Very choppy excerpt, I do recommend reading the entire article.

She was born straight. Something got screwed up along the way.

My guess. A hunk, A type, player of a ski bum...

Which crushed the flowering young lesbian. If my “girlfriend” can switch sides...

+++++++

Then I heard the news: My girlfriend was cheating on me with an undereducated, semi-homeless guy out in Tahoe.

Slowly, I came to understand that “making me straight” wasn’t the answer. There is no biblical command to be heterosexual.
Yes there is. Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5, Mark 10:7-8, Ephesians 5:31.
Let’s rewind to the beginning. My parents met at a gay nightclub in San Francisco. My mother just wanted a safe place to dance. My father was the security guard. He abandoned my mother and me after abusing both of us physically. I didn’t even know he existed until I was 10, by which time my mother had remarried.

Growing up, I had no bedtime I can remember. I was allowed to watch horror movies at a young age. When it came to sex, nothing was hidden. There were jokes and stories and, when I was 10, I helped my mother clip images from an adult magazine for a bachelorette party. …
Well, that answers that.

Same sex attraction is a temptation I pity those who have to deal with it.

Fortunately, temptation is not sin but unfortunately, they will struggle all their lives unless God miraculously delivers them.

And He CAN take away those desires, if people repent and ask Him to.

The word "heterosexual" does not appear in the Bible. But the Bible does condemn outright the sinful behavior of sodomites (male and female). See Leviticus 20:13, Romans 1 and Jude.

1 Corinthians 6:9,10 -- says that homosexuals will not inherit the kingdom of God.

I would seriously reconsider what it means to be saved. Verse :11 refers to former sodomites in the past tense ("such were some of you", not "such are some of you").

Personal accounts of success or failure do not determine whether something is true. Truth is not dependent, it just is.

It's not hard to see what happened. From the article: Growing up, I had no bedtime I can remember. I was allowed to watch horror movies at a young age. When it came to sex, nothing was hidden. There were jokes and stories and, when I was 10, I helped my mother clip images from an adult magazine for a bachelorette party.

But in that wave of webpages, I started to encounter Jesus


What was Jesus doing on porn pages?
And I don’t mean why was he there.
What was he doing?

"because of this, God gave them over"
--Romans Chapter 1

Because of what?

Gave them over to what?

And what is the natural, punitive, physiological, mechanism God created to destroy the socio-biological fitness of cultures that ignore His guide for healthy living -- and choose to abominate nature instead?
