conversations.value:  The one who’d avoided answering me signaled the other to stop, but apparently, she’d decided this was the hill she would die on. Nuns had a certain amount of status and power in this world. More than commoners, at the very least. Even the daughters of nobles sometimes became nuns. There was no reason for this woman to fear a mere maid. "Natural? What do you mean by that?”
conversations.prefix: Maid:

conversations.value:  “Think about it. Same-sex partners can’t produce children—it’s a relationship that bears no fruit.”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “If birthing children is a condition of legitimate love, then heterosexual couples who are unable to conceive must not be valid either.”

conversations.value:  “Well…”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “And if being natural is desirable, should you refuse medical treatment when you’re sick? Medical science defies the course of nature in every instance of its use.” The nun probably didn’t expect me to debate her like this. She grew red in the face and started tripping on her words. “Such sophistry…”

conversations.value:  “Please, tell me specifically which part of what I said was sophism. Otherwise, I’ll take your dispute as nothing more than an emotional argument.”

conversations.value:  “It doesn’t matter what sort of glib answers you come up with. Homosexuality is not normal, and it is practiced only by a heretical few!”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  So she had switched to the numbers argument. “I’ll accept that there are fewer homosexuals than heterosexuals. But what does that prove? What is wrong with a number being smaller?”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “It’s proof that it’s not normal!”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “All right, so a higher number means something is ‘normal’? But you haven’t yet explained why the ‘abnormal’ smaller number ought to be considered bad.”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Well…because…”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “Do you think happening to belong to a majority means you have the right to attack someone in a minority?”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Argh… Never mind your logic! This—this heresy, it’s disgusting!”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “And there it is. Pure physiological disgust. You can’t understand it, and you don’t want to understand it, so you simply attack it.”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “And what’s wrong with that? !”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “But wouldn’t your own Church object to such rank discrimination? I thought you taught equality under the spirits. Are you sure these values of yours aren’t in violation of the Church’s teachings?” The nun stopped short, the color draining from her face. “I don’t want to refute or show you contempt.”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “I only want you to be freed from your bias against homosexuality. There was silence."
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “I won’t even ask you to understand, then. But can’t you at least respect them?”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “Are you a homosexual too?” she asked, some of the hostility leaving her voice. This nun wasn’t a bad person. As I’ve said before, hers was the prevailing opinion in this world. All she did was give it voice.
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “Yes.”
conversations.prefix: Maid:
conversations.from: human
conversations.value:  “I…I cannot acknowledge this yet. But I believe I understand what you want to say. I will think on it. When—if I devise a rebuttal, then perhaps we might debate again.”
conversations.prefix: Nun:
conversations.from: gpt
conversations.value:  “Thank you very much."
