I have become numb from the bombardment of homosexual propaganda.
The question of genetic abnormalities is one that is most compelling I think. The key is “abnormalities”. There are genetic abnormalities(e.g. no arms or legs, six fingers or toes, and also some sexual).How should we deal with these abnormalities?
If we aren’t dealing with genetics, there are also studies that show certain brain activity for abnormal psychological behavior. Again, the question remains, “How should we deal with these abnormalities?”
The problem is, getting someone to accept they may have a problem.
We accept people with abnormalities into our society with the understanding that they need to be treated equally. Physical abnormalities are dealt with diferently as mental abnormalities.
As we may accept abnormalities into society, I certainly would not promote them.
We need genuine, un-biased studies to prove what ever will be proven and then fix the problem.

Unless of course you mean they are different from you. The Human body is full of variation, that’s why no two people are the same. Abnormality implies a negative variation that leads to disease and disorder. No medical association believes non-heterosexuality to be a disorder or a disease or anything of that sort. Any differences that exist are just a part of normal human variation. Like the fact that I am taller than 97% of men my age. The APA removed homosexuality from its diagnostic manual decades ago and now they even support marriage equality and have concluded that same sex parents are just as capable of raising well adjusted children as heterosexual parents. Some of their studies even suggest that same-sex couples might be better at raising children since the strength of their relationships has survived persecution, prejudice, and bigotry.

It just repeats gay stereotypes that aren’t true, yet many Americans believe it. Gay culture wasn’t created by non-heterosexuals, it was created by heterosexual stereotypes.

You are entitled to think homosexuality is wrong. But it isn’t abnormal in terms of science. The medical community does not back you up on this one, I am sorry. As far as your belief in morals. Homosexuality is wrong to you, then fine. But you should also show the morality of acceptance of those that are different and believe differently than you. Be more concerned about your own salvation.

You aren’t trying to argue, seriously, that because LGBT people can get married, straight people aren’t, are you? This line of thinking makes absolutely no sense. And the scare tactic of your rhetorical “Do we really want this for America?” makes me sick to my stomach.

Also, the language used in hate crimes legislation authored to date specifically allows clergy to preach against this so-called “abomination” of homosexuality-so don’t try to apply the lack of such qualifying language in European legislation to that of American legislation that has made exceptions for so-called “people of faith.”
