I agree with your last statement  50/50?

Jeffrey, I don't think that speaking truth is going to hurt anyone. Truth sets us free, and we find truth in God's Word. It leads us in the direction we should go. Sometimes we flounder because working out problems using purely human logic can be confusing and allow for a LOT of gray areas. Conversely, the Bible gives us clear guidance that we can apply to those situations to remove the confusion.
This is a discussion thread, and I expect to see a full range of views. Since this is a Christian forum, I think we can expect a certain amount of biblical backup for comments that are made. When someone colors outside those biblical lines, it can be shocking and cause some knee jerk reactions. I expect sinners to be sinners. I expect Christians to at least agree that sin is wrong, even if they personally struggle with a particular issue.
It doesn't bother me that TS thinks all role playing is wrong. For whatever reason, that's his take. He's a pretty black and white kind of guy, so it's predictable when he posts quick, terse answers.
I'm somewhere in the middle, I guess, because I think it's fine to have fun, but there are still lines that shouldn't be crossed, especially if it means bringing in a third party. Whether that third party is real or imaginary is irrelevant to me. I just don't agree that dressing up in a sexy outfit constitutes bringing in a third party. All Apostolics should know that putting on a different outfit doesn't mean you're a different person.
