Is Homosexuality a illness? And how to heal?

Here is the OED entry for transgender:
Of, relating to, or designating a person whose identity does not conform unambiguously to conventional notions of male or female gender, but combines or moves between these; transgendered.
If you notice, the term is based on a person's identity. Nothing more. It doesn't say someone who has been castrated or someone who has received hormones of the opposite sex, but, rather, someone whose identity does not conform to conventional standards.

even to the extent of posting a link which is obviously the result of a google search without actually checking the content of the link supplied. Fractally wrong, even.

if you're talking about me, i read every link, sometimes twice. no problems are too fun to handle.

Really?

Going back to that simple one about the definition of "in loco parentis", did you read the definition which proved my side of the argument? Or did you read it, and not understand it? Or did you read it, realize it proved you wrong and just hope I wouldn't notice?

..do I need to go trawling back through the last many pages where you've posted links to pages that don't support the arguments in the posts that contain them? Either you're not reading these articles you link to, or your comprehension is substantially lacking.

Yes you could be right, but religion, mmmm, I think we have too many already ?.

if not new religion, then we need a cerebro for errant religion. that way, no one who does evil gets away at the risk of the religion itself. cerebro would track them all down.

yes i did read it. if you're asking then it must bother you that "in loco parentis" is too dangerous to talk about.
"Too dangerous to talk about"??? Don't be silly: you were using a term inaccurately, and even posted a link showing you were wrong but still don't seem to have accepted the error, even for such a simple and straightforward case.

And that seems to me to be symptomatic of the rest of your behaviour: if it's not intentionally dishonest, there's a yawning cavern of lack of understanding in pretty much everything you're writing. You're so fundamentally wrong about so much, but far too arrogant to even consider it. I also linked to the wiki Dunning Kruger effect page earlier, which might give some idea as to why you can be so wrong, yet so certain of your own rectitude. I'm guessing you didn't read that, though.

i don't suppose you know what to do when you are under a DRUNKEN URGING like this house experiences all the time in the house of our lives.

Are you trying to cop out by implying that you've been drunk when you've posted all the twaddle you have in this thread?

please look up the story of Job. they say that god enjoyed watching job being a better man.
God allowed Job to suffer. And that, for you, is your proof of this? Its an allegorical story. A metaphorical tale of teaching, at least allegedly, something. It doesn't prove your point. Not even remotely.

Homosexual tendencies can be cured and treated just like any mental condition.
Assuming you are hetero, can you be 'cured' of that? I didn't think so. What makes you think that being gay can be cured or that it is a 'mental condition' when the APA stated it is NOT.

"treatments" that destroy the mind or even the brain can work to stop someone from being gay without having to castrate him. that's because the religious workers REALLY don't want anyone to be gay. you remember the posting about jessica dutra? she killed her 4 year old son because she THOUGHT he was gay. that's how serious this is. if you really don't want someone to be gay, you'll do anything to stop them from being gay.
So you advocate destroying the mind or brain, as you state here, as a 'treatment' for being gay??? Are you serious? And your alleged credible sources for this all come from media sources. Not one has been from a credible peer reviewed source. Not one. If you truly advocate this, you need help yourself.

the best treatment is the only treatment for those who can afford it. that's why there are no more treatment in the world of intercession.
