"'i am yet to meet a homo/bisexual who either wasnt suicidal, or raped, or just has problems at home'

What do you mean by that? It sounds as if you are saying that they were raped becuase they were homo/bisexual?"


no, i am saying a person is gay/bisexual because they were abused/raped/have issues.

Then you have met a very small cross section of the homosexual/bisexual community. Not all that have "chosen" that lifestyle have rape/suicidal issues. (And I would like to see these studies of increased alcoholism in gays)Some do make it a choice. Personally, I challenge someone to tell me what sex the emotion of love is. Depending on your belief system, souls have no sex either. So if you fall in love with a person, with who they truly are, what does their body have to do with it? What of those that have seriously deformed bodies, or are paralyzed? Should they be denied love because their abnormalities?
Even in the Christian faith, sex was meant to be a gift given to each other in marriage. In our times, it is a status symbol, or just another recreational activity. It has very little meaning as it did before.
By saying that the alternative sexual orientations are a byproduct of "issues", you say that being heterosexual is also result of "issues".
Our country prides itself in tolerance, freedom and humanitarian enterprises. Unless these fall contrary to the Christian Faith. Then we lose our tolerance, our drive for a free society, our humanitarian efforts to religious persecution and hatred. This country is not a country of true freedom, it is a country of freedoms based on the interpretation of an unstable religious system.
