On Ducks And Homosexuality
Christian news in maine.com ^ | 29 January, 2005 | Linda Kimball

In a contentious debate between myself and some radical 'gays' who support the teaching of the 'gay' lifestyle to children, one of them asked me if and when I had 'chosen' to be heterosexual. "Was it at age 3, 6, 13, 19?" he asked, "Or did you (a female) just 'naturally' gravitate towards boys or men without any outside pressure or force?" This question, laden with implied meaning, is a favorite tactical 'trap' set by 'gays' for unsuspecting and unprepared heterosexuals. It plays upon and manipulates our consciences so as to cause us to feel guilty; it lures us into setting aside logic and reason and calls upon us to be led by emotion; it purposefully lends itself to creating confusion. Its' underlying premise is that 'gay' behavior is the result of 'orientation', a meaningless, nonsensical term meant to fool us into believing in the existence of a hitherto unheard of third gender or race. Thus we are coaxed into concluding that 'gayness' and heterosexuality must be the same and therefore 'gayness' is deserving of 'inclusion, sensitivity, and rights.' This is nothing but a cleverly crafted fable, but to dissent against it is to be guilty of hate, 'homophobia,' bigotry, and racism.

My response, just below, seemingly disarmed them and after calling me a few obligatory names, they quit the debate.

"There was no 'choice'........there was never any question........my gravitation towards the opposite sex occured as naturally as breathing air. Now for yourself, 'something' occured that interfered with your natural 'gravitational' process towards the opposite sex and manhood that, in effect, stunted it in much the same way as a baby duck can have its natural progression towards becoming a mature duck interfered ...

Since "pato" is the Spanish word for "duck" (the bird, not the verb), and since "pato" is also a slang term for a male homosexual, the article's name in Spanish, "Sobre los patos y la homosexualidad," would sound rather redundant.

For those Freepers not in on the joke, "pato" (duck, in Spanish) is a word used to refer to a gay man.

HA!HA!..Thanks, for those of us, who don't know Spanish/Mexican. :))

They quit the debate because they realized they were dealing with a moron.

Believe me, no one was "disarmed" by the author's comparing homosexuality to a duckling "imprinting" on a human, rendering it forever "stunted" in its growth to mature duckhood.

Of course, this could be intended as satire on imbecile arguments, in which case forgive me for not getting the humor right away.

During research at a local university library I came upon an interesting story.
During WW11 doctors examined a rather "strange" soldier who was NOT homosexual. He had been born so far back in the hills that he had never seen a woman. His mother died when he was born. He only lived around MEN yet was not homo.
When, after he was drafted, he saw women he was not affected in any way, yet he WAS turned on when he saw a cow.

No more needs to be said yet this is a true story. I just wish I remembered what book it was in.

Who among us hasn't at some point in our lives had the desire to kill? Yet if that desire alone - and not our behavior - defined us as killers, our jails would be awfully crowded.

"They quit the debate because they realized they were dealing with a moron."

Hmm, Just as the author described. You respond to the argument with insults, then retreat.

It is common sense that people who are not attracted to members of the opposite sex but are attracted to the same sex have a serious disorder (even if they don't recognize it.) They shouldn't be discriminated against but neither should it be celebrated or considered normal.

The question of HOW is not the most important. What matters is that the behavior is innately dysfunctional and destructive.

Knowing HOW it happens is useful, not for defending it, but for helping people to avoid it and helping those who wish to get rid of it.

The people you are debating only want to speculate about how the behavior begins so they can justify it morally. (This is, by definition, self-righteousness.)

The more important question is HOW TO STOP this behavior. They only want to debate the cause, but are not interested in a cure.

A gay man once asked me the same question, whether I thought homosexuality was "innate".

I told him I thought homosexuality was aberrant behavior. Stopped him cold.

It has crossed my mind that the increase in homosexual men and lesbian women has been greater since the advent of easy divorce and the children being almost invariably awarded to the mother. After the exit of the father, there is no longer a strong masculine presence in the family which acts as a role model for the boy children and proposes a feminine attribute to the girl children. To put it more simply, "As the twig is bent, so is the tree inclined."

As a student of history, it has occurred to me that there has never been a civilizaton that accepted homosexuality as normal that did not fail shortly thereafter. Athens did and so did Rome. This may be a coincidence and is not to say that other factors were not predominant, but still....."Roman matrons used to say to their sons: 'Come back with your shield, or on it.' Later on,this custom declined. So did Rome." (R.A. Heinlein)

Unless you were there, then your words are nothing but resentment-laced hot air. And if you're unable to speak the truth, then don't speculate. Had you been among the cadre of activist 'gays' in that thread, then believe me......you were disarmed.
