Now, doesn't that fly in the face of the liberals claiming homosexuals
are born that way??


Homosexual activists play it either way...depending on the situation/audience.
I remember hearing Randy Shilts (sp?), the gay journalist from San Francisco do this.

I remember hearing him in some interview using the (in my words) "it's genetic, you
can't punish us because we've known we're gay since before grade school" explanation.

A couple years later, he was on ABC NightLine commenting on the debate
over the "don't ask, don't tell" proposal for the US military.
At that point he trotted out the (in my words) "you can't punish military
personnel for being gay...lots of them are young and just figuring out their
sexual orientation" behavioural explanation of homosexuality.

IIRC, Shilts died soon after that appearance from AIDS/HIV.
I think he also wrote the book "And The Band Played On", a diatribe that
as much as blamed Ronald Reagan for AIDS/HIV...and got made into a cable (HBO?) movie.

I've got to hand it to the gay lobby.
They are better than trial lawyers (like John Edwards) at twisting reality and words.
Even without AIDS/HIV dementia.

Next step for homosexuals: Its genetic and a handicap to be gay ( like Downs syndrome )and they need special government programs to help them cope with their condition. AIDS treatment programs, counseling, support groups (read:dating service ), affirmative action considerations, ad nauseum.
Homosexuals can only survive in an advanced and prosperous society such as ours. Seems like inverse evolution. Instead of survival of the fittest its advancement of the weakest mutations. Left alone they would become extinct.
