I wouldn't actually disparage it to someone in particular though because I was raised right and am not a douchebag. As a whole though I think it is time to move on from it.

I don't know about equal amounts however labelling all religious people as being homophobic is BS. In fact more Christian groups are accepting of homosexuality. A majority, just, 54 percent. https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/12/18/most-u-s-christian-groups-grow-more-accepting-of-homosexuality/ As for Christmas that " feast" was "appropriated" from the pagan festival Saturnalia.

CanucksForever2 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I just want to share this from Mr. Rogers. “You are a very special person. There is only one like you in the whole world. There's never been anyone exactly like you before, and there will never be again. Only you. And people can like you exactly as you are.” Mr. Rogers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilunga Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 3 hours ago, Odd. said: Sexuality is very much a choice. There is no such thing as a straight or gay gene. Sexuality is fluid. There are many instances of people being straight and then suddenly developing attraction to the same sex and vice versa. To say you are born gay or straight is incorrect. Now, if we’re talking about choosing to be straight to avoid being attacked or to fit in then that’s different and I agree its wrong to not be able to express your true sexuality and often times those aren’t really even choices. https://theconversation.com/stop-calling-it-a-choice-biological-factors-drive-homosexuality-122764 To sum up the article " While there is no single " gay" gene there is overwhelming evidence of a biological basis for a sexual orientation that is programmed into the brain before birth based on a mix of genetics and prenatal conditions, none of which the foetus chooses " 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cited multiple studies earlier at their request and this poster ignored them and shot back with a biblical propaganda website as their rebuttal. But you are correct. While it hasn't been studied enough to have conclusive evidence, the overwhelming amount of studies point towards this being true. There hasn't been enough studies done on it yet to be conclusive in part because it's a taboo subject, and there is concern that it could lead to conversion therapy technique's to try to "fix" the issue.

You've said this twice now, and I'm not even sure if you know. I referenced 3 different scientific publications. None are "a website", they would be published then distributed through many websites. But I specifically avoided posting any websites and instead cited the articles directly out of a macabre curiosity if you would actually look them up after you asked for them. Your Bible propaganda referenced those studies, which isn't hard they are quite well known, but just dismissed them. Also, fun fact your website also said tattoos are a sin and "the repercussions of interracial marriage is something you should strongly consider" . Irrelevant, but just found it kinda fun in a gross kinda way. So I'd love to actually know what your attempting to argue since you've said it twice now.
