I am like you, I don't know. But for the sake of argument, let's say that homosexuality is genetic, and if genetic, the genes that predispose one to be gay will soon, given modern science, be discovered. Hence, the heterosexual couple, aware that they are about to produce a homosexual would have the option to abort. The question, similar to that of Down's Syndrome children is, would you wish, given a choice, have a homosexual offspring?

Abortion, beware the unintended consequences!!!

Very well said Dr. Eckleburg, very well said. The fact that now a lot of school kids and young adults find lesser social taboos associated with deviant sexual behavior and experiment with it, shows that it is a learned, cultural behavior, nothing genetic about it.

I have read your stuff. I don't agree.

Then you shouldn't ask me to post it again.

And I have pointed out the research problems before.

You did no such thing.

You either don't remember or you are being dishonest.

As demonstrated in post 146, history tells us you don't remember things as they really happen.

Now I realize why you chose "bigsigh" as a screen name. Apparently it's because people have to repeat themselves so often with you, they first have to take a big sigh, and then repeat themselves all over again.

You need to go to school and learn about research methodology.

You need to learn to support your statements. Please tell us what is wrong with the research I've posted. You won't, but I have to ask it again and again because you never support your statements.

This is a lie as I said or you're just plain forgetful I guess you don't remember me explaining scientific methodology and referring you to a college course before either.

Let's assume your forgetful, now how about that class and you can screen your own bad research.

Geez, your profile seems worse than before. Afterb reading some of the first research you posted, I can't for the life of me think of any resaon to read the rest of it. You have no scientific standard and you'll post anything anti-homosexual. Why would I read that crap?

Sigh. And that's a big sigh.

Excellent! Tell me, specifically, what is wrong with what I've posted? Is there anything is this thread? Let's get specific!

I'M NOT READING YOUR RESEARCH AGAIN. 10th notice.

Is that the only comment of mine you didn't save? How convenient. The fact that you learned nothing from those early exchanges is not my fault nor is it my responsibility to provide remediation. You have built a hate-the-homo crusade here on a false foundation and as I said before its unamerican and intellectually dishonest.

You can't answer my comments about the "agenda." You can't deny the drive for liberty, pursuit of happiness and equal access. And worse, while your harmful, your also, repetituous and boring.

Now I'm homoed out with you and your followers. This is the time for you to say I am running away and tell others the truth after I leave. You cannot bribe, cajole, threaten or embarrass me back to this thread.

"I am of the opinion that many are born with an overabundance of the wrong genes / hormones and others choose the lifestyle. One group cannot be corrected while the 2nd is elective You my have a point insofar as I recall experiments on rats in University where normal sexually active hetrosexual male rats received estrogen hormone injections. In a short period of time, these estrogen injected male rats began to exhibit female sexual behaviour - that is the injected male rat would assume the female ready position to other male rats. That position is the back side up and exposed with tail up to another male rat.

No flames from me on this. I've met a few homosexuals throughout my life and those I knew well enough, I'd always ask why they're gay. Contrary to belief, straight people like me can get along with gay people.....well at least get by on some mutual respect anyway.

Some claim they were born that way, some said they tried dating the opposite sex but it felt more "normal" to date their own, others have said that it was just "easier" being gay and that for them it just worked.

So personally speaking, I don't think it's etched in stone one way or the other. Of course, I could be wrong.

Sigh, and a big one at that. Now you're back to posting red herrings.

I've asked you many times to support your statements and everytime you run away. Just a few minutes ago you apparently had something specific in mind, and when I asked for specifics you run away.

And to say that I lump all homosexuals together demonstrates you didn't read the very beginning of my profile, which states in part:

Are all homosexuals part of the homosexual agenda? Of course not, as many homosexuals just want to be left alone. Unfortunately, the radical homosexuals and their sympathizers insist on pushing their agenda in our collective faces and on our children...

I didn't think your credibility could get worse, but you just keep digging that hole...

...defending a person who won't defend his own remarks while he stays on the thread.

Why would I repeat xzins' intelligent rebuttal to your dreary and well-refuted points?

Female homosexuality seems to be a function of enduring early sexual abuse, male rejection and a lack of a strong, loving mother figure to create healthy patterning. These days add to that mix virulent leftist politics and rabid knucklehead feminism espoused by naive women who never read any history outside their Women's Studies classes.

