BTTT. If only I had this when I was debating someone at NationStates.net over gay marriage...

[Laissez-faire capitalist]

Massively informative. This is almost overwhelming.

Thanks. Check my profile for occasional updates.

I didn't have a chance to say this, since I responded to scripter first, but I want to say that this is a throughly well-compiled article. Excellent.

I also was unaware that the CDC was religion-based.

LOL!

Ping for future reference.

Teenagers at the local HS think it's 'cool' to be Bi-sexual or homo/lesbi-sexual. This is being copied by a parent to use in sex-ed with her teen children.

THANK YOU to the author. You did a LOT of work and I'm grateful.

I'm glad you foung this thread helpful. I'm surprised this type of thinking is going on in GA. But then again in Conyers, Georgia a quiet, affluent, suburb of Atlanta had a huge syphilis outbreak which infected 17 residents and forced another 250 to get medical treatment. More shocking was the fact that the outbreak showed itself among teens—even kids as young as 12.

Some of these youths reportedly had as many as 100 sexual partners, and others say they regularly attended sex parties where they’d pair off or gather in groups for quick liaisons—sometimes watching the Playboy channel on cable TV and mimicking the behaviors they saw.

As time goes by, the vile anti-social behavior of Queers steadily gets worse and worse . . . as this current FReeper article demonstrates!!! Therefore, allow me to repeat my own personal rant one more time:

Oak Hay, so I'm very disturbed and continually puzzled about how a small bunch of contrary to nature freaks can destroy our entire civilization. . . BUT DAMMIT, THEY'RE DOING IT !!!

These unsavory and unclean sub-human creatures delight in ramming their urine exhaust pipes into the rectal relief tubes of young boys (and of each other) !!! They brag and crow loudly about their filthy behavior !!! They demand access to our young and innocent children... so they can commit sodomy and oral sex acts upon them!!! Then they scream and holler...

"Homophobe"

... when we seek to save our children from their filthy and immoral activities!!! WHY IS THIS ALLOWED TO CONTINUE IN THIS ONCE-FREE REPUBLIC ??? DO WE NOT HAVE THE RIGHT AND MORAL DUTY TO PROTECT OUR CHILDREN FROM SLIME LIKE THIS ???

Ed Reform, thanks for pinging me to this thread; bookmarked.

Coleus, thanks for all your hardwork it took to put this information together. Kudos to you! What a wealth of information.

[EdReform]

Homosexual Agenda RE-Ping! For those who have signed up for the list recently, those who'd like to re-read, and those who want to save basic information for themselves and others.

This article goes over some common myths about homosexuality, states the truth, and is very basic information that unfortunately is not commonly seen in the media.

Good to pass on to others - friends, family, fellow congregants, employees, students, and so on. Also at work, if you won't get fired. Maybe even then.

Let me and DirtyHarryY2K know if anyone wants on/off this pinglist.

2. A co-twin study found that men with same-sex partners were 6.5 times as likely as their co-twin to have attempted suicide. The higher rate was not explained by mental health or substance abuse disorders. (Herrell, R. et al (1999) "A Co-twin Control Study in Adult Men" Archives of General Psychiatry. 56, 10: 867 - 874.)

I would sure be interesting in knowing how many "co-twins" were a part of this study. I don't know many twins, but none of the ones I've known were unalike in their sexual preferences. Does anyone here know of any?

Really fascinating read, Coleus. Thanks.

[UnChained]

Thanks!

Coleus, I'm late in hitting the sack, but I've tried finding the original articles from which these were compiled, but can't. Can you give me a link? I would like to send someone to read them at the original source. Thanks so much.

I'm sorry, this is all I have.

I have some questions about this very informative article. The first question concerns this statement:

Homosexual activist groups pressured APA committees to remove homosexuality from the APA’s approved list of disorders. In spite of the long documented history showing that therapists have helped homosexual clients reduce and change their homosexual tendencies, professionals who persist in viewing and treating homosexuality as a changeable condition are labeled unenlightened, prejudiced, homophobic, and unethical.

1) Does anyone know where I might find the "long documented history" showing that therapists HAVE indeed helped homosexual clients reduce and change their homosexual tendencies? Gays are always saying that homosexuality can't be altered because it's "who one is" not "what one does." It would be really handy if I had some evidence that gays have been permanently helped.

Thanks.

P.S. I noticed in Fast Fact #82 that Throckmorton wrote on article on ex-gays for the APA Journal in 2002; but it no longer appears in the archives of the APA website. Interesting.

[Mockingbird For Short]

Concerning:

There is currently a movement within the APA to normalize pedophilia that appears to be following the same path to legitimization as homosexuality. See Fast Facts#1-3, 4-23,35-40,41-58,77-82

I couldn't find any documentation for this statement in the Fast Facts. Does anyone know anything about the APA trying to normalize pedophilia?
