You still do not get it, Xavier. The "lie" is not his personal predilections or sexuality - it is pretending to be an expert in a field in which he has not trained, and completely incompetent.
Because he is a magician - he is trained at deceit. IOW he is a trained deceiver (liar) and a master at that trade. By comparison, Rossi is an amateur. That expertise in deceit is not, and cannot be a matter of doubt. He is living that kind of lie, even if "it's nobody's damn business". And by the way - it is +always+ someone else's damn business when a gay man chooses to marry a have children. Even if the wife knows - it is unfair to the child who has no choice in the deception. -----Original Message----- From: Xavier Luminous > Let me answer a criticism to Ron's post.
