What the hell does that mean?
From my perspective, it looks like he's trying to repent of telling the truth.
Homosexuality is an inherently disordered condition. It is inherently a corruption. It is always a tendency, temptation or desire to do something which is always and by its nature WRONG.
Behaviors can be addictive but that does not translate into an “orientation.” For those who for whatever unfathomable reason get hooked on homosexuality, the term habit would be much more fitting than orientation. Orientation is a term used to excuse them. We get that they struggle with overcoming the habit. Biology clearly proves that they are physically oriented to be heterosexual. Desire is not orientation.
Mohler is squishy. He is intelligent but not overly wise.
