Nope, just a dupe of the political agenda of the APA. If the theory of androgens and testosterone caused homosexuality during gestation as they do for Syndromes of Abnormal Sex Differentiation disorders you’d see a higher prevalence of homosexuality, higher than the norm of 2%, in their population.

Why is it important to you that homosexuality NOT be a birth defect?

Geesh, I thought I'd seen some sanctimonious blowhards here on FR, but you take the cake. When I visualize what you wrote to me, I'm seeing a Saturday Night Live skit.

You think I'm incorrect, huh? We'll see what the court says. I have no doubt I've called this one correctly.

In answering my points, you've given us nothing but specious and disingenuous sophistry, sprinkled with holier-than-thou, God's-on-my-side righteousness. That may thoroughly convince you that you're right, but it doesn't go very far with the courts.

I stand by everything I said. This Bennett guy is a publicity hound riding O'Reilly's fame for his own profit, he violated copyright law, and his lawyers are incompetent or lying. And since you made sure we all know that you know him personally (twice in fact), you can tell him I said so.

Because a falsehood of science has been perpetrated on society. Because the consequences of normalizing a pathology are expanding uncontrollably and exponentially.

Why is it important to you that homosexuality BE a birth defect? Please leave out the drivel of special civil rights for chosen behavior.

This sort of suit has never flown in favor of the plaintiffs anyways

I would like to give you the opportunity to cite some examples to show us that this isn't merely conjecture on your part before I utterly destroy this assertion of yours with the U.S.C. copyright law and examples of copyright cases very similar to this that have consistently been ruled in favor of the plantiff.

It isn't important to me if the sun goes around the earth or the earth goes around the sun. But it was once important to the Roman Catholic church.

It isn't important to me whether homosexuality is a birth defect or a choice or the result of inadequate socialization or brainwashing by gay recruiters or all of the above, but it seems to be important to people who feel they have a lock on conservatitism.

I have no agenda, so I am free to look at all the possibilities and accept whatever reality is revealed as time marches on and today's agendas fade leaving the facts able to prevail.

From one blowhard to another, for once I’m in agreement with you. But it does seem unfair that a talk show host, who Owns the microphone and doesn’t give enough time to respond to untruths, that person has no recourse under the law.

I’ts a shame.

Who cares. I never mentioned religion, why bring it up?

Make up your own definition then.

What ‘facts’ are those?

That is what scientists are in the process of trying to discover now. And yes, scientists are just as prone to error due to prejudicial thinking or source of funding as anyone. But over time, the weight of evidence tends to indicate which theories are most likely to be correct.

Is this person stark raving mad or what????? I gues when a person wears s**t covered glasses, everything they see looks like s**t. Sorry for the crudity but this statement is so sick, so revolting, and such a lie that I got mad!!! I guess it just says something about his friends... (I figured out italics, now I have to learn paragraphs...)

Definition from Webster.

Main Entry: sod·omy

Pronunciation: 'sä-d&-mE

Etymology: Middle English, from Old French sodomie,

Date: 13th century

1 : copulation with a member of the same sex or with an animal

2 : noncoital and especially anal or oral copulation with a member of the opposite sex

You are naive to think that the latter option in definition number two is not commonplace in all marriages...

When O'Reilly first came on Fox, I enjoyed him, but the tone and tenor of his show declined with every new million he made. Now I shut him off quickly if I flip on his show. He is RAVING, chewing up the scenery and his interviews make no sense. There is something simply wrong with him--his outbursts and anger are very personal, unpleasant and--ultimately, boring.
