Catholicism's Tragic Asymptote

So Dan Savage, guest blogging over at Andrew Sullivan's blog, made an interesting point right around here:

"Santorum doesn’t just believe that the state should have the right to regulate gay sex out of existence, but two out of three most popular straight sex acts too."

I spent a little while trying to figure out which 3 sex acts Savage was talking about, but I could only narrow it down to 4. Then I realized it doesn't really matter - his point is actually that at least n-1 out of anyone's n favorite sex acts are banned by the Catholic Church. Two out of three is actually about as mild as it gets - try 9 out of 10 or 49 out of 50.

And then I thought, I'm awfully glad I'm not a Catholic.
