“Homosexuality is defined by behavior, i.e., unless one engages in sexual activity with a member of the same sex, he, or she, is not a homosexual. (Contrary to popular opinion, the term sexual orientation does not define one as a homosexual any more than the term, ‘lust’ defines one as a rapist or the term “anger” defines one as a murderer or the term “greed” defines one as a thief.)”

This one always confuses me. So are you suggesting that they’re only homosexual WHILE they’re actually having sex with someone of the same sex? If not, how long does the effect last, afterwards? What about someone who had a same-sex encounter once in prison twenty years ago, but got out and never looked back? What about those who are raped by others of the same sex? Does the act have to be voluntary? Do you have to have sex with the opposite sex to be heterosexual, or are there heterosexual virgins out there?

Do you seriously think that there’s no difference between a guy who has the hots for guys and one who has the hots for girls, as long as they’ve never had sex? Would you distinguish between which one you’d want to marry your daughter?

I think this idea that sexual orientation is a non-entity is really misleading. Are you suggesting that Peter Pace could become just as homosexual as Elton John by getting drunk and having one sexual encounter with a dude?

If someone steals, is he or she only a thief while he or she is committing the theft? If someone intentionally, with fore thought and malice, stabs another to death, is he or she only a murder while killing the other person?

On the other hand, if some merely thinks about taking something that rightfully belongs to another, but takes no action, is he or she a thief? Similarly, if a person becomes so angry with another, that they fantasize about stabbing that person, is the day dreamer a murderer?

Do the answers to these questions clear up your confusion?

… how long does the effect last, afterwards?

How long after committing a theft is one a thief? How long after committing first degree homicide does the perpetrator remain a murderer?

In deed, what about someone who intentionally cut anther person’s leg off as part of a gang ritual once twenty year ago, and never looked back?

What about those who are raped by others of the same sex? Does the act have to be voluntary?

If a bystander is shot by a thief in the course of a robbery, is the person who was shot guilty of theft?

Do you have to have sex with the opposite sex to be heterosexual, or are there heterosexual virgins out there?

Except for extremely rare cases of gynandromorphy, every person, even a homosexual behavior practitioner, is born heterosexual in that the person has the genitalia of one sex or the other.

Do you seriously think that there’s no difference between a guy who has the hots for guys and one who has the hots for girls, as long as they’ve never had sex?

Is there a difference between a guy who has the hots for sheep and one who has the hots for girls?

Have you ever heard of something called a false dichotomy?

Could Peter Pace become just as much a murderer as Sirhan Sirhan by getting drunk and shooting just one dude?
