May 6, 201511 yr So no one can ever just change to that lifestyle? You're either gay or you're not. Who you choose to sleep with doesn't change that.
May 6, 201511 yr Yeah, poor Christians, someone is taking aim at them all the time. In this day and time yes. How many Imans have been ordered to give their sermons to the Mayor? It did happen to Preachers in Texas.
May 6, 201511 yr Author So a guy goes in straight and after several nights of love making decides he likes the gay lifestyle, and comes out gay then that disproves what you say. What makes you think that is love making going on in prison? Them dudes ain't in love and that isn't a gay lifestyle in prison. I would almost guarantee that anyone who comes out of prison gay arrived at that prison gay. Based on your theory you don't have to go prison to be gay. According to your theory you could wake up tomorrow morning and decide you want to be gay. That's not happening. You're either attracted to the same sex or you aren't.
May 6, 201511 yr Author Does Mr Huckabee still believe AIDS patients should be quarantined? Whoa, I'm interested in this answer.
May 6, 201511 yr Does Mr Huckabee still believe AIDS patients should be quarantined? "I had simply made the point -- and I still believe this today -- that in the late '80s and early '90s, when we didn't know as much as we do now about AIDS, we were acting more out of political correctness than we were about the normal public health protocols that we would have acted," Huckabee told Fox News
May 6, 201511 yr So no one can ever just change to that lifestyle? You can't choose to just one day be attracted to men. If you can you were always attracted to men. Are you attracted to men and just choose to be straight? At any point in your life did you make a conscious to be with only women?
May 7, 201511 yr Beyond any scientific studies or " he said, she saids " or prison rape stories , I know what my eyes see. IF , IF you have ever watched a person from birth to young childhood , to young teens, into adulthood who happens to be a gay adult and you didn't see or notice signs from their young child hood that this man or woman had different attractions than most of the straight counterparts you just were not paying any attention. SOME people might choose to be gay , they very well might , SOME are born to be same sex attracted whether they like it or not , those folk have a extremely difficult decision about age 10-14 -- am I going to do what my brain and body tells me to , or am I going to be a miserable , distraught , tortured soul and attempt not to follow the way I've felt since I can remember having any feelings. Mt Ref I don't hold any ill feelings about your position , I'd say its close to mine from 10 years ago , But when you a witness a gay person grow up and you see from early childhood in your own eyes that they don't have the same attractions to " normal " gender things ( boys who are feminine , girls who are masculine ) then maybe your position will evolve . For some its no choice . The most tortured people on earth are young gay Christians who don't understand their own sexuality , those and even non Christian youths are at terrible risk for suicide and horrific mental conditions and us ( society ) telling them to decide ( choose) to just not be gay sure isn't the helping . With love and respect . MD PS , I've said this before , I sure intend on spending eternity with these gay Christians I mentioned , if God won't forgive their sin ( yes I believe its sin ) then He surely won't forgive mine . Reminds me of Paul worrying about his eternal salvation stating about sin " I am the chief of all sinners" .

Not sure how God can forgive a sin if you keep committing the sin and live the lifestyle thats the sin.
May 7, 201511 yr Not sure how God can forgive a sin if you keep committing the sin and live the lifestyle thats the sin. Well, then they'll be joined in Hell by the majority of the people of this earth. You know, like all the people having sex out of wedlock and cheating on their spouses. I'd take the howling of the Christian right a lot more seriously in their protestations over homosexuality if the Christian right were a lot less single-minded about their approach to homosexuality. Especially since, comparatively, nary a word is ever said about spousal infidelity and sex out of wedlock.