Male homosexuality is almost entirely, if not totally, the result of early homosexual stimulation/abuse, either forced or coerced.

Ask your gay friends for their earliest sexual memories. It's eye-opening (assuming you want your eyes opened to the truth.)

Homosexuality is a true perversion of human nature. It's a denial of real attraction, a compulsion to sameness, seeking to love only itself, rather than the other. It is the endgame of Platonism and all that such error entails.

Homosexuality is rooted in mental and physical abuse which takes a long time and considerable effort to overcome. But it's well worth the effort in peace of mind, happiness and longevity.

FYI the article in 302 for your reply

FYI - try DU if you wish to debate the topic. FR is not the forum to debate the scientific, anectdotal, objective or subjective points that may support or further the homosexual agenda. The question is not one of which argument may be 'better' -the question is why do you continue to promote the homosexualization of society here on FR?

What Free Republic is all about:

Statement by the founder of Free Republic

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Free Republic is private property. It is not a government project, nor is it funded by government or taxpayer money. We are not a publicly owned entity nor are we an IRS tax-free non-profit organization. We pay all applicable taxes on our income. We are not connected to or funded by any political party, news agency, or any other entity. We sell no merchandise, product or service, and we offer no subscriptions or paid memberships. We accept no paid advertising or promotions. We are funded solely by donations (non tax deductible gifts) from our readers and participants.

We aggressively defend our God-given and first amendment guaranteed rights to free speech, free press, free religion, and freedom of association, as well as our constitutional right to control the use and content of our own personal private property. Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is not a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of life.

The articles you are attracted to like moth to flame are posted on FR with one general purpose in mind -to oppose the homosexual agenda...

There is a homosexual agenda ping list for this very purpose -do you understand -the articles are not posted to provide you a soapbox to glorify a disorder or assist you in promulgating the agenda...

Great point. Very true.

I recently watched an episode of "The O.C." a TV show aimed at adolescents and young adults. One of the stars of the show, Misha Barton, plays a young woman in high school who "experimented" with lesbianism. Her mother's response? "We all did it, dear. Just don't make it a lifestyle."

No, "dear." We didn't "all do it." Some of us had a functioning brain and parents who were paying attention.

But there are plenty of well-heeled reprobates who want us to believe it's as natural as a Hollywood nose job.

I wanted to come back to this:

And stop asking for obscure posts that people discarded years ago.

Apparently you didn't think that one through. It is you that keeps mentioning obscure posts. I always support my statements with specifics and you consider that obsessive. You always bring up this rebuttal (according to you) to some study I referenced, but when I ask you to produce it you can't and then you chastise me for asking you to support your statements. Sheesh. Apparently you didn't think that one through.

Do you know your reposting of quotes from years ago and tracking every opposition comment is zealotry and obsessive behavior or do not seriously realize what you look like?

First, I don't track every comment. Second, I save some of your comments when you refuse to support your statements. And finally, in doing so I can demonstrate you have no credibility and that matters when you attack my character with unsubstantiated blather.

The point of this thread is that it doesn't have to happen if people are paying attention and playing with a full deck.

Thanks for the clarification.

I usually make it a policy to only read the headline and then post something pointless.

Sadly, homosexuals refuse to recognize their own contradictions because now, as adults, their defiant sexuality defines them as much as any raised fist or snarling tattoo.

I think this is generally true. Many, having suffered quite a lot of conflict over it and having no hope they can actually be anything other than homosexual, quite naturally react this way. This leads to the unsupported claims of born-this-way and such. The Degeneres interview is a good one to look at. It's very rare for sexual deviates of any type to truly identify their fixation directly. To do so is to recognize the tragedy of their youth.

Ask any gay person. They were all sexualized as children which is why all homosexual adoption is child abuse because it continues the debilitating cycle of confusing affection with sexual battery.

While I think this is overwhelmingly true, like almost anything having to do with people, you'll find a small number of exceptions who don't have molestation in their backgrounds. As far as your conclusion about confusing affection with sexual battery, that does help to explain the common fixation on rape and S&M behaviors in pornography. I believe that many purchasers are former victims of premature sexuality, either seduced or coerced or raped. The sad thing is that such materials and practices only make them feel more dead inside, less capable of any feeling. If they do pursue such behavior, it is a way to break through, via extreme behavior, to that frozen core of themselves which always remains.

At any rate, that's my thinking.
