Rubio: "Sexual Preference Is Something That People Are Born With" [VIDEO]

RCP ^ | 04/20/2015

"I also don't believe that your sexual preferences are a choice, for the vast majority of people," Sen. Marco Rubio said on Sunday's broadcast of Face the Nation. "In fact, the bottom line is that I believe that sexual preference is something that people are born with."

To the homos and also to the pro-aborts,
it’s always been about criminalizing disapproval.

[nfldgirl]

What a pig! And to think he constantly gets away with the crap he pulls.

[Darren McCarty]

I don't know if people are born with those preferences or it if was through environment.

Actions however are a choice. A guy and choose whether or not to give another dude a Lewinsky in the same way where I can choose whether or not to cheat on my girlfriend with another woman.

[Vigilanteman]

So is a proclivity for alcoholism. So is schizophrenia. So are a multitude or neuroses and psychoses.

Excellent point. Following the same mindset, according to the homo theorists, every Native American should just accept the fact that they are incurably alcoholic and just accept it and celebrate it. Then they should force the rest of the public to do likewise.

Two of the more successful tribes reject this notion outright-- the Osage and the Navajo. Large numbers of the Osage are Dry Baptists; large numbers of the Navajo are Mormon.

Even the Sioux in western South Dakota ban alcohol from their reservations and make a genuine attempt to try to discourage this self-destructive behavior, despite being arguably the least successful major tribe in actually doing so.

That covers some people, but what about all the Qs in LGBTQ? Wouldn’t those be people who have some decisions to make?

[HamiltonJay]

Sorry, but that’s bunk... While I do agree there are probably a small percentage born with homosexual tendencies, most are not.

Molested as a child, more likely to be homosexual

Lacking a father figure/overbearing mother increased likelihood of being homosexual.

etc etc etc.....

I will cede some may be born with the tendencies, but I’ve lived and seen way too much to buy into the complete lie that they are all born that way.

I look at this the same way I do with everything on this topic, its garbage. Politics has perverted any real science no this topic, the removal of homosexuality in the 70s from the DSM was not based on any science, it was a political move...and as much as the gay rights lobby wants to argue otherwise, no science to date has backed up that move.

[FatherofFive]

This is backed up by science, at least for some people. The developing male must be bathed in testosterone in utero. Otherwise his brain and nervous system will remain in its’ default female state.

That is correct. All humans start off female. Some of us 'become' male. Except in some cases, the process doesn't work, and the end product is defective. Like a hermaphrodite with sex organs of both a man and a woman. Or a man with the proper plumbing but is attracted to men. I don't know the defect that will produce a lesbian, other than physical appearance.

[Vaduz]

Rubio another finger in the wind guy who will suck up to anything for a vote RINO in action.

[RinaseaofDs]

As long as it remains a career suicidal move to study the causes and effects of homosexuality, we’ll only be speculating, like our dim friend Marco here.

The correct answer to the question is, “We frankly don’t know what causes homosexuality, and because the research is so politically charged, science may never shine its light on its question for the next 500 years. What we do know is that the union of two homosexuals doesn’t produce children, and since marriage is 99 percent about giving children what they need to grow up into responsible, successful, culturally contributing adults, I’d say that the government messing around in marriage in the first place was a giant, but hard-to-foresee mistake. The state had in interest in marriage because it had an interest in producing more citizens, and productive citizens at that. Better that all marriage were left to the religious, and all unions formed for legal reasons be made a matter of civil law. Take from that what you will.

Family and divorce court is so heavily biased against men that its a wonder people still marry. Shows you PT Barnum was right.”

Reporter: “But Senator, you’re married. Are you saying men shouldn’t get married?”

Senator: “Best thing I ever did, but I made that decision during a different age. I love my kids, but my hats off to people raising children in 2015. Deciding to have kids today is an extraordinary act of courage.”

[tbpiper]

I think this falls under the topic of 'besetting sins'. I'll use this definition:

"A besetting sin is one to which on account of our constitution, or circumstance or both, we are peculiarly exposed, and into which we most easily and most frequently fall.

In the life of every individual, there is a “besetting” sin that can tower like a mountain between the individual and God.(ref: http://www.dailywritingtips.com/a-besetting-sin/)

We may be born with it, but it is still sin and can still be overcome by the power of the resurrection. Rubio, I hate to say, seems to be pandering.

[ConservativeDude]

and why is a candidate for president commenting on this?

[SeekAndFind]

RE: and why is a candidate for president commenting on this?

Because they ASKED him. The more important question is this -— Why bother asking this anyway?

[itsahoot]

It matters that the leader of our government sticks his Johnson in someone’s behind or the fact that he finds it okay to do so.

Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

[afsnco]

All those former homosexuals say he’s a pandering moron. Homosexuality is a choice. Those who choose to no longer be homosexual prove this unequivocally. If homosexuality were innate, there’d be no such thing as a former homosexual.

[SeekAndFind]

I’d like Rubio to first tell us what the testimonies of these people are:

An amazing 2-hour documentary featuring scholars, ministers and dozens of testimonies of former homosexuals telling the story of how Jesus Christ can transform anyone with this struggle who comes to Him in repentance and faith. Available on DVD at http://www.masteringlife.org/index.ph

You can also watch a few of their stories here:

Are these people lying and self-deceived? If so, how do you prove that?

[ConservativeDude]

right.....

[Vinnie]

I happen to agree with him.
IMO. Not all but a very sizable percentage are born with the proclivity.

[SeekAndFind]

RE: Not all but a very sizable percentage are born with the proclivity.

So, is this proclivity IMMUTABLE? (like the color of one’s skin )?

Or can the person change?

[Pelham]

“I would also say that heterosexual males are “born with” the desire to be adulterous and polygamous. Therefore, it can’t be “wrong””

Exactly.

But for some reason women who dismiss homosexuality as normal still object to this most reasonable explanation of the male psyche, particularly when they are married to the male explaining it...

[Bob434]

[[I’d like Rubio to first tell us what the testimonies of these people are:]]

He will no doubt explain it by claiming those people were not ‘true homosexuals’ to begin with- that they were just experimenting, and later gave in to their natural desires-

These people who support the idea that being gay is genetic have got an answer for everything- just like global warming liars- where no matter which way the wind blows, “It’s man’s fault”- if it’s warmer, then man is to blame, if it’s cooler, then man is to blame- if someone who lived a gay lifestyle later repents and becomes hetero=- well then they weren’t ‘really gay’ to begin with- you can’t win with these idiots/liars!
