Do you have to be anti-gay in order to be conservative?

No, but conservatives do believe that people are ultimately responsible for their behavior. Why does O'Reilly and gay activists angerly insist that it is impossible for someone to stop behaving gay? It really boils their blood pressure at any suggestion that being in the gay lifestyle is anything but genetic.

And I think that O'Reilly would agree 100% with your first sentence. Individuals should be responsible for their own behavior. This means that if somebody is born gay (genetic argument) or is raised and developed to be gay (societal influences) than they should be left alone with their decision and accountable for their own actions. Leave them alone. (And also, they should leave straight people alone about their sexuality).

Are you a Christian or a conservative, or try to be both? I find that the greatest roadblock in my efforts to behave Christian is anger. I'm not sure where it comes from. Perhaps it is anger that everyone does not agree with me and thus they make the world a worse place, IMO. My anger is due to arrogance.

Where does your anger come from?

I heard on the news that alot of college girls are now 'experimenting' with same sex sex. Can't say that's genetic.

By O'Reilly's angry response at the supposition, you would think he was gay.?
