Based on what?
"It is unhealthy, abnormal, dysfunctional, perverse and always the result of mental sickness or trauma."
Your opinion, followed by a falsifiable claim. If homosexuality is ALWAYS the result of mental sickness or trauma, then why are there homosexuals who have neither?
"These attractions must be cured for the health of the sufferer and of society."
What if the "sufferer" isn't suffering? Why should it be society's business?
Same-sex Attraction Disorder IS the mental illness. You simply refuse to acknowledge this because you are afflicted with it.

Go back and read scripter's (or was it edreform's) links on the medical consequences of what 'homosexuals' do. It's an unhealthy lifestyle to the practitioner, resulting in increased medical and social costs to the rest of us. (AIDS would not exist in this country if not for homosexual behavior).
Likewise, since our future depends on our children we cannot let the children become infected with this mental disease.
Now if the 'sufferer' volunteers to be quarentined away from the rest of society then I have no problem with how they choose to kill themselves. However, if they expect to live, work and play around normal people than they had better keep their perversion to themselves. The moment they demonstrate homosexual behavior in public they are breaking the society's mores and should be shunned. Consider it social leprosy.
Any exposure of children to homosexual behavior is child abuse
