Of course not. These folks wish to believe a lie and so believing a lie is what they will do - no matter what. They must protect the homosexual sacred cow - no matter what. But having now raised 6 boys who clearly see themselves as men (and after having seen several families of homosexuals), I am now convinced that homosexuals are essentially created by bad parenting. I think it is quite likely far less genetic than most are willing to admit. The natural bond of mother and their children is well-known. Apparently of much less significance to us is the bond between fathers and their children. That bond is nevertheless profound. We harm children by minimizing it. That is what has happened in America and I am convinced it is at the root of why homosexuals exist. When it comes to emotional health, children really need Dad every bit as much as they need Mom. I think were we to climb into the skins of the vast majority of homosexuals, we would find a severe corruption of character due to the lack of emotional connection to their fathers. Women have a physically apparent connection to their children that we men do not have. To help establish my own connection in my mind and in the minds of my wife and children, my children are given directly to me from the moment they exit the womb. I am the very first person on earth that they see. We do this because I want to be able to tell my children in honesty that I was the first human they saw. I literally tell the infant, just seconds with us in the world "I am the first human you've seen. I am your father." I tell it to them constantly. I say it to my teens and even to my adult son (who is adopted). I will say it until the day I die. When after nursing they cannot sleep, I am the one who in those early months rocks them, walks for hours on end around the house in the wee hours of the morning to comfort them as my wife sleeps. I have done it to each of my children. I do it now for my newly born twins, sometimes holding both. They learn my smell, hear my voice and learn than when that smell and voice are present, love, comfort and truth are also present. Discipline and self-respect begin right here in the life of a child - and I am convinced it is missing in the lives of homosexuals and in many other wayward children.
