PLS seek help for your mental aberations!

I, like the vast majority of humans in all the world and throughout all of human history, am repulsed by the notion of a man’s sticking his penis into another man’s anus. You actually defend such revolting behavior. You, and not me, are in possession of “mental aberrations.”

Sick Puppy, Johannes, you are a very sick puppy!

But, unlike you, I am a puppy who quite correctly knows that a man’s sticking his penis into the rectum of another man is utterly revolting and undeserving of recognition by any civilized human society.

So answer this --- behaviors clearly do NOT alter our genetic makeup (that is the discredited Lamarkian concept)... so where do persistent and reoccuring human behaviors come from?

Some of us may have genetically influenced predispositions toward certain behaviors "triggerable" by external experience. Cocaine addiction is essentially a chemical alteration of the body that takes place in response to a certain behavior. This alteration likely never would have taken place had the environmental event that triggered it never occurred.

Here you are getting very slippery. You ostensably disagree with what I said... then you close by agreeing with exactly what I have maintained

Please. I did no such thing. As evidenced by your penultimate statement here, you are simply too shallow of a thinker regarding your convictions.
