And this is all you have to say?

ALL IN THE same week, Governor Mitt Romney, the US Catholic bishops, the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, and the Presbyterian Church USA drove themselves nuts over homosexuality....

I'll add "double puke alert," and ask what the "troll" graphic indicates. Are you a troll?
(Sigh!) This is just another example of how people twist morality to fit their own agenda. If the truth is told, homosexuality is not consistent with Christianity or good health. These things, however, are overlooked to satisfy the cult of the self. If I want it, it must be good. If I do it, it must be moral. And if you disagree with me, you are a bigot. We are never, never going to discuss this openly and honestly like all grown up people. We are simply going to make fun of, trash, or in anyway possible destroy people who disagree with the idea that homosexuality is healthy. No honest discussion. We're right; you're wrong. We're good; you're bad. The only problem I have is that this doesn't work any more. The truth is the truth is the truth, no matter how many times you call it a lie.
Rather, the question is, why is the Left so obsessed with thrusting homosexuality down our throats? They are just angry that they are being challenged.
Then again, homosexuals don't have a rational bone in their bodies.
Hello Folks and Happy New Year,
Jan 01, 2007 and also my first post (signed up with FR today).
Where can I pose questions on this topic? I know most fora have FAQs and appropriate places to post and I would like to follow those guidelines.
In the meantime, I'd like to post - first -- the background and then the question.
Background:
Over time I had participated in a couple fora that were political in nature. In those fora, the topic of homosexuality came up. In a recent case, the focus was on the propriety of having homosexuals in the military. It seemed to be divided into two camps:
Veterans (including myself) who opposed homosexuals in the military, and
Civilians who had never served, supporting it.
Problems in both forums came when I posted URLs to studies showing how homosexuals were quite different from heterosexuals, had a much higher incidence of acquiring HIV/AIDs and had other other nasty habits as well, making them unsuited for a variety of reasons.
In both cases, the mods deleted the posts, even though they were not accompanied by personal attacks or vilification, just studies.
On the other hand, anyone who opposed homosexuals and supported traditional values was personally attacked as biased, bigoted, hateful, stupid and homophobic.
There was no chance to show our side of the discussion because the mods had injected themselves into the debate, had clearly taken sides and deleted info that exposed the weaknesses of their position.
Question:
One of the methods used by the pro-homosexual side was to say that psycholgical 'studied showed' that those who opposed homosexuals were they themselves hiding their own latent homosexuality.
This struck me as akin to those accusing Jesus of being in league with the devil when casting out demons ('you cannot serve two masters.." etc.)
Has anyone published a study exposing this as a homosexual psycho-babble debating tactic?
It has all the earmarks of Leftist debate methodology all over it.

Wouldn't it be more accurate to reference: The Gay Obsession...with being perceived as "normal"?
Most folks don't care one bit what homosexuals get up to in the privacy of their own homes. It's when homosexuals try to force acceptance of their lifestyle choices on everyone else, and change public policy to attain that goal, that regular folks get tired of it and start pushing back.
Although a tech-dunce, am posting a few links that should give you lots of reaing and plenty of factual ammunition:

I studied psychology in graduate school, and I was taken aback by how most of the major thinkers in the world of psychology were also Marxists. Maslow, Piaget, Fromm, etc.
We need to drain the swamp of emotivism in our culture and society. Pope Benedict XVI has it right when he emphasizes the importance of reclaiming Platonistic/Aristotelian reasoning.
I could probably list half a dozen logical fallacies undergirding pro-homosexual arguments.
Welcome to FR by the way.
Happy New Year, to you and everyone else too!
don't mention it; they don't want to know, and wouldn't change even if they did.
