Thanks, good honest answer that validates my point.

My point being that being gay is hard wired and difficult to alter ver y much like the child molester. However, at least the gays for the most part do their gay things with consenting adults.

But I still have a hard time believing that Gays or Child Molesters can be fixed.

I did not validate that. It has little to do with genetics, although I would concede there probably is genetic influence in some cases. But to it is hard wired is not supported by any scientific evidence. Even the somewhat flawed twin studies suggest genetics only plays a partial role in influencing homosexual behavior, and they did not show that it is even close to being hard wired.

I don't believe it's anymore hardwired than any other sinful tendency.

The more a person practices a behavior or fantasizes about it the more they become oriented toward it.

I know married people who said they had homosexual temptations at times in their life but they didn't act on it. And that was the end of it.

Tendencies and temptations do not define who we are in life but rather the choices we make and if we believe Christ then we know we can be freed from both the sin and the identity.

That's an opionion, actually.

Why is it that so many male homosexuals were raped by homosexual adults when they were children? Sounds like a psychological would that can be healed to me.
