Season 2 of the West Wing was 2000-2001, roundabout seven years ago.

Actually, it's older than 7 years. Peter McWilliams' fantastic book, "Ain't Nobody's Business If You Do: The Absurdity of Consensual Crimes in Our Free Country", he wrote a chapter called...

WHAT JESUS AND THE BIBLE REALLY SAID ABOUT CONSENSUAL CRIMES

The book was published in 1990

Who pwned who when I mention that jinx's link mentions the West Wing episode, indicating that neither of us read her link before making our respective posts?

I remember watching the episode when it aired, and I remember thinking that they'd neatly worked in the email which had just been going around.
