I have never seen evidence for a homosexual gene. There is evidence that sexual identity and orientation takes place in the 12th-14th weeks of gestation, when the sexes begin to differentiate. There are many factors in the maternal environment that seem to affect the baby’s development. The study of epigenetics is new but HUGE.
There is also a lot of evidence, in animal studies but some human as well, that the effects of plastics and hormones in our environment have penetrated our bodies and wombs to such a degree that our babies are affected. Some of the milder genital deformations are becoming practically epidemic (hypospadias in boys). Infertility in young women is a huge problem.
So maybe 95% of gays are not wrong when they say they just WERE born that way. If pollution and plastics can cause frogs to be hermaphroditic, why are humans immune from these things?
Let’s give these people the benefit of the doubt. No need to go along with any liberal libertine agendas. But let’s not mock and rip these people for something they did not ask for, nor for their going along with society’s endorsement of the crude boystown lifestyle, when these young kids don’t see any conservative alternatives.
Wow, after complimenting you I must disagree.
Yes, homosexuals want acceptance, and indeed, glorification because of WHAT THEY DO. It’s not about “who they are” - simply because all of life is viewed through their perverted sexuality.
I dislike homosexuality because of its evil effects on its practitioners. Every teenage boy dreams of unlimited sexual contacts, with no negative effects. The dream is of a world of willing sexual partners, and fun sex without ramifications.
This is an idiotic dream. Once you stop masturbating and start interacting you find out that’s true. The sexual experience is far and away best when both partners love and care about each other. When they don’t, as in prostitution and “hook ups”, the result is little better than masturbation, and often worse. How often have you heard about “beer glasses” or seen heartache from “the morning after” ? The stories are legion.
The inevitable conclusion of that is a committed, loving relationship (aka marriage) is the premier relationship for a positive sexual life.
But because the poor male homosexuals stopped developing emotionally at the “I want to have sex whenever I can with anybody I can” teenage stage, they never come close to the ideal. The poor female homosexuals, who hate and fear men, are similarly precluded. Both live rather empty, sad lives. The males spend their lives pursuing promiscuity, while the women experience very high rates of domestic violence.
With “gay marriage” they’re asking you to acknowledge and approve these disfunctional relationships.
As a Christian, when one sees somebody hurting themselves and others, one might want to point out that what they’re doing is hurting themselves and others. That strikes me as the “loving” thing to do.
Acknowledging them as having an “equal” relationship seems idiotic. Or shall we see “love stories” where the “lovers” start their “romance” in a public restroom ?
