There are two sides here. There is the issue on a personal level which you are talking about and the issue on a political level which I am talking about. On a personal level I can't condemn anyone, I just think the physiology and/or psychology of an individual has lead them in the wrong direction. It's a disorder. Some learn to live with it comfortably and others are tormented by it. The political side of the issue is that the medical community has refused to recognize it as a medical disorder and therefore condemned the entire homosexual lesbian population to live with it with no option for getting help. Then there is the militant aspect of the whole issue, with a highly vocal, powerful and well funded homosexual lobby trying it's best to change the world and how it thinks. PC Activism. There is a sort of logic to their thrust IMO. In medicine, if you can't cure the patient the next best thing is to help them live with it by making them as comfortable as possible. In that respect the lobby is trying to do that. If they can change the prejudices of the entire world, then they can be more comfortable with the disorder. The problem with that is, of course, is it right to engage in a militant campaign of thought control with the general population? I think not. But that is exactly what is happening.
