Hello Dennis?  The complaint about CWL is NOT homosexuality - it's about CWL
being a CHILD MOLESTER.  And your comparisons to "nicotine," "hockey," etc.
. .make no sense at all in this context.  

You're statement "Perhaps CWL's major fault was to incarnate a few decades
too soon" is semi-on-the-money (I differ with you on his major fault) - but
if he had been incarnated a few decades later, maybe a REAL investigation
could have taken place by a neutral party - and CWL would have been
completely exonerated or imprisoned - either way, there would have been closure.

Anyway, you've missed the point completely.  Dammit.
