This one didn't ping either of us. My answer conveyed the ambiguity. Yes, as being corruption of the human creature before the infinitely holy God; no, as being two different misuses of human relations. (This is my third time.)
Pressing this objection and rephrasing it as you do in another comment is not likely to advance us much on the work we have before us. But maybe we can seize upon it as a segue: shall we add bad analogies to the list of things that we can work on regulating better in the future as part of our negotiation? You're not asking us just for rhetoric's sake, you actually want certain behavior to stop and to work toward that goal, right?
