Here's how I see it. Where ALL children are attracted to lying and display it to some level of proficiency, only a very very few are attracted to homsexuality. So in my mind, that makes it 'not' the same thing. There's something very very different.
>>The reason the "gay" community is so adamant about clinging to the theory that they're "born that way" is to attempt to make it morally equivalent to natural sexual relations between a man and a woman, and to defeat the legions of "ex-homosexuals". <<
Now there's a point I get which I didn't understand before this thread. I have found out that by virtue of my belief in an indirect or direct genetic cause, that makes me PRO homosexual.
You have no idea what a joke that is.
>>But there are thousands of ex-homosexuals.<<
I hope that's true and I hope there are great things happening in this area but being I believe what I believe my guess is these ex-homosexuals are like reformed alcoholics...they have learned to repress their behavior. And that's a good thing.
I am a reformed alcohol and by God I am NOT repressing my urge to become intoxicated. I have fought it, and won the fight. The battle is over and has been for many years. You could dangle any kind of intoxicating drink, smokable or any kind of substance in front of me and leave me alone with it and I tell you the truth that I would not be tempted.
So your analogy is wrong. If you investigate your statements, you will notice that they are ALL based on fact-free opinion. If you study up on the subject of homosexuality, you will have your eyes opened. The Categorical Index of articles on every aspect of homosexuality that Scripter has put together and EdReform usually links to will give you the facts you need to have an informed opinion.
Opinions are worth nothing if they are based on our personal feelings and emotions. Nothing.
Here's my own basic link to that Index: (there is an updated version and if you click on scripter's profile page you'll find it.)
