"...Apparently you don't know the difference between vicious and accurate, invective and concise..."

I'm not sure if I should step into the middle of this fight, but here goes.

If someone is truly comfortable with who and what they are, and if what they are is right and correct, they won't care what anyone calls them (and frankly, neither should you).

I suspect the young lady in question is absolutely not comfortable with herself. If the article is accurate (very big if), she seems to be suffering from the adverse psychological effects of a dysfunctional upbringing, of which her "lesbianism" is just her latest anti-social manifestation.

I don't have an opinion as to whether or not homosexuality is a sin (I know what the bible says, and I agree). I just try to express my opinions with tangible arguments that even liberals can understand. That way I can beat them over their pointy little heads w/logic and reason, because they so seldom understand matters of faith, so they routinely dismiss them. But, there've long been pretty clear indications that it's a mental disorder, regardless of current politically correct assertions to the contrary.

If she "gay" then she's also 4-6 times more likely to be more prone to be suicidal, addictive, depressed, abusive/abused, and/or neurotic than the general population (and don't lay the burden of that on society's "intolerance", that's bullshit, most people don't care whom anyone else sleeps with until someone else makes it an issue by). I always thought "gay" meant happy, not neurotic, narcissistic, nihilistic, and self-destructively sexually compulsive.

That's what her mother (and you, I guess) should be worried about. Not whether or not someone calls her names.

BTW, I personally don't call them anything but homosexuals. It's what they are.

Please jump in. Good comments.

I have not said anything about the fact that a typical homosexual lifestyle is less healthy than a typical heterosexual lifestyle, and that heterosexuals are, generally speaking, happier, more productive people than are homosexuals. Nor have I said anything about the Bible condemning sex acts between men in very strong terms. These facts are demonstrably true.

What I do have a real problem with is the use of invective and personal attacks as a substitute for an intelligent, reasoned argument.

I'm also curious as to what mr. bbm's point is. That might actually be a valuable discussion. Acting like a potty-mouthed 10-year old is not.
