WE ARE ALL HETERO AT BIRTH..... HOMO BY DESIRE.

For some this is true, but this is not the case for everyone. Blanket statements like this are shortsighted IMO. I have not seen credible evidence that homosexuality is any sort of genetic determination. What is more likely is that there are personality characteristics that make some individuals more likely to become homosexual due to environment. Too many individuals have struggled with and fought against same sex attractions to presume it is always and only a simple progression of deviant and immoral behavior.

Is homosexuality wrong? Scripture plainly states it is. Even from an evolutionary standpoint it is nonsensical. So what to do, accept it? I think not. Reject those who are engaged in homosexuality? Never. It's not easy; public resistance to the acceptance of homosexuality will always be considered a rejection of homosexuals. But Christ died for us all. If the prostitute that was brought before Jesus had been a homosexual man would He have said to stone him to death? Would anyone reading this have the right to throw one? I don't. How about you?

All I am saying is.....

Same sex attraction is an unwanted unasked for condition, however the behavior is always a choice of desire.

That is key to understanding the issues surrounding homosexuality. It's too bad politics has to interfere with studies of those characteristics and traits.

One of those characteristics, traits or gifts depending on how you look at the issues are effeminate men. One important issue many don't realize is there are many more effeminate straight men than gay men.
