NARTH certainly have some interesting reading.

Take for example this article:
“Born Gay, No Change Possible” Myths Never Substantiated by Researchers, Yet Professionals Seem Unaware

and another interesting one about children of homosexuals

Lol NARTH is an organization with a very clear bias and has a history of misusing studies. Not exactly the most credible place to get information. If that is a source you are going to trust then I think our conversation is over

May not be worth quoting, but definitely worth reading to get an alternative opinion

Yeah, it's great reading to get the opposite to the truth.

Maybe good reading if you want to see just how willfully ignorant people can be.

Either way, or whatever you make of it. Still good reading.

Why wouldn't they be accepted? This obsession with people's sexual preferences seems a bit perverse!

Sexual deviance, as it has become commonly known, is generally not regarded as a positive trait. .

Why so? Sex is an expression of love, not just a biological experience. I think it's great that people express themselves in different ways.

Don't ask me, ask the public.

Probably because in more recent years 'sexual deviance' has become more commonly used in the same sentence as words such as 'paedophilia' or 'rape'.

I am referring only to the quoted term here, nothing else.

The way I see it, if you personally believe homosexuality is a sinful lifestyle, you ARE wrong, but keep it to yourself. Just let live and be happy. It just is pathetic making threads about it. Some people may agree, but the majority won't. I find that a negative opinion of the subject is usually due to the following: Religion, fear of something they don't understand, lack of education of it or being paranoid about ones sexual preference. People just do not like to accept change and something 'different'. They like things to be kept the good old way. Most people are due to lack of education. They go for stereotypes, misconceptions; therefore, having a personal prejudice. Many people grow out of it once they actually meet a gay/lesbian person and realise gay people aren't all flamboyant/lesbians aren't all manly.

It's just a silly thing to make a thread about. What do you expect to get? People to look at your post and think, oh my, you are correct. 5% of the population is making a huge threat to our society? OMG the human race could become extinct.

No.

Sorry, it's just your answer gives the impression that you support the view which you believe society has towards homosexuality, and I was wondering if you could elaborate.

Wasn't quite sure whether to put this one in this topic or the "gay marriage" topic:

Christians sue Eric Pickles for £25K after block on conference promoting heterosexual marriage

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...-marriage.html

The organisers of a major conference defending traditional marriage are suing the Government after they were barred from an official building because they allegedly breached ‘diversity’ policies.

The conference, whose high-profile speakers included David Cameron’s ‘Big Society’ guru Phillip Blond, was cancelled at the last minute by the Government-owned Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Central London after organisers were told it was ‘inappropriate’.

Communities Secretary Eric Pickles is now facing claims for £25,000 for breach of contract and religious discrimination, according to legal papers seen by The Mail on Sunday.

Christian Concern founder Andrea Williams said the centre had earlier hosted a conference by gay-rights organisation Stonewall. She said: ‘It would seem that the centre does not extend the same hospitality to Christian groups.’

I find it interesting how people are saying homosexuality is a good thing, reason being it helps bring down the population of this world.

By that logic we should have more illegal wars and abandon research on life threatening illnesses.

We have established that homosexuality is a contradiction to the human genetic code (we are designed to sexually reproduce), however many, too many, are saying because they are not harming anyone else there is no problems. Can this really be used a justification for homosexuality?

How would one define harm?

Someone may drink alcohol and harm their body, they are not harming you or me so why should any doctor tell them to stop drinking?

Furthermore I would like to raise a point from a previous thread.

Stephen Fry is a very famous homosexual. He is defined and defines him self as a homosexual. However he had admitted he was sexually attracted to at least one female. This is contradictory to homosexuality not being a choice. Surely if someone was homosexual without choice, they would only be attracted to males. Then by definition Stephen Fry is bisexual.

This leads to a question, how many of the homosexuals in the world are attracted to women or will be attracted to women sometime in their future?

From a scientific perspective it will always be advantageous for a person to form a relationship with the opposite sex, not only that we are designed to do this.

Homosexuality by definition is a disease - this point cannot be argued against. So it should be treated like a disease.

So basically you're saying, regarding to Stephen Fry, that he has chosen a label to call himself, which prohibts him ever having sexual relations outside that rlabel? This is what's wronf with labels... -.-...

Oh I've read this and laughed. Don't feed the troll is what springs to mind.

Saying that, the OP may know as well as everyone else that if all the gays in the world just "disappeared" we'd all be in turmoil because a lot of people who are doing big things in business etc are in fact gay...

Shame that this website is for students, people who seem to be 'educated' yet they have such closed minds... Pity on you OP.

Well done everyone who had something to say about the troll!

I'm sorry how is this trolling?

I believe I have made some valid points, your points about business are not justified in any way.

Homosexuality is not favourable, human DNA has proven this.

Explain why homosexuality is not a negative genetic mutation? (hypothetically assuming homosexuality is without choice).
