"this is where you've assumed your conclusion and built additional arguments around it."

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yadada yadada yadada. I reached that conclusion over decades of observation and studying the problem.

Recasting a person's considered opinions and observations as "assumptions" is as common in certain quarters as it is tiresome, but it is neither valid nor honest.

"Unfortunately, facts do not bear out your conclusion."

Unfortunately, they do.

"but I doubt that you'll be able to demonstrate that this applies universally to all homosexuals."

Now that I know I'm dealing with someone who tries to recast conclusions as "assumptions," I doubt I could "demonstrate" to your satisfaction that water is wet, even by throwing you in the ocean.

Alright. Present your proof that every single person with same-gender attraction expereinced molestion or, at the very lest, seduction as a child/teenager.

I could counter with several people whom I've met who weren't molested, but you'll just claim that they are lying about it which I suppose makes your position undefeatable simply because of your incredible arrogance.
