I repeat, your rights are not being violated and therefore it is none of your business.

I disagree. As I see it, just because someones rights aren't violated doesn't mean it's nobody else's business.

First, from where do our rights come from? I believe our rights come from our Creator and as John O said: [Our Creators] opinion is that homosexual behavior is immoral.. Sure, homosexual activists try to twist what the Bible says but in doing so they twist Scripture just as the cults do.

Second, homosexual behavior results in severe health hazards that can affect all of us.

Third, homosexuals, being around 2% (including bisexuals) of the population, account for a third of child molestations. Now that's some of everybody's business. Sources: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Fourth, there is absolutely no evidence homosexuality is genetic. In fact the major factor in determining homosexuality is environment. The fact that thousands have left the homosexual lifestyle supports the environmental factor.

Fifth, homosexuals can change.

So why do we even tolerate homosexualty, let alone accept it? Homosexuals should be encouraged to leave the lifestyle, not continue the destructive lifestyle that it is. And those who truly care for homosexuals will do just that.

It should be clarified that we are talking about the use of force in making it your business. I think you can and should do everything you want to change minds and hearts about sinful behavior, SHORT of force and violence.

believe our rights come from our Creator

So do I.

and as John O said: [Our Creators] opinion is that homosexual behavior is immoral..

I agree with that as well.

Sure, homosexual activists try to twist what the Bible says but in doing so they twist Scripture just as the cults do.

I agree, I just wonder why you feel compelled to tell me this.

Second, homosexual behavior results in severe health hazards that can affect all of us.

So does obesity and other forms of hetrosexual contact. Your proposal on those?

Third, homosexuals, being around 2% (including bisexuals) of the population, account for a third of child molestations.

I'm not sure what that has to do with anything in this conversation. Child molestations violate rights, that's why they are subject to legitimate government force.

Fourth, there is absolutely no evidence homosexuality is genetic.

Off topic and irrelevant to this conversation. I happen to agree, but why are you telling me about it?

Fifth, homosexuals can change.

I think perhaps some can, but again, it's off topic to this conversation.

So why do we even tolerate homosexualty, let alone accept it?

Tolerate? Like not kill them? Like not arrest them?

Homosexuals should be encouraged to leave the lifestyle, not continue the destructive lifestyle that it is.

I agree, what have you done about it lately? (Encourage doesn't mean at the point of a gun.)

And those who truly care for homosexuals will do just that.

I agree. Get going if you haven't already.
