In reading other articles, it appeared that Gov Perry was thinking of alcoholism having a claimed genetic link and comparing that to homosexuality which also claims a genetic link. As with homosexuality, the link is very weak if it’s even there....personally, I don’t think it’s there.
Perry, though, makes a good point: an alcoholic doesn’t have to act it out. He can say no to a destructive behavior.
My sense is that it takes real guts for Perry to say this.
He would make an infinitely better president than Obama, Hillary, any other democrat, and most republicans.
I’m with you as science is still silent on genetic links for homosexuality. Unfortunately, linkages and traits are almost always misrepresented by the media. It’s really sad the subject cannot be investigated without bias and politics getting in the way.
Indeed, it takes real guts for Perry to say that and I agree, dear brother in Christ, he would be infinitely better as President than any of those.
