His language was not explicit. You apparently have never seen "explicit".
The topic is another question. But I think he brought up the topic in good faith, to help us all "place" this Christopher West individual -- what his position/morals/views are, etc. That is important for us Catholics to determine. Is he one of those liberals? Should his books be avoided? and so forth.
I think BTNYC's language was acceptable for a Catholic, mixed-company forum.
