fuzz2050, I also know many loving, compassionate, and sincere gay men and lesbian women and they also know I am ex-gay for reasons of my faith. I am far from homophobic and they would agree, many overuse this term. Homophobia is by definition a "fear of" and some dictionaries add the word "irrational".
I understand that many teen suicides are the result of dealing with sexual orientation issues; however, you and others keep throwing out 80% as a number without backing it up. I have been researching gay teen suicides and have not found the number to be this great.
Gay activists like to blame Christianity for gay bashing (physical, emotional, and verbal) when in reality studies have shown this is not true. Harassment in schools is usually the result of ever-straights students lashing out at something they do not understand and therefore fear male teens feel their masculinity is threatened by gay youth and it has nothing to do with religious belief.
