“In an ironic twist, it is now those who wantonly fear gay people that are being labeled as mentally ill.”

Well, first off, who actually fears gay people? The term “homophobia” is a concocted word that tries to exploit real fear from the actual term “hydrophobia” which is a horrific disease.

I suppose that the attempt to mis-label and anathematize the normal God-given revulsion for perversion is the goal behind all of this.

>G. K. Chesterton once wrote, “The liberal always demands that the normal make way for the abnormal.” What he didin’t foresee was that it would be the defenders of the normal who would be accused of having something wrong with them. <

I’ve got a very liberal daughter, who has a very liberal boyfriend. Even this young man does not like advances from gays. This is one widespread “abnormality” we’re talking about.

Well, then. That would totally explain the puzzling assertion recently that rape no longer exists in the Netherlands...

Queer is a sin. OT and NT both affirm that it is.

Well then, it certainly must have taken courage to choose that screen name then.

Did you specifically wait until you could get the post # you wanted? I admire that kind of dedication.

Not wanting to watch two men sloppy kiss at the bus stop after a long day at work is not disabling fear.
“Yuck” is not equal to fear.

That's why the word homonausea was invented.

It would be interesting to see the results of polygraph tests given to all the people who are now championing homosexual “rights.” The question would be a simple one: do you find homosexual behavior i.e. “sex” revolting? The results of these polygraph tests would be published in all the major lib outlets.

As long as they fail to distinguish between:

* Fear of Homosexuality, Homosexuals or Homosexual life style.
* Dislike/Disapproval of same.
* Disagreeing with the Militant Homosexual Agenda.
* Not being 100% on board with everything gay, LGBTQ or special rights.

... they will remain confused.

"Just 42 years ago, homosexuality was considered a diagnosable mental illness"

I can remember up until that time that there was a stigma attached to homosexuality. While there were certainly a number of people who despised homosexuals, the majority of people most likely simply despised the act. They thought homosexuals had mental problems, but didn't hate them.

So then, were all those people, the great majority of adult Americans, hateful, mentally ill people? We're talking the great majority of adult Americans. That is what these uh "researchers" are now saying. If you don't find the act of a male jamming him member up the anus of another male normal, why, you're mentally ill.

That's a fascinating thought. I suppose if they stuck their member in someones ear, that would be normal too. The world has gone crazy

I’d like to see a study done on: Is liberalism a mental disorder? I’d like to conduct the study and arrange the results.
