Oh, wait...I think I spoke too soon. By this comment you seem to be going back to what you previously stated...and you are wrong. Just because a heterosexual--due to trauma--has chosen to enter into a same-sex relationship does not mean that they are "solely attracted to the same sex." They...
Oh, good grief! This is what I've been saying from the beginning (bangs head on wall.) You, however, in one of your posts stated that you knew of some women who, because of being sexually abused by men, "became lesbians." My comment simply stated that those women (unless they were already...
Point being...despite how the abuse has affected them, they remain heterosexual. That does not and cannot change and you acknowledged this in your comment (perhaps you didn't realize it?) when you stated "At least for parts of their lives." If they "became homosexuals" they could not simply...
No, choosing to enter into a relationship with someone of the same sex does not mean that a heterosexual has "become homosexual." What it means is that a heterosexual woman has decided to enter into a relationship with another woman due to trauma she has suffered at the hands of men.
A...
No, environment is NOT a determining factor. If it were, then any woman who suffered sexual abuse would become a lesbian, and that is obviously not the case. Many women who have been sexually abused as children enter into a regular heterosexual relationship later in life. Those who CHOOSE to...
Sexual acts are not sexual orientation. Not sure how that is so hard for you to understand. Sexual acts engaged in by homosexuals are exactly the same sexual acts engaged in by heterosexuals.
Of course situations like this exist...where the women CHOOSE to enter a same-sex relationship because of severe trauma. That does not mean that they "became homosexual." They are still heterosexuals who have CHOSEN to enter into a same-sex relationship because that's where they feel safe...
Humans do not need religion in order to have a moral compass. In fact, many non-religious people are far more moral and ethical than those who espouse a religion.
Well, no, it really isn't that complicated. You are born with a sexual orientation, which could be 100% heterosexual, 100% homosexual, or somewhere in between, but that sexual orientation cannot be changed through environmental actions.
If sexual orientation is not genetic, then a person...
It's not really that complex, if you are honest about it. You, obviously, are heterosexual, are you not? Did you have to think about which sex you would be attracted to, or did it just come naturally? If you are male, did you ever feel sexual attraction for another male and then stopped...
So, you believe that sexual preferences (orientation) is not genetic, but is a choice? Tell us, then, exactly when YOU "chose" to be attracted to the opposite sex. Are you saying that prior to making that "choice" you were equally attracted to both the opposite and the same sex, but that at...
Excuse me? There IS no "sexual act of homosexuality." Heterosexual couples engage in exactly the same types of sexual acts as homosexuals. For that matter, lesbians don't engage in the "sexual act of homosexuality" to which I believe you are referring.
You could, however, know about some...
In other words, you know that there are NO scriptures stating that homosexuality is "harmful" or even "sinful". Homosexuality is not addressed at all in the scriptures unless you try to twist the injunction against heterosexuals abandoning their "natural" urges in order to engage in same-sex...
Well, looks like you just opened up yet another can of worms. A couple who, because of the disability of one partner, cannot engage in anything other than a "sterile by intent" sex act is sinning? For instance, the husband is confined to a wheelchair, so the couple engage in intimacies...
You are definitely correct. That was just my poor attempt at a joke in responding to Earthtank, who said this:
Since he stated that man is NOT an animal, I wondered if he considered man to be either plant or mineral. For some reason, he didn't respond.
Please note that these scriptures very definitely state that these people were HETEROSEXUALS who exchanged their HETEROSEXUAL relationships for homosexual relationships. It says nothing about homosexuals.
Could you, then, quote the scripture and/or scriptures that specifically state that a monogamous same-sex relationship is harmful? Just something that explicitly states that and not a scripture that you have to manipulate and massage in order to try to imply that that is what it says.
There are many instances of real homosexual relationships in the animal kingdom that have absolutely nothing to do with dominance. For instance, Skip and Ping, two male penguins in the Berlin zoo, have adopted an abandoned egg and are taking care of it. These two penguins have a bonded...
There is a very big difference between engaging in an activity that harms another (forcing sex on children or animals) and committing to a monogamous relationship with someone whom you love. Don't go that route...it is ridiculous to even try to bring this up to justify your bigotry.
