True, but we should be careful not to oversimplify the idea of nurture being the prime factor when it comes to determining sexual orientation. It is likely to be a specific event or combination of events that causes the shift, rather than just a general environment growing up. Since even in the same household no two children’s experiences during childhood are the same, this would seem very plausible and the trigger could be something very innocuous or benign.
There can be only one answer, if you accept that homosexuality is genetic, and that's that the homosexuality gene is a genetic defect.
please folks, don’t use “gay” and allow these perverts to control our language.
i have a simple logical question. if male queers were born to be that way, then why do they produce sperm and why are lesbians born with the means to reproduce ?... that is something for which they obviously have no need.
ergo demonstratum.
Well, I have an undergraduate science degree but it doesn’t take that to know that this headline is way past propaganda, its a lie.
The story is that the found a possible link
With global warning, the public think now is that they get to have an opinion. So people fight over issues that are truths. Either there’s a gay gene or there isn’t. They haven’t proven it
But they just have to think about our creator, which most don’t. How were we created?
As in alcoholism, either its learned and devoloped or it is genetic. It’s likely both depending on the person. In either case, the behavior is the issue. Stop it. It’s destructive
You are correct sir! It is the dumbass gene, which seems to go hand in hand with the liblooney gene!
Each soul is unique... Having raised four children I can attest to that.....
Think of the ameliorating effects of Christianity on such a character. The same would apply to homosexuality.
Functionally, no. They can make more, they’re just not attracted to women.
Excellent commentary.
Any comments?
Very good!
“It is likely to be a specific event or combination of events that causes the shift, rather than just a general environment growing up.”
Very true. The environment sets the predisposition, then a triggering event sets the pattern.
In one situation, I was working with a very strong willed lesbian activist. She had a very dominant controlling religious mother who ran her life in all aspects. She went away to college and had a lesbian experience. When she told her mother, her mother’s response was... then “If you are gay, you are no daughter of mine!”
She instantly achieved the separation from her mother and the freedom she had been seeking since she was 12 yrs old. The gay community is a very strong self validating community, much the way gangs are for teenagers. It gave her a new identity and peer pressure group.
This young woman did not have a predisposition to being gay, thus it created a lot of inner turmoil. She became an angry activist as if she could convince others that her lifestyle was ok, it would validate her and she could accept herself.
When she realized her pattern, it set her free.
It could be recessive.
Also, consider a primitive pre-patriarchal society. The male offspring would "leave his father and his mother", and go find a wife and live with her clan. His abilities would be lost to his blood relatives. A homosexual offspring, on the other hand, might be more willing to stay around and help raise his nieces and nephews, thus indirectly forwarding his genetic line.
It would not be ironic,it would be another affirmation that the bible is the only consistent moral authority.
Being gay could be in the DNA>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Gays are created . Look at long term prisoners in penitentiaries. They become “queers”. Its learned behaviour.
And now the left wants us to believe they are all “intrinsically gay?”
No. Its learned behaviour.Gays can unlearn their sexual orientation.Try creating prisons which house lesbians incarcerated along with the majority heterosexual males and watch what happens.
First he states his conclusion as a rock-solid fact: "NOTHING to do with choice." Then he says his evidence "affect" whether a man is gay or straight (not DETERMINE), and goes on to say a pre-natal test would not be very accurate. Stay tuned for further weasel wording and waffling.
LOL -- and genetics are a result of global warming, no doubt! Ban genetics!
How do boys who were abused by homosexuals become gay? Osmosis?
I believe this is all spiritual.
Ephesians 6:12
King James Version (KJV)
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
What is it was 100% proven that some people are born with a propensity to homosexual behavior?
What if some people are born with a propensity to kill? Shall we celebrate the murderer?
What if this propensity could be removed?
What if the answer isn’t in science or medicine?
A final note. Do not misunderstand what is at stake here. This is not merely a culture war. This is not even about normalizing homosexuality even. This is about the age old, epic battle between the forces of good and evil. And this is the latest skirmish in which evil is determined to make the God of Heaven and Earth look foolish. It’s an attempt to mock God’s order and to tear it down.
butter not
porque it is not nice to fool with mother nature
