A “large number” of doctors in certain EU member states still view homosexuality as a disease, a report has revealed. Euroefe reports.

“The research also shows that there are still quite a number of healthcare professionals in several EU member states who believe LGBT people suffer from pathological diseases,” said Michael O’Flaherty, the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA).

A recent FRA report found that Bulgaria, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Poland and Slovakia are the EU countries where this misconception is most widely held.

This negative view of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people held by groups of professionals like doctors and politicians is a barrier to efforts to end discrimination and stop hate crimes, according to the report. …

And they are correct.

Many western doctors have been threatened into proclaiming that homosexuality is not a disease.

If it is not a disease, is it then simply a sin?

They certainly aren’t alone. Talked to some Chinese Business Men and they said in China only 1 out of 1,000 people are gay or lesbian.

everything about nature points to the survival of the species as the imperative.

an orientation that would wipe out mankind within a century, give or take a few years, is what I would consider a MAJOR mental or physical defect.

Since mental defects deal with neurochemicals anyway, it is actually a physical defect also.

I predict the next ten years will not go well for ‘open’ perverts.

When Judaism demanded that all sexual activity be channeled into marriage, it changed the world. The Torah’s prohibition of non-marital sex quite simply made the creation of Western civilization possible.

It’s a psychological/ behavioral disorder with roots in childhood. To the left it’s an opportunity to classify another group of people outside the mainstream as victims and add them to their coalition of victims. So they will never acknowledge what it really is.

An abomination (Hebrew “to’ebah”; Greek “bdelygma”), I believe the Bible calls it.

perversion

1. (Psychology) any abnormal means of obtaining sexual satisfaction

Homosexuality is simply a perversion, like pedophelia or necrophilia.

It’s an obvious mental illness & very unhealthy physically. Homosexuals have a much shorter lifespan than the general public due to to their behavior. Our grandparents generation understood this simple truth....these days, not so much.

That demand was from the beginning. And from the creator of marriage.

Slippery slope. One of the first means of de-stigmatizing homosexuality was to shift it from being a moral crime to an “illness”. Even the word “homosexual” itself was coined by a left-wing journalist from Austria-Hungary, one Karl-Maria Kertbeny (né Benkert), who also coined “heterosexual” and campaigned for the removal of the stigma on this behavior.

What I cannot figure out:

Even if there is a homosexual inclination, the choice whether or not to give in to it is still there. It's not like there's a genetic component telling a gay person "have sex or die".

The homosexual lobby, the abortion lobby too, sees humans as creatures of uncontrollable instinct.

The battle is not between left and right. It is between the flesh and the soul.
