You leave out a fourth possibility, which is where I, and countless other alcoholics have found relief and sanity, and where I suspect homosexuals could find similar peace, and that is confronting it as a spiritual issue, where we have sought to fill a void with our deviant, self-destructive behavior.

Perhaps, but even though you have found relief from your alcoholism through spirituality, you are and always will be an alcoholic. The same can be said about gay people: Even if they are able to find relief from their affliction through religion, they are and always will be homosexual even if they no longer engage in homosexual behavior.

From my personal experience with the one pathology, I’d have to say that you’re most likely correct.

I don’t think the behaviors can compare becaue one is an actual drug interation with the body. The other is a behvior on the body.

Perhaps it is more akin to not having another tattoo on the body. Not one more piercing.

regardless, homosexual advocates did it to themselves because their entire lifestyle is defined by a recreational sex act.
