WRONG! The only thing I've ever said I support in this regard, is a peaceful, civil society, with equal rights for all.

Riiight. You champion these “equal rights” based upon a man’s sticking his penis in another man’s rectum and not based upon any relationship upon which humanity is based and that reflects our identity in nature. By your abominable standards, we have no reason at all not to grant rights based upon a man, a dog and a sheep all sticking their respective penises in each others anuses. Yours is the mental defect, Buddy.

Your own peverse monomania on the issue (Freudians, take note!) has colored your every perception.

It has colored nothing. I am focused upon the abominable philosophy that underlies your attempts to normalize an utter abomination.

So what? The [cocaine addiction] has no genetic component (unless someone scientifically establishes that some people are specifically more disposed to cocaine addiction then others are, because of their respective genetic makeup.)

You so so friggin’ blind it truly evokes pathos in me. Your query had to do with the cause of behavior. You really did imply hard determinism and I corrected the implication to show that genetic determinism may not be at issue here. It may be a cross-working of both genetic and environmental determinism.

Your statement that cocaine addiction has no genetic component applies also to homosexuality. Nevertheless it may be the case that there is such a component for both homosexuality and cocaine addiction. It may be that as a result of environmental influences we are all capable of becoming addicted to cocaine and to homosexual behavior, but by varying degrees due to genetics.
