Homosexuality used to be considered a mental illness by the American council of psychology. They were overrun by practicing homosexuals and reversed their position. Following that, the campaign to "normalize" homosexuality began.
You are correct, it is a crime against God, man and nature, however it is also an offense that requires institutionalization as these people are clearly insane or so horribly maladjusted that they cannot be mixed safely with the general population. They must be isolated and treated. Prison works just as well, IMHO so long as they never mix with the population again.
I think homosexuality can be treated to a point, but there is absolutely a difference in the severity of the affliction. Some can live normal, even describably conservative lives among us. Love the sinner, hate the sin.
Others are more of the flamboyant, in your face types who are so highly unstable their behavior is unpredictable. These are "high risk" individuals who could easily go over the edge and either harm themselves or the innocents around them. There is clearly an obvious disfunctionality here that can be categorized by several mental disorders. These people need help and treatment, and should not be mixed with the general population. Think "San Francisco".
Anyway, I believe both disorders are aspects of mental illness and will not describe them as anything else.
And yet, they are criminal acts IMHO at many levels as well. Let's not break them down to the how and why, we'd both like to be able to eat today.
Cheers and thanks for fighting the good fight.
The sickness -vs-crime excuse is ludicrous and applies to no other ‘sickness’. Lets talk pyromania- sick obsession with fire doesn’t mean you don’t incarcerate someone who burns down a building for arson- or murder if its inhabited. How about serial killers? They get their jollies murdering because they like it-hardly ‘normal’ but that doesn’t protect them from incarceration and execution. ‘Sickness’ is the excuse for everything now. I suppose if you are blitzed on medication for the flu and mow a family down with your car you should be excused because you were ‘sick’?
These homosexuals are mentally ill- but so is Charles Manson- he is incarcerated, why shouldn’t they be? Anyone who can in ANY way excuse someone who preys on children should be castrated, gagged with their own severed penis until dead and left in a dumpster for the trash collectors. Same goes for any women who excuse or enable this evil. Anyone who claims to work for God deserves worse.
