“Why would a person consciously CHOSE a lifestyle that will alienate his family, his friends, expose him to a life of derision and ridicule?”
In today’s day and age with the homosexualist agenda brainwashing folks non-stop via the courts, the media, the public school system, and Hollyweird, I think many folks would consciously choose to get involved in homosexual activity. Which is what the left has wanted all along in order to destroy the traditional/biblical family and get everyone dependent on the government, Jean Jacques Rousseau style.
“Some people are simply born this way, percentage-wise, it’s about the same percentage of people born with a cleft palete, a club foot or other birth defect. I think we can both agree that this is not a ‘normal’ situation, as it is not designed to aide the species and does not replicate.”
Do pro-homosexual groups really like this argument? If so, I think they would be trying to tie themselves more to the disabled rights movement rather than the African Americans’ rights movement. But they want to brainwash everyone into thinking homosexuality is “normal” and even the disabled rights activists will usually concede that a cleft palate, a club foot, blindness, deafness or whatever disability is not normal.
Whether they ‘like’ the connection or not is irrevelant.
Birth defects affect ~3-4% of the population. Strangely, this is about the same percentage of gay people. Being Gay is not a favorable result, as this percentage is less likely to replicate - which is the entire purpose of having reproductive organs.
For years, the Gays insisted that they were a much larger percentage of the population, but recent surveys place the number back into the 3-4% range.
I do not subscribe into the ‘brainwashing’ idea. No amount of social pressure will make me lust after another man. No amount of social pressure will make me sexually desire another man. This is a hard-wired, hormone driven yearning. I do think that the gay community could foster ‘experimentation’; but at the end of the day - I do not think a ‘normal’ man could become a ‘gay’ man. Possibly bi-sexual; but not gay. IMHO, a ‘bi-sexual’ person is a person who simply wants their jollies and doesn’t particually care how they get them.
