"Do you ever introduce your boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse to people?"

Yes, I do. And if a gay person wants to introduce their significant other, there's no issue. The issue is when they continue to point to their homosexuality and demand we all 'celebrate' it with them.

"I have never met anyone who didn't know if they were straight or gay."

So you never heard about the teens who are 'confused' about their sexuality? Sure seems to be an issue I've heard talked about in the schools. Need those special counselors to 'guide' the kids. If what you say is true, then there's no need for such guidance and the schools can save an awful lot of money.

"Then maybe we should stop categorizing people."

Good idea. It would help if certaing 'categories' (e.g. gays) quit demanding everyone 'celebrate' their 'category'.

You and I could bicker forever. We have fundamental differences over the nature of human liberty. Unless you have something paradigm shifting to add, let's end this.

"I knew several people in high school who said they were 'confused' about their sexuality. They both later turned out to be gay."

No, they were recruited - told that they weren't 'confused' but gay - they just needed to come out of the closet. Gee, being gay is so keen and all.

"I'm not following you here: it's only a sin if people demand others 'accept' their behavior?"

:::sigh:::

Your complaint was that people seem to focus on homosexuality over other sins.

The focus is there because the homosexuals KEEP it there.

Do you understand now?

Notice the cities...Albany, NY, Detroit, Madison. When I lived in Albany, NY I was surprised by the extremely large Homosexual community. And this was over 20 years ago!!! I was told that wherever you find a large amoung of lawyers, you'll find a huge homosexual community. I don't know if it's true, but I thought it was interesting.

It's 'bickering' to claim that what you said was a good idea?

Interesting definition of 'bickering' you have there.

Because homosexuality is a chosen behavior and not comparable to faith or innate characteristic. Kinda simple ain’t it?

Faith is NOT and innate characteristic. It is learned and freely chosen behavior. And not a very rational one at that. I succussfully left the Christian lifestyle years ago and I haven't looked back. If I can do it, you can too.

Last time I checked religion was constitutionally protected. Sexual preference is not.

The vast majority of teenagers -- straight and gay -- aren't at all confused. They know what they want 100 percent. Wrongo.

My fraternity brother, Randy, was a raging heterosexual. A horn dog. We had gay brothers in our frat, and Randy, while cordial towards them, was never active with them socially (or in any other way).

He now lives in Seatle with his significant other, Steve.

Seems that Randy, after living in Miami for 15 years, got caught up in the club scene, eventually the gay club scene, had a little crossover experimenting, swung both ways for a while, and finally decided to settle down with Steve. In discussions we have had Randy has explained that he "knew" he was straight in college and now he "knows" he's gay.

Jennifer and I were friends in my freshman year. I attempted to go out with her, but was told that she wasn't interested in guys. She had a relationship with her roommate, very open about it. She used to jump on my case when I would make a "homophobic" remark. Women's studies. Dabbled in Wicca. Democratic sliding into Green hard core lipstick lesbian. I got an e-mail from her a couple of months ago. She and her husband, Mark, have been married for 10 years now. They have two little boys, 3 and 6, and she is active in her church (Baptist!) and PTA. Seems she felt empty, found the Lord, and the rest just fell into place. She gets a kick out of talking to her old friends from her old life who just can't believe the change.

I could give you other examples, maybe not a dramatic, but I personally know at least half-a-dozen people that have crossed from one side to the other.
