by law. I do, however, choose to deal with
hornorable rather than deceitful people.

[The Jarloker]
It's not a question of "honor", unless you think that "monogamy" entails a
sacrifice. And, its hardly "honorable" if one is monogamous only because
haugthy, self-righteous Victorians demand public shame and humilation for
anyone violating their Superior Moral Code.

I, for example, don't consider my monogamy "honorable". I give it because I
choose to give it, not out of some notion of self-sacrifice or fear of
Victorian public scorn and shame. I'm sorry you must not feel the same way.

And Gene speaks with wisdom. I don't care about your, or anyone else's personal
decisions. What you choose to do in your relationships is between those
involved. Unlike the haughty, morally self-righteous crowd, I base my dealings
with people on.... my dealings with people.

"Was it her love or THEIR hatred?" It's easy to see hatred when you make it so
transparent, Platt.
