Maybe homosexuality can't be proven by genetics...but it can't be UNPROVEN either.
Have you got a link for this? It is a little more frequent than the data I found, but even so we are talking about 0.02% of births which is hardly the "many" you referenced earlier.

What you have just offered here is what is known as a logical fallacy. If people want to claim that homosexuality is a genetic trait then they have the burden proof. By saying it can't be "unproven" you are asking science to prove a negative and that is generally impossible.
Nonsense, it asks a question which is perfectly logical based on your previous statement.
Maybe this will help. The purpose of science is to develop general laws that help explain how the world around us works and why things happen the way they do. This involves experimentation and observation. As I understand it, science isn’t used to prove or disprove but to explain.
I see now that the people in here are a clique that will stick together to attack people like me stupid enough to post my opinion. It's a trap thread. I woudl never compare God to homosexuality and a fair honest minded person would see that. No fairness in this group. I feel bad for the next person stupid enough to post an opinion you don't like....harrassment, slander and attacked.
No, you were asked a QUESTION. If the answer to the question is no, then all you have to do is say that the answer was no.

The problem is that you seem to be posting your opinion as if it was based in fact.
Go back and read what was said. It was a fair question. I have not slandered you, harassed you nor insulted you. I asked a question.
My post 165: Where is your proof that homosexuality is genetic.
Your post 166: I don’t have proof of God either....but logic and common sense proves otherwise...
My post 168: You’re comparing God to homosexuality?
The implication is that you are taking homosexuality on faith as you do God. That is a comparison. Hence the question.
Oh and, I'm not a "him". I am a grandmother.
To the Religion Moderator: If this is inappropriate I will understand if you remove it. Thanks.
And all of your children freepers.
Says right there in your profile. :-) Now that's something to be proud of!
I’m glad that they are all conservative. Hubby’s a freeper too. lol
Homosexuality is a deviant behavior. Plain and simple. It is sin. Now, personally, I'm a little libertarian here. I don't really care if someone is gay or not, in general. People should be free to live as they choose. But what I am opposed to is gay activists forcing me to embrace and accept what I find as deviant. Be gay if you want to, but allow me to, if I so chose, to openly tell you the Bible says you are going to hell.
Keep your sex in the bedroom and only God will know about it. That's the other problem with this. What gays really seem to want is not privacy, but the right to have sex in the streets, in our schools and in our churches. They want to be able to shove their lifestyles into our faces any time they choose. Seriously. If they actually did keep it in the bedroom, it would be no big deal.
Last, I will say this, I mentioned at the beginning that yes, people may be born gay. But, In Jesus, we can be born again! So, it doesn't matter how we are born, it matters how we finish. Everyone can have a new life in Jesus Christ!
Being genetic is the wedge they are using for special rights and protections, including "marriage", by claiming they can't help it. They were born this way. They try to use that argument to silence Christians too.
No

Extremely educational discussion on the thread. For anyone who wants to know whether or not people are born homosexual - and why this makes a difference - this is must reading. Scripter makes an appearance as well.
I meant to ping this out a couple of days ago and it slipped by me.
Homosexuality should once again be classified as a mental illness.
“If they’re born that way how come they do so damn much recruiting?”
Yes! And want to indoctrinate them at younger and younger ages?
If you are not comfortable with this type of debate, then ignore "open" RF threads altogether and instead post to the RF threads labeled "prayer" "devotional" "caucus" or "ecumenical."
Got it. Yeah, my skin isn’t thick enough for postning opinions with this clique...thanks.
