Quite a few conservative heads are exploding too.
4-5 previous threads. Many Freepers are upset with Dr. Carson for saying this.
Todd Akin Redux.
The homosexual community is like low-fat milk: less than 2%.
And it is the height of stupidity to compel the vast majority of a population to cringe and scrape to the hysterical, petulant demands of a statistically insignificant fringe.
Homosexuality serves no evolutionary purpose.
YOU ARE BORN GAY! But your gender is optional...
Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Good, let’s have the medical debate, and let’s ask why for over 100 years it was classified as an illness and now it’s not?
Let’s review the mountain of scientific evidence out there, twin studies...gene studies. Where is the scientific proof?
Get some psychiatrists out there to give their views. They see the aftermath of this on a daily basis, the heartache.
Ben Carson is a brave man, but may be the only person who can open this up for debate.
I don’t remember making a conscious choice of my sexual preference.
I see this posted daily on numerous sites yet I have never witnessed a liberal who actually gave a tinker's damn about what a conservative says or writes.
I have certainly never seen one of their heads explode.
As a scientist he understands that if homsexuality were truly an hereditary trait, it would have disappeared from the gene pool long ago because homos can’t reproduce and pass the trait along to their offspring.
Thus by scientific definition, human characteristis that are not hereditary are learned. In other words, the result of a conscious choice.
To me it’s always kinda been like, “why are fat people fat,” because they were born that way, they are just big boned, family history....yada yada yada. The reality is most people are fat because of what they stuff in their mouth...just like the deviants...they are gay because of what they....well, you get the picture.
Ben! One step away from asking the key question: Is Marriage just a contract between 1:N people of any and all sexes and predilections?
What about sister/brother? Mother/son? Just for the benefits, since reproduction is no longer part of the equation.
If I was single I would have convinced 2 or 3 of my friends and family to RUN to the court to apply for multi-person marriage within and without sexual standards.
There is not a SINGLE or COLLECTIVE argument for “gay marriage” that does not apply to polyandry and polygamy and incest.
35% of the population has been duped into supporting fagism.
Soccer moms
College students
MSM
Etc.
...... Heck .... If there is actual evidence showing that there may be genetic flaws that lead to a certain behaviors then perhaps some peoples proclivities may be led by genetics.
.... That said, there is no evidence saying that ALL gays have that same genetic marker. I am sure that choice, environmental and learned behavior account for the vast majority of that community. But I do believe that there are some that do have a genetic marker that MAY make them prone to that lifestyle.
Go Carson! F the lib media trolls!
Course Obama said the same thing and crickets chirped.
mention 2 words to shut ‘em up...Anne Heche.
How can being gay not be a choice, but being male or female IS a choice?
They just can’t say no. I call that a choice.
Homosexuality is a form of temptation like heterosexual lust, or masterbation or yearning for alcohol, or being envious or greedy etc. Whether we act on those sinful temptations we are all attacked with by the evil one is a choice. Jesus made that clear during his 40 days in the desert and his sermon on the mount. Everyone is different and we ALL have different temptations we must conquer by being filled with the Holy Spirit. The Bible is clear, Christ centered values are right the rest is wrong.
If “gayness” is caused by being “born that way”, then why aren’t ALL DemocRATs homosexuals?! Or maybe they are.
I’d say most Putin supporters would fit the type of man he describes.
I think he has more than a bit of evidence to back it up.
