Couple things. You state:

"See, I think you are born with a predispostion to being gay."

That is your opinion. Opinions are fragile things, subject to change if the person holding them is willing to have an open mind and read and learn. Here's an article with a lot of info on the thread about the root causes of homoesxuality. Keep in mind that if homosexuality were inborn, there would be no - zero - former homosexuals. Turns out there are tens of thousands of former homosexuals. The mainstream media does not want their stories to be told.

Root Causes, Homosexual Consequences

Here is another link to a vast number of organized and categorized articles about homosexuality, including many on the causes. If you want to hold opinions about the topic, you'd do well to read up. I have been studying the issue for more than 15 years, and it's clear as a bell that it is not genetic, not inborn, and that people can change.

Homosexual Agenda: Categorical Index of Links (Revision 1.1)

Thirdly, you made this utterly ridiculus statement:

"Do you really want to purge the party of homosexuals? They are not welcome?"

Are you trying to pick a fight, or what? I never thought or said that. What I am opposed to is the homosexual agenda, especially forcing pro-homosexual legislation via the courts, and the indoctrination of children in schools.
The more conservative homosexuals the likes of Tammy Bruce, the better, and the more they vote Republican, the better.

What a pompous ass you are, talking down like that.

Your logic can't hold enough water to wet a stamp.

"Here's an article...the root causes of homoesxuality...."

There is a whole lot of professing and expressing about the "formers," but there is no empirical data I've come across, no respectable, reliably scientific examination.

Have men who've practiced homosexuality renounced the life, and never gone back? Yes, of course. Maybe they were never all that gay to begin with, but the culture steered them wrong when they were most vulnerable. And maybe, in some cases, there's more going on--maybe a deep, deep guilt, or shame, so they grab at the "conversion" "back to" heterosexuality like a drowning man grabbing a life preserver. (And as long as they cling tightly to it, they won't go back.)

Has it occurred to you that the zeal expressed by the "formers" very much mirrors the zeal of the those unfortunates we come across who've very suddenly and profoundly found Jesus--as if they were the first ones ever to find Him? There are many aspects about these "changed" homosexuals that parallels the fervor of the newly converted. This is a psychological/moral aspect that deserves serious examination.

Don't PRONOUNCE what is anecdotal to be fact.
