The above is a cheap, manipulative ploy, Keenduck. <_< SERIOUS. Our current Secretary of State and former joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Colin Powell--who himself is of course African-American--addressed your above-quoted charges waaay back in 1993, during the embarrassing "Gays in De Military" fiasco created by Slick Willie just a few days after the aforementioned SlickMeister took the Presidential Oath of Office.
As Colin Powell pointed out--and as ODDLY, the vast majority of people in my own age group (I am 39) understand without being told, skin color is an utterly benign characteristic. It involves no conscious choice whatsover. Conversely, homosexual behavior--as with ALL forms of sexual behavior--requires innumerable moment-by-moment choices to be made by the participant(s), each and every time it is engaged in.
Again, it is TRUE apples-and-oranges speciousness to equate the mere fact of being a human being with dark-colored skin to all of the conscious acts and choices involved in sexual behavior. The whole gay-gene, people-are-born-gay argument has been thoroughly discredited by hard science time and time again. Claims by homosexual lobbyists about "gay" (why can't they just say homosexual??? hmmmm?) genes and whatnot are all hogwash, regardless of what Tom Brokaw or Peter Jennings may have once read to you off a TelePrompTer.
Common sense tells us that if human beings had no control over their sexual behaviors, actions, choices, attitudes, and whatnot, then not even rape or pedophilia could be justifiably outlawed. You cannot rightly punish people for doing that which they MUST do. Would you punish a man for eating? Noooooo. BUT!! But... you would punish that same man for stealing food to eat, would you not?? Or at least human civilizations do...
I want a return to sanity in regards to homosexual behavior. "Back in the closet", if you will. I'm sick of all teh parades and propaganda concerning homosexual behavioe. The US Centers For Disease Control, 1999 statistics, shows that the average life span of an American male who indulges in homosexual behavior with even semi-regular frequency hovers at between 47 and 48 years of age. Women who engage in similiar behavioral practices fare little better; I believe they live "clear" until age 52 or therabouts. <_<
Funny how our lying, hypocritical political elites will sue American tobaccos companies for BILLIONS of dollars, due to the loss of an average of seven years of life for a typical cigarette smoker. Yet a form of behavior which kills both men and women fully TWENTY FIVE years earlier than normal, is at the same time being promoted and defended in government skewls and government policy.
This is STUPID. It infuriates me. People are not born homosexual. They do not have to act upon 'feelings' they interpret as being "gay." I, for instance, sometimes spot a lovely young woman whom (chill Tiffy if you ever see this, we've talked about this before) causes in me feelings of a decidely sexual nature. Sexual attractiom, physical attraction, blah blah blah teh Bible calls it lust and that's all it is, folks. Sin. I maye be saved but I still have a sin nature, same as anyone else...
Now: I could EASILY--using the exact same word-for-word logic continually employed by both homosexual activists and their apologists--insist that I have NO CHOICE. I'm BORN wildly attracted to gorgeous fourteen-year-old women. Darn. Poo poor poor me, poor poor pitiful me. I cain't HEP it--I'se born dis way!!! :P Sorry Tiffy honey, my beloved wife of nearly eight years now, I must now (or at least soon, soon as we two consenting adults can agree uponm a time and a place) go engage in sexual intercourse with that sexy lil honey over dere, because I is wildly overcome by feelings which I of course didn't choose because who in their right mind would choose to have such feelings??? <_<
I could go on and on, but anyone not yet (or still) totally brainwashed by that good ol' Publik Skewl Mentality, understands what I am getting at.
You cannot be born to only engage in homosexual acts any more than you can be born to only engage in sex acts with gorgeous teenagers who look like Britney Spears once did before Britney's poor lifestyle choices started
to catch up to her.
EVERYONE feels lust (whoops!! too controversial, dat!!) err I mean physical attraction for other people in their lives. Whether and how you CHOOSE to respond to those feelings is totally up to you. The Bible warns that people who refuse to accept in their minds that actions God considers evil, ARE in fact evil, will as a consequence be allowed to surrender their wills over to desiring those actions in a POWERFUL fashion. And yeah, I know plenty of people hate and reject the Bible, but I always--without exception!!!--see what it says about people's attitudes and behaviors as matching up bang-on, 100%,with real-world verifiable stuff. Freud's ramblings by comparison fail the reality test time and time again, which is no biggee really cuz ol Siggy is long dead while God is eternal so no great loss.
Anyway, point being: skin color and sexual behavior are easily as far apart from each other in real life as the east is from the west, soo... :blink:
