The exclusively objectively oriented person is not free to affirm subjective realities such as emotions---yet cannot ignore them. The solution is often to regard emotions in a way comparable to the way objective reality is regarded. By collusion a group of exclusively objectively oriented people may treat their emotional responses to situations as objective reactions caused by the situations---and hold those persons who were responsible for the situations to be responsible for the "objective" emotional reactions which were "caused" by the situations. Since all realities are perceived to exist in the objective domain in causal relationships---it is logical to hold persons responsible for the personal reactions which they cause. Thus it is logical for me to hold other persons responsible for my emotional reactions to their behavior. According to this objective analysis I have the right to constrain other people's life style if my awareness of it offends me---for their behavior causes me objective grief. We should not be free to offend each other! We have a responsibility to be considerate. They should not do things which will get me upset! For thousands of years responsible/respectable people have found homosexual behavior to be objectionable. Homosexual behavior on the part of deviant people causes objectively verifiable emotional reactions in people who conform to the one life style which God ordained for us. God's way for us is clearly spelled out for us by the writers of the Bible who, like us, were offended by homosexual behavior. It is unthinkable to say that all of us who have been offended by homosexual behavior on the part of deviants have been unloving persons. We have done our best to conform to the law! What more can be asked? Political power-struggles over what constitutes an emotionally inoffensive life-style will not get to the root of our problem. To get to the root of our problem we must learn to affirm both objective and subjective realities in ways which are appropriate to their different natures. Objectification of emotions and subjectification of objects lay traps into which we all fall, and out of which it is difficult to escape by objective analysis and action. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
