People ARE born gay.
All sin comes from The Fall. We are born wicked because of our sin nature, although the demons we wrestle with are sometimes different. The idea that man is born good, and our sinful nature is a product of society is a fundamentally Marxist concept.
Not necessarily. Environment can warp a person. So can experiences. Most homosexuals admit to having been molested and/or having a domineering Mother.
I wonder what years of exposure to sexually transmitted diseases can do to the brain?
“Behaviors are learned.”
Behaviors yes, sins no. We are born wicked and the evil is within us because of our fallen nature.
That I will agree with.
No, that's false. If nothing else, can't we FReepers banish the term "gay" from our vocabulary when we mean homosexuality? The powerful and thuggish sodomite lobby has destroyed so much...please don't let them corrupt our language.
Arizona SB 1062 was called the "anti-gay" bill by many. I saw absolutely nothing in that bill that wanted to restrict the God-given right to be happy and joyous. Instead, it was a bill in favor of liberty and freedom. It's shameful that Jan Brewer succumbed to the forces of the vile. filthy homosexualists as they push their anti-God agenda.
Yes you´re correct in your assumption especially regarding pedophilia. I think some people are hard wired that way. It’s sick to have those thoughts evil to act on them. Thats why the recidivism rate is so high with child molesters. In most csses I think they need to be locked up untill there too old to act on it.

I have seen no credible, double blind, peer reviewed study to show that homosexuals arise from their environment. I know that this sin is as old as the mankind. This matches my belief that their sin is inborn, at most the environment determines if they act out on their sin (being a homosexual at heart and not in practice is still a sin in my book).
Then again, we are all sinners at heart.
It’s always a blast to watch the feeding frenzy.
Well, bye.
I am with you on misuse of the word “gay”. I used to get upset about people using it like that, but looks like the media brainwashing had an effect on me too. That said, sorry to tell you but most people these days don’t even know it once meant happy. If you say “I met a gay man today” anyone under 70 will assume you mean a homosexual.
Behaviors are learned. They are not the same as having blue eyes or brown hair. Sexual deviancy is a learned mental illness. Most homosexuals admit to having been molested as a child. There was also a study done on twins that refutes your belief. If it was “hard wired” both twins would be homosexual. They were not.
Homosexuals and their activity pose no risk to the life and health of people who live a moral life and who do not engage in promiscuous conduct.

Perhaps you forgot about viruses. Science, you know.
Dan Savage infects enemies by licking doorknobs, staplers, keyboards, or anything else he can put his mouth on that he thinks Christians will touch. Though I don’t think he’s got HIV... yet.

Then there are homosexual medical professionals who might really be infected with HIV that decide you’re a hater and need to be removed from society, or call attention to the plight of AIDS victims everywhere by infecting you.
And I don’t know if you watch any of the chef competitions on TV (my wife loves that crap), but a disproportionate number are homosexual, and most of those come from established restaurants as line cooks or sous chefs. Think about unsanitary homosexual acts and then watch the chefs handle the food with their fingers and taste the food they’re serving to customers. I’ve pretty much stopped going to restaurants - can’t afford them, and shudder to think how they toss salads.
And to our dearest The Old Lady (who's young at heart IMHO and quite a pistol...with surefire aim), another apologist for atheism burns on the embers! Yes, those promoting or tolerating sodomy are advancing an anti-God agenda.
The twin study refutes that.
Which twin study? I am honestly curious.
I'm on old fuddy-duddy (yes, now well over 70) and since Christmas is but two months in the past, I recall the time when Deck the Halls didn't invoke gales of laughter with the lines, "Don we now out gay apparel". And sometimes for shock value here on Free Republic, I mention that I was in a gay marriage for 40+ years until my lovely wife passed away.
Twin studies— the strongest evidence
Over the last decade, studies of twins have provided some of the strongest numerical evidence that “Our genes do not make us do it”— which makes this chapter probably the most important in the book. Results from twin studies are quantitative, so they greatly focus and sharpen the results of many other studies we’ve mentioned so far.
In a nutshell, if you take pairs of identical twins in which one twin is homosexual, the identical co-twin (a monozygotic (MZ) twin) is usually not homo sexual. That means, giv en that identical twins are always genetically identical, homosexuality cannot be genetically dictated. No-one is born gay. The predominant things that create homosexuality in one identical twin and not in the other have to be post-birth factors. Hold on to this simple thought as you navigate the complex world of twin studies in the pages of this chapter
