Now, if anyone says that this psyco difference occurs before a child is born, then how can they turn around and defend abortion, saying a fetus is not a human being. Don't get me wrong, I know you are not an advocate for abortion, but many who say homos can't help themselves, are. I do not say that Faith can heal them, but I do say that they cannot presume to be Christians, when the Bible clearly says that homosexuality is an abomination to God. The only thing that I am adamant about, is that they are not "born" that way. Yes, something, sometimes early in life, turns them away from heterosexuality. I don't know what but, I don't think people should just throw up there hands and say, they can't help what they are, and accept their lifestyle as normal. It is not normal!! I have seen a few cases where a, severely, dominating mother has turned a young male away from all thoughts of women as sexual partners, in disgust. I have also seen young women who were abused by men, and were so revolted, that they turned to other females as love interests. Again, that is not normal. It may be understandable, but not normal. If people would just admit that homosexuality, is not normal, I would not be so outspoken. Another problem I have is, that even if a person chooses to be homosexual, and accepts the consequences of not being normal, I have no problem with them. It is the ones that choose to flaunt their disregard for heteros, and children, and parade down city streets half naked, fondling each other in public, and making lewd comments for all to hear. I also do not think that any splinter group, be it sexual, or racial, or ethnic, or whatever, should be given special protection under the law. Any crime that murders, or maims, is a hate crime, regardless of who it happens to, and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. ~;=;o --haqi
