   All I can say is this is what the Ribbono Shel Olam warned us in Vayikra (Leviticus) 18, verses 22-30:

   You shall not lie down with a male, as with a woman: this is an abomination.
   And with no animal shall you cohabit, to become defiled by it. And a woman shall not stand in front of an animal to cohabit with it; this is depravity.
   You shall not defile yourselves by any of these things, for the nations, whom I am sending away from before you, have defiled themselves with all these things.
   And the land became defiled, and I visited its sin upon it, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
   But as for you, you shall observe My statutes and My ordinances, and you shall not do like any of these abominations neither the native, nor the stranger who sojourns among you.
   For the people of the land who preceded you, did all of these abominations, and the land became defiled.
   And let the land not vomit you out for having defiled it, as it vomited out the nation that preceded you.
   For anyone who commits any of these abominations, the persons doing so shall be cut off from the midst of their people.
   And you shall observe My charge, not to commit any of the abominable practices that were done before you, and you shall not become defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.

   These verses are also the last verses read from the Torah at Minchah on Yom Kippur.

   Want to pretend there are no Divine consequences to our actions? Then why bother with the Torah, Judaism and Israel in the first place!

   Go ahead and party but, remember, nothing is on the house.
