My post was meant to point out one simple fact: being gay does not make one "unstable" or emotionally or psychologically deficient or, in that case, unfit to serve as a judge, elected official, in the military, etc.

To think otherwise is trully ignorant and utterly ridiculous. But I would expect nothing less from the crowd posting on this thread.

Flame away ... BFD ...

So, you're able to repeat yourself; now we know that.

Can you answer my question?

IBTZ.

According to the American Psychiatric Association up until 1973, that's exactly what they have. The APA removed homosexuality from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual in 1973, not as a result of any new scientific breakthroughs, but because of pressure from homosexual groups. What does that tell you?

This is your argument? I mean, seriously, this is your argument? The APA had it in their book so it must be true? The DSM constantly gets revised. Moreover, many of their classifications are contrived to start with.

I get the feeling that Democrat is more of a "disorder" than gay. ;-D

They are cluster conditions, I'm afraid. One is rarely found without the other.

If you want to think there are no gay Republicans, you just go right ahead. You'll feel better. ;)

Having known many active homosexuals in my lifetime, I disagree strongly.

To think otherwise is trully ignorant and utterly ridiculous.

Well, I think that about those who hold your opinion.

So there we are.

Degeneracy is a health disorder, or was until the degenerates raised enough dissonance demanding to be called normal and the liberal societal engineering democrats kissed their butts and counted their votes. Degeneracy (and sinkEmperor clinton is a sexual degenerate also, this doesn't apply to just homsexuals) is an illness that will twist truth and ignore right and wrong at times when we the people can't really afford such foolishness. So yeah, degeneracy is a reason to keep a perverted mind off of the court.

Apparently you are unable to comphrend...or unwilling.

Oh, there are. I'd be willing to wager that the party registration within the "gay" deathstyle community is about 80% Dem, 20% GOP. And of the homosexual Republicans, I'd say about 90% are of the variety that think Rudy Giuliani would make a fabulous president.

Of the remainder who have homosexual inclinations but are actually intellectually conservative, I'd wager that the vast majority of them become ex-gays at some point.

Maybe, maybe not. But my question is: Are you genuinely surprised at the suggestion that a woman who has publicly embraced perverted sexual addictions has serious problems?

OVERHAULING OF STRAIGHT AMERICA

I don't know if I really believe in the "ex-gay" thing or not. The test question would be.... would you want your daughter to marry one? ;)

Dan,

You are right as outlined in the Overhauling of Straight America --- being a judge, in a position of power, is all part of the plan.

"In November, 1987, the homosexual magazine Guide published, “The Overhauling of Straight America,” by Marshall Kirk and Erastes Pill. This article was a proposed blueprint by homosexual activists for transforming the social values of "straight" America. At the core of the program was a media campaign to change the way the average citizens viewed homosexuality by desensitizing them concerning homosexuals and homosexual rights."

This is a normal, well-adjusted family where the parents just happen to be gay.

What in Heavens name is "normal"?

Normal is children being raised by a mother and a father. I feel very sorry for the children you describe. People can pretend all they want that homosexuality does not have consequences, and does not indicate other problems, but that doesn't make it true.

It appears to me that `degeneracy' is defined as "reverting to an earlier simpler state" and that doesn't sound bad at all. Some people seek to simplify their lives, short of `preversion' to be sure.
In any event I don't see it defined so much as a health problem than as a moral judgment.

[MHGinTN]

The small light you offer will never penetrate the closed mind already wrapped up in 'tolerance of alternate lifestyles'. Give it a rest, your poster isn't going to see anything not prepackaged by liberaldom.

[dcnd9]

Just as the alcohlic resents those who have overcome their abnormal attraction so too the gay person resents the ex-gay!

Who better knows the gay person than the person who has been there and overcome!

You sound like you're referring to Sasquatch. What's to believe? They do exist...

Degeneracy--the way I use the term--is a mental illness that manifests in (where the degeneracy is sexual in nature, meaning sex consumes too much of the individual's active time, thoughts, and drives in life) behaviors which imbalance the individual.
