The Conservative Cat

I have frequently commented on this topic in various places around the blogosphere.

To a cat, the desire to mate is like an itch that keeps coming back. Humans, on the other hand, don't seem to have any desired to mate at all. Instead, you've turned sex into something just short of a religion. For proof, all you have to do is look at the U.S. Constituion. The right to bear arms has an entire amendment all to itself, but Congress is constantly adding new gun-control laws. Abortion isn't even mentioned once, but it's so fundamental a right that we have a law limiting your ability to protest it. If that's not evidence of a society that values sex more than family, I don't know what is.

The fact that humans remain connected to their children is a wonderful thing. Bruce is absolutely goofy about his kids and you can tell they give his life meaning in a way nothing else can. That fact has held his marriage together through some pretty rough times.

But of course Bruce is not entirely sane: he talks to cats. For those of you who want sex and not children, use the Three-Minute Rule.

Anything else is just begging for complications.
