A couple of months later I found a lost kitten and named it "Ditto". I reluctantly had to give up those two kitties. A year or so later I found another abandoned cat...

    . I expect "quality" is a relative judgment on a continuum of greater or lessor quality. And since it is a judgment, it is pretty much determined by an individual or by consensus.

    I am "attracted" to certain types of ham radios, certain types of cars, and certain types of women. are you saying that I am sinning when I feel this attraction? There have even been a number of women I was attracted even though that attraction was not physical. Was that sin, too?
