Interesting. A Christian group got together to discuss how they can help those who choose the homosexual lifestyle and protesters are out there against them. Why don't the protesters want to help those who live the gay lifestyle? If the protesters don't want to help, then what does it say about them when they protest against those who do want to, and have helped those living the gay lifestyle?

 

If it was possible to choose "the gay lifestyle", and someone made that choice, what business is it of yours to step in and "help"? When they "choose" to be straight, they won't need anyone's help. Till then, butt the freak out.

Methinks the sec doth protest too much.

 

please provide the test that confirms that one is "born homosexual". If that really were the case, then there would be no "former" homosexuals speaking at the conference.

thanks

 

You can't choose to be gay so the entire premise of your argument is worthless drivel.

 

If the gay birth defect is real then homosexuals have nothing to worry about since the Christians cannot alter the genetic code.

But no one really knows what causes homosexuals to be what they are

 

My mother-in-law is schizo and paranoid, she's called the police many times to get them to stop DHS from spying on her, on that point she's ripped out the smoke detectors and thermostats because she thought that's how she was being spied on. In her mind she's perfectly normal. Would it be an injustice to try to get her help?

 

interesting despite there being zero facts to support your belief. Are you saying that a male does not CHOOSE where they insert their sexual organ?

Also, the deflection is noted. Here is a group wishing to help troubled and disturbed folks, with speakers who used to live the gay lifestyle discussing how one can leave the lifestyle.

 

I've mentioned before that I have a gay sister and cousin, what I just learned over the weekend is the brother of my cousin is also gay. Not get this, the girl who used to babysit me is gay, a kid I grew up with who lived next door to me is gay, and there was another girl who lived close by who is also gay. All these people lived within the distance of a long par 3, and living on that par 3 were probably less than 150 people, maybe less than 100. I can't wrap my head around that many people being gay all growing up within a small area - there has to be some sort of social factor involved. Now the kid who lived next to me was no surprise, we all had that figured out by the time he was 15. My sister turned to women after a long relationship with a man ended badly. Don't know anything about the other people.

 

You cannot choose sexual orientation. If you can, then do me a favor and choose to be gay for a week. I've challenged you this in the past and am STILL waiting for you to take me up on it. You can't.

Help? Laughable. I find it really hilarious that you think these religious psychopaths are helping anyone.

There is no conversion. There is no therapy. There is no choice. Gays are born gay and there is not a ******n thing you or any other Nazarene worshipping Christian can do about it.

 

Women porn stars do it all the time.

 

Your dick tells you what you fancy......

 

Disagree. They're being paid. There is a difference between a prostitute and a normal citizen loving whom they love.

 

"Former" homosexuals like "former" alcoholics? Once an alcoholic always an alcoholic.

 

Why do you keep clinging to this false notion that a person must be born gay in order for homosexuality to not be a choice?

When did you choose which hand or eye or yours was dominant? We know handedness and she dominance are not genetic, so you weren't born that way. So when did you choose?

 

There is nothing biologically wrong with being left or right handed, they both serve the functions they were intended to do.

 

And in what way exactly is homosexuality as harmful as schizophrenia?

Feel free to link to a current copy of the DSM or a recent peer reviewed scientific study that shows homosexuality is a harmful mental disorder.

 

There's nothing biologically wrong with being gay either.

 

I STRONGLY disagree for reasons you've already heard before by plenty of people.

 

Yet, your disagreement is not based on science. It's based on religious bigotry.

 

There is no biological aspect to being gay any more than there is a biological component to having a happy or day personality and you know it.

 

So what do you call straights who "come out" 30 years later?

The facists in the LGBT community claim they were always gay and just couldn't come out.

So what do you call gay people who go straight?

 

If homosexuals choose to undergo the conversion therapy, what business is it of yours?
Butt the freak out.

 

Where have I ever claimed there is a gay gene?

Why does homosexuality have to be genetic for it to not be a choice?

When did you choose which of your eyes would be dominant or what handedness you are? Neither of those are genetic.

Studies also show homosexuals face a massive degree of harassment and discrimination. Non-homosexuals faced with massive harassment also suffer depression and other disorders at similar rates.

The problem isn't homosexuality. It's bigots being shitty people.

 

What???

I'm agnostic. And the science of human reproduction and how we're built to make it happen is not bigoted.

 

And not everyone reproduces. Why should reproduction have any bearing on anything?
