German Health Minister Jens Spahn sent a clear, important signal on Monday when he declared that “homosexuality is not a disease and therefore does not need therapy to be treated.” He fleshed out his plans to ban so-called gay conversion therapy in Germany.

A mis-statement, yes?

On page 37, the other relevant result relates to men.

“Her Struggle”
It’s environmental, caused by birth control hormones in the water supply.
The leftards have been looking for that mythical “gay gene” since the 70’s and never found it. Even this year, a few articles came out that there never was one..
MEANING?
The faggots knowingly go homo because they want to.
Millions of people get tattoos or plastic surgery on healthy bodies. You don’t have to consider homosexuality a disease to want to get rid of it. Why is spain interfering with adults. What happened to my body my choice?
germany but it might as well be spain too.
It’s a behavioral disorder, nothing more or less. I happen to know several “former” gays. Guess they weren’t born that way after all, huh? I know I’m not allowed to make that observation. I need to just go on pretending that never happened.
It’s a fetish that deserves no more credence than the foot lickers, scat eaters, and goat humpers.
Homosexuality is not a disease. It’s a mental disorder.
JMHO.

Then if it is discovered that a new found faith in Jesus changes sexual orientation in homosexuals, does that make faith in Jesus illegal too?
It is one of mans greatest inhumanities to deprive said afflict of a pathway to successful rehabilitation. They will burn for it at judgement.
False choice. Most people don’t consider it a disease.
At its core it is spiritual hunger and self worship exhibited by rejection of original design.
It may not “be” a disease, but there is proof positive that engaging in homo-sex can carry diseases, some fatal.
“Homosexuality is not a disease”
Show me the science.
Vs this German loser and his article that wants to transform heterosexuals into homosexuals.
