How incredibly backwards. On a side note, how do they expect to enforce this law? Making any sort of sex between consenting adults illegal seem to be more symbolic than anything. If anything is "against the order of nature", it's the banning of acting upon natural impulses.

I understand and agree. But maybe a better phrase than 'natural impulses'? I want to murder my business partner sometimes, but its just a natural impulse.

They are still holding on to laws left by the British.
