I absolutely disagree. We have--or we can have, we have the potential to have and capability of having--100% control over our urges. You can train yourself to respond or not to respond to all sorts of stimuli. It is just absurd to think that some little baby boy in the nursery is destined or doomed to be a homosexual. It depends upon him and how he is brought up.

I believe we can attain some control over our appetites and feelings, though it might take a lifetime. In the short run, though, even if you can't change your feelings, you can change your behavior so that you don't violate moral norms. That's the part that's obligatory.

Agreed, though a whole lifetime is too long to have to be bound by any besetting sin!
