[QUOTE]Originally posted by Calabooz: [QB] [QUOTE]It is a natural process for a man to grow with the desire to like another man in a sexual way ... but this desire grows being a learned behavior(fantasies that are conjured up in the mind). It is like... growing with the desire to like to eat sugar or to exercise, etc... However, no man comes out the womb sexually activated to want to have sex with another male. THAT IS ABSURD PSEUDOSCIENCE TALK.[/QUOTE]Well of course people aren't literally born to be gay. However, once you know your sexual preference, then you don't change. I mean, I know I am not attracted to the same gender, and that's not going to change. Same for homosexuals, if they [b]know[/b] who they are attracted to, then that won't change. [QUOTE]Homosexuality is a life style. Charlie Sheen lives in a mansion with his two girl friends. It is his life style. He chooses to live his life that way and he can do so on his own accord. It is his freewill and he has right to do as he pleases so long as he is not harming others freewill.[/QUOTE]There is a huge flaw with your comparison: Charlie Sheen can stop whenever the heck he wants! It's not as if gay people can stop being gay. Straight people know they're straight, and gay people know they're gay. You can't change your sexual preference. [QUOTE]There is a movement which marches along side the homosexual during the gay parade. This movement promotes the notion that a grown man should have the freedom to have sex with younger boy(I know a lot of people who would read this would find this repulsive... but remember that how homosexuality was seen decades ago). Who knows maybe the next generation will programmed to be tolerable to that as well. Where will the line be drawn? Before you know it a father with the desire to have sex with his child will speak up. Why should he not be able to speak? Isn't that a lifestyle he desires to live by? These question have and will continue to baffle the secular world.[/QUOTE]LOL! No way. There is a HUGE difference between two adult of the same gender who are attracted to each other and grown men with children. I honestly don't think an explanation is needed for why that is wrong, and will most likely never be tolerated in this modern society. Incest has been proven to result in genetically negative effects. Terrible, terrible comparisons. [QUOTE]There is nothing wrong with criticizing someone who publicly displays indecency. As Homo sapiens we have an intellect. That intellect is what separates us from every other living thing on this Earth. If we use that intellect we will come to realize that their is something called decency. Decency is embedded in our blood which is inherited from one generation to the next. It similar to the colostrum that carries the maternal immunity from the maternal lineage of the mother. Decency flows in every man and women. If something is indecent we can sense it and we have the right to stand up against it.[/QUOTE]I had no idea decency was a genetically inherited trait LOL! Are you suggesting homosexuality is "indecent"? [QUOTE]Everyone has the right to live according to their free will, but if what you do with your freewill will harms someone else freewill. Then that is where the line should be drawn.[/QUOTE]Well, it is not as if homosexuals harm someones free will. Osirion... [QUOTE]Never said you should discriminate against anyone because of a mental disease they have. I don't think obese people should be discriminated against either. However, it is not NORMAL even if the person was born that way.[/QUOTE]OK, first of all, read what the American Psychiatric Association has to say before making such stupid claims of a mental illness LMAO!: [QUOTE]Psychiatric Treatment and Sexual Orientation POSITION STATEMENT Approved by the Board of Trustees, December 1998 Approved by the Assembly, November 1998 "Policy documents are approved by the APA Assembly and Board of Trustees… These are …position statements that define APA official policy on specific subjects…" -- APA Operations Manual. An initial version of this position statement was proposed in September 1998 by the Committee on Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual Issues of the Council on National Affairs. It was revised and approved by the APA Assembly in November 1998. The revised version was approved by the Board of Trustees in December 1998. The Board of Trustees of the American Psychiatric Association (APA) [b]removed homosexuality from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders[/b] (DSM) in 1973 after reviewing evidence [b]that it was not a mental disorder.[/b] In 1987 ego-dystonic homosexuality was not included in the revised third edition of DSM (DSM-II-R) after a similar review. APA does not currently have a formal position statement on treatments that attempt to change a person’s sexual orientation, also known as “reparative therapy” or “conversion therapy.” In 1997 APA produced a fact sheet on homosexual and bisexual issues, which states that [b]“there is no published scientific evidence supporting the efficacy of “reparative therapy” as a treatment to change one’s sexual orientation.”[/b] The potential [b]risks of “reparative therapy” are great and include depression, anxiety, and self-destructive behavior,[/b] since therapist alignment with societal prejudices against homosexuality may reinforce self-hatred already experienced by the patient. Many patients who have undergone “reparative therapy” relate that they were inaccurately told that homosexuals are lonely, unhappy individuals who never achieve acceptance or satisfaction. The possibility that the person might achieve happiness and satisfying interpersonal relationships as a gay man or lesbian are not presented, nor are alternative approaches to dealing with the effects of societal stigmatization discussed. APA recognizes that in the course of ongoing psychiatric treatment, there may be appropriate clinical indications for attempting to change sexual behaviors. Several major professional organizations, including the American Psychological Association, the National Association of Social Workers, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, have made statements against “reparative therapy” because of concerns for the harm caused to patients. The American Psychiatric Association has already taken clear stands against discrimination, prejudice, and unethical treatment on a variety of issues, including discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation. Therefore, [b]APA opposes any psychiatric treatment, such as “reparative” or “conversion” therapy, that is based on the assumption that homosexuality per se is a mental disorder or is based on the a priori assumption that the patient should change his or her homosexual orientation.[/b][/QUOTE]From the APA site: http://www.psych.org/Departments/EDU/Library/APAOfficialDocumentsandRelated/PositionStatements/199820.aspx [QUOTE]There are plenty of natural deformities that are not normal. A child born with autism is not NORMAL but requires special attention and training.[/QUOTE]There is a huge difference between sexual preference and a disorder that effects a childs development of social and communication skills. [QUOTE]he same with a child born with homosexuality (if that is ever proven to be the case). It should be considered a treatable condition but something a person that has the ailment would chose to remove. Many obese people are happy being that way and chose to do nothing about it. The same is true for homosexual people.[/QUOTE]Read my above citation, not only are there negative effects to so-called "treatment" in homosexuals, but there is no evidence that it actually works.
