Scott Walker: 'I don't know' if being gay a choice
http://www.cnn.com ^ | July 19, 2015 | Dana Bash

Posted on 07/19/2015 12:04:19 PM PDT by NKP_Vet

In a weekend interview with Republican presidential candidate Scott Walker about whether the Boy Scouts should allow gay troop leaders, CNN's Dana Bash asked Walker, "Do you think being gay is a choice?"

"I don't have an opinion on every single issue out there. To me, that's, I don't know," Walker answered. "I don't know the answer to that question."

The Wisconsin governor said he supports the current ban that keeps openly gay leaders out of the organization but that he believes the Boy Scouts, not government, should ultimately be able to decide that kind of policy.

What you do about it is certainly a choice.

I don’t know (for sure) either. Does that disqualify me from consideration? God loves them, and me, and all of us but hates our sin, which all of us commit.

I hope Walker is being honest in what he says, as so many others are liars.

I don’t care what Walker thinks of homosexuality. What I do care about is what Walker is willing to do with governmental power. Too mix metaphors: Better to be ruled by a wise Turk than a foolish Christian.

Walker understands the issue is one of governmental power the queer agenda is one more tool to consolidate tyranny.

LOL.

Oh, good grief, Scotty, All twin studies prove that homosexuality is a learned and acquired behavior. No babies (trust me, I gave birth and raised four boys and a girl) who were taught and modeled Christian Ethics by both mother and father and not allowed to be abused by any perverts or trained in the public schools to take Pride in sodomy, unlike the little Afghanis children, will turn out to be intrinsically warped. They wouldn’t be traumatized and fixated in immature stages, like a Jeffrey Dahmer or Adam Lanza who had man/boy porn all over his computer.

Children learn behaviors and they copy them, and they desire inappropriate or unnatural “things” when they have been warped by pornography or abused in childhood-—like Charlie Manson, who never even knew his father and whose mother was a teenage prostitute and tried to sell him when he was two at a bar.

Sick, warped children are shaped by their life experiences and evil, dysfunctional adults who have control over them.

All desires and habits are modeled and reinforced in childhood. Aristotle even knew this 2500 years ago that Virtue was habituated and learned in early childhood. Baby rapers are never born with that desire, nor are the people who desire mating with goats...They are evil, warped people who have been abused and neglected in early childhood and have no moral ethics.

An example:

Interesting, also, at the very end when he’s challenged on Amnesty, Walker claims that his prior support for “a path to citizenship” should apply to only LEGAL immigrants.

Besides the fact that there are plenty of “paths” for LEGAL immigrants already (and he knows that, of course), it also means that once you legalize millions of people that are Illegal today, then they can also become citizens (and vote), based on his own statement.

Is that any different from Rubio?

It’s a good answer. He’s not running for pres to lecture people on the subject, it’s not part of his platform.
So quickly dismiss the question and move on.

I watched children of friends that I was sure would grow up to be gay .......and they did. One was a boy the other was a girl.

I overheard a conversation of a woman bemoaning the fact that she had “ chosen” to be gay.

So I don’t have a solid yes or no answer to the question.

Gee, I dunno, Dana.

Do you think that pederasty and bestiality are choices? Or are they sexual perversions?

I think Walker is running a new kind of campaign. I’ve been waiting for a Republican candidate like this for awhile. He’s not getting drawn in. I think the other candidates know how dangerous Scott is to their presidential hopes.

“Tonette Walker’s cousin, Shelly, married another woman last month. Alex Walker, Scott and Tonette Walker’s youngest son, was a groomsman.”

This is absolute child abuse and evil—having your son glorify such a satanic, diabolical “union” of mutual masturbation, which strips reason, purpose and dignity from true marriage. It is a promotion of dehumanizing acts of the Samurai and the Spartans and todays Man/boy muslim cultures where sexism is supreme.

It is forcing Afghanis ethics on her children——where little boys are put into harems and used like women. It is paganism/satanism and irrational in a “justice” system which is based on Virtue, never the ugly vice of sodomy.

He’s a weasel. Pure and simple. I’ve said several times that I have really been following him for a few months to help make up my mind and I have.

Hope he gets beat in the Primaries early. He’d lose worse than Jebby and that’s saying something.

Walker tries to answer question on whether “gay” is a choice. How would you answer?

FReep Mail me if you want on, or off this Wisconsin interest ping list.

Most people won’t choose to have a mental illness... So what Walker is saying is true.

Engaging in homosexual acts is a choice... The underlying mental illness is not.

Yes, they do. Twin studies prove there is no “gay” gene. All homosexual cultures, and there have been many, have pederasty, like the Samurai and the Spartan cultures and today’s Afghani and Saudi cultures. Walid Shoebat stated that all elite Saudis prefer boys for sexual recreation-—it is just like the Spartan and Samurai cultures where pederasty is the norm. (Note-—even sodomite cultures knew the importance of mating with woman and is why the Greeks gave incentives for the males to mate with a women, although they preferred to only interact with males).

As Aristotle knew 2500 years ago, all behaviors are habituated and modeled in childhood.....there is no unnatural “desires” in children unless they have been abused and severely warped like the above.

All unnatural behaviors, like sodomy, are learned and habituated....it is why toxic cultures, like the homosexual Weimar Republic was so toxic to children who embed the culture, and our schools and Hollywood have been normalizing and glorifying sodomy since Deep Throat and “Will and Grace” so they could erase Christianity (”Kill God” group, like the evil Keynes wanted. http://keynesatharvard.org/book/Sugar_Keynes.html).

The plan is to destroy Virtue in our children and erase all Traditions and the words mother and father to destroy Western Civ so they can create an artificial Marxism utopia with no biological connections and all natural instincts are erased (no modeled mother and father roles). It is to collapse Christian culture—Individualism/Natural Rights/Private Property ideas (Cultural Marxism) and to do that they have to flip Good and Evil, and erase the worldview of Christianity which created the Constitution, Age of Reason and Modern Science and Individual Natural Rights from God.

They want collective rights so they can kill off the useless eaters and have people who have no care for parents, siblings, children, etc. and irrational, ignorant, evil populace. Vice creates slaves for the State. Freedom can’t exist without Virtue in people. (Socrates/Cicero/Founders).

That would be an excellent answer. Because nobody knows what causes homosexuality. Nobody really knows why some turn out that way.

Ever read your Bible, because God knows why people become Homosexual and he has made it very, very clear in his Bible:

It's brought on by serving the desires of oneself over God, in effect, making your desires your god or Idol.


Romans 1:18-32King James Version (KJV)

18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;

19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.

24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:

25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

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.
