<< Surely, at least for those who are bi-sexual, the homosexuality is a matter of choice. >> But, is being bi-sexual a choice? If someone is born with different combinations of male and female genetics (or biology if you prefer the term), they preform a homosexual act if the lie with man or woman. Unless, of course, you are only referring to their outward appearance only. Some are born with female breasts and male genitalia. There are many different combinations. They are called he-shes. There are many, many variances to he-shes. There are millions of variances. << All I am saying is that this is an argument against the liklihood that the problem is entirely genetic ... >> Well, there are sexual deviants who are gay or straight. A parent that rapes their child is a monster regardless of their genetic makeup. It has been said that up to 25% of all females have been molested by a family member, and up to 20% all males. It seems like there are more straight perverts and monsters out there then there are gays or he-shes.

Dear Little Joe, >>>>"Religious persecution and the spewing of hatred towards others, because they are born different from the "norm", is evil and disgusting." Based on the fact that religions teach a belief system that is really a code of conduct. I will apply the above statement. Thou shalt not steal. Many of the major religions are perpetrating hateful acts on bank robbers by not objecting to putting them in prison. These bank robbers were born different from the "norm", and putting them in jail is evil and disgusting." No person would chose to rob a bank. These poor folks were born with the bank robber gene or some predisposition to robbing banks. Some principles in the religious beliefs of our founding fathers. Thou Shall not steal. Thou Shall not murder, even the innocent unborn child. Thou Shall not bear false witness. mr. bill definitely missed that gene. The democrat religion of Rev. mr. bill and jesse and al. Thou Shall not hold anyone responsible for any choice. The genes made them do it. The predisposition made them do it. The phase of the moon made them do it. The tooth fairy made them do it. tom watson toswmee
