Cruel Joke or Medical Anomaly? Proponents of same-sex "marriage" owe us an answer

The Physiology of Mankind

"Love and marriage, love and marriage, go together like a horse and carriage. This I tell ya, brother, you can't have one without the other." Neither can you have a marrriage without a man and a woman, unless you’re the Massacheutts Supreme Court–to whom I ask the following question.

Why is one hundred percent of the homosexual population physiologically heterosexual?

When I asked that question before a group of university students, one said the question contained a presumption–that homosexuals were physiologically heterosexual. I am always open to differing views, yet he offered no explanation. In postmodernism one need not waste syllables buttressing one’s views—verbalizing a belief automatically makes it factual. Hubert Humphrey said, "The right to be heard does not automatically include the right to be taken seriously." The student reminded me of a man who, on another occasion, steadfastly disagreed when I said that at conception the man determines the sex of the child. "Every man has a right to his own opinion, but he does not have a right to his own set of facts."

My statement regarding human physiology is neither sexist nor politically motivated. It is a fact.

Look at this statement from two perspectives—first, a theological perspective and second, a medical perspective.

If in fact God creates some people as homosexuals, we must conclude that God has played a cruel joke on them. He has engineered their minds and emotions for attraction to the same-sex and yet created their physiology to be in direct opposition to that attraction. Such an act would be malicious. Only a sadistic god would conceive and conduct such a horrific deed.

Look at the statement from a medical perspective! If homosexuality is a naturally occurring phenomenon—a legitimate alternative to Mankind’s expression of sexuality, we would have to conclude that homosexuals bear severe physiological anomalies.

I am aware the previous conclusion may infuriate some; few things anger people more than uttering a logical thought. Truth has always angered people—which is why some wise sage cautioned, "Tell the truth and run!"

But alas I do not believe the conclusion because I do not believe homosexuality to be moral.

If for no other reason, homosexuality is illegitimate in that it is anatomically unsuitable.

The Ingenuity of the Physical Body

Regardless from where you believe Mankind originated, we must agree that the human body is the work of a genius. How do we account for tear ducts that automatically flush the eye when a microscopic grain of sand invades them? Who can fathom how an arm or leg produces chill bumps, which in turn raises the hairs on those limbs in order to reduce the amount of body heat being expended by a cold wind?

These mysteries of the human body include libido. When sexually aroused, the woman’s body changes through a series of preparations. Her vagina lengthens for a distinct reason. Her body, equipped with Bartholin’s gland, produces lubrication for a distinct reason. More intricate than any scientific invention ever conceived or constructed, the outer third of her vagina swells with blood for a distinct reason. The Psalmist was correct--we are "fearfully and wonderfully made." (Psalm 139:14)

But these incredible workings lead us to another question which refuses to be ignored--why would such physiological changes occur in homosexual women when the changes do nothing to assist sexual interaction?

One cannot simply dismiss the question as irrelevant. If God makes no mistakes, and He does not, what accounts for this dichotomy among homosexuals? If homosexuality is "natural" why the inappropriate and unnecessary body changes?

No legitimate answer exists. God desires each of us to become personally what He has created us to be physiologically, biologically and anatomically.

The Universality of Sin

The answer to why homosexuality exists is sin—a universal condition unconfined to homosexuals; one hundred percent of the world’s population are sinners. "…for all have sinned and come short of God’s glory." (Romans 3:23)

And the answer to sin is Jesus Christ who, by the way, performed His first miracle during the marriage of a man and a woman.

The proponents of homosexual "marriage" appear to have all the answers. What say ye? Is this phenomenon a cruel joke or a medical anomaly?

100% of homosexuals have the physiology of a heterosexual.

Awesome point!

Excellent post.

The first tenet of design: form follows function.

[xzins]

Why does a homosexual woman's body do everything in the world to prepare it for reproduction?

Excellent question.

Answer: because she's actually designed to receive a male.

Amazing isn't it? But you are 100% correct: form follows function.

[moondoggie]

I agree....excellent post!

Further proof, IMO, that "gayness" is a mental illness and the APA erred by succumbing to pressure from the homosexual community in removing it from their list of pyschological disfunctions.

Bottom line...we're ALL born heterosexual.

[doodad]

APA erred by succumbing to pressure from the homosexual community

Actually, I heard it was coercion from within. The APA was infiltrated and those members succeded in removing the label.

pretty hard to argue with logic, but you know they'll try....

How postmodern. Just because the author says there is a god who has created people, doesn't make it so. What's the patent number for his device to detect and measure god?

[Revelation 911]

my gay sister would no doubt bristle at such a notion - ...........must mean its right on

I love this line

Only a sadistic god would conceive and conduct such a horrific deed.

We know this not to be the case - Our God sent His only divine Son to accept the sin of mankind....so that we may know the Father through Him

nice post

[fml]

Great post. Trying to confuse them with facts yet again.

[babble-on]

don't bother

[WKB]

Excellent post.

AMEN

[xzins]

He allowed above either a theistic or a non-theistic model. Regardless from where you believe Mankind originated, we must agree that the human body is the work of a genius.

I think his point is that the body's design is irrefutable argument than all are made to be heterosexual.

This is especially compelling if one adopts a theistic perspective.

[xzins]

The facts are definitely there for consideration, aren't they.

The design and the physiological reactions are all those of a heterosexual intent.

Just precisely WHY does a female homosexual NEED her vagina to lubricate????

And if they place a foreign object therein, just what exactly are they simulating?

God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

I'm a very conservative evangelical Christian, but have a different "take" on homosexuality than this column.

My nephew was born with physical defects: club feet, had a colostomy, messed up spine, and so on. He's had dozens of major surgeries to address these defects.

Some babies are born with Down's Syndrome, another physical defect, that's also got mental components.

Similarly, I believe some people can be born with psychological defects that leave them with homosexual desires.

I *also* believe that children can become "homosexual" through "nurture," just as someone can get a physical defect through a car accident.

Finally, just as someone with a physical defect is right to seek medical attention, a person with this homosexual defect is right to seek to become healthy. If they don't, then they're doubly messed up.

Ted.

[xzins]

Ted,

The point, though, is that the body is made heterosexual. It responds like a heterosexual. It procreates like a heterosexual.

That says a whole lot about the psychological theory you've proposed. Homosexuality is nurture, not nature.

Ok, xzins, this is the POD, Post of the Day, as far as I am concerned. What a COMPELLING point - and purely squared conclusion. Utterly Outstanding, and thank you.

Darkbloom, Violette, what say you indeed??

"Truth has always angered people—which is why some wise sage cautioned, "Tell the truth and run!" "

In ancient Troy, some greeks left a gift. There was a man, a priest actually, roaming the city streets, trying to warn them, to tell the truth to the Horse worshipping trojans that it wasn't actually a gift.

To him and his two sons a reward was presented for telling the truth. Posiden sent two huge marine serpents to grab and squeeze the three of them and pulled to them to a wet nevermore.

The name of the man who did the warning today is not well known...Laocoon.

BTW, this is the universal reason why Christians are persecuted, and why within the Secular Humanistic faith system, all the voices are unified. Heretics there are also equally persecuted, with rare exceptions (e.g., Horowitz).
