ArchivedDefence of Marriage ActMy youngest brother was gay and died of complications from AIDS. My oldest niece is a lesbian; I have a cousin who is a lesbian; and I was gay for most of my adult life. I personally know hundreds of gay men and lesbian women and count many as my friends. I doubt you or any straight can educate me on the development of a homosexual orientation. There is absolutely no scientific evidence that homosexuality is innate, inborn, or immutable. BTW, I have never stated that any person chooses to be gay, however, they can choose not to be gay or not to act upon the desires. Gay activists and liberal judges in liberal states have made homosexuality a political and legal issue not George Bush. Churches have a right to marry anyone they want to within the governing laws of each state. Gay churches have been performing unions for decades without the benefit of a piece of paper. There again I personally know gay men who think all this media frenzy concerning gay unions is stupid and will hurt the gay rights movement in the long run. I will ask you what I have asked many straights do you understand the long-term consequences of promoting a life style that is detrimental to the physical and mental health of the gay community? Go to your local library and check out the Netherlands studies that address the psychological problems found in gay men in Europe where gay unions are legal. You will find those studies in the Journal of General Psychiatry. Do an Internet search on gay health issues and then check the CDC website for statistics on STD's in gay men; you will find they are 5 times at greater risk for syphilis and 5000 times at greater risk for HIV infection. If you are going to be an advocate for gay marriages at least educate yourself about the development of homosexuality and the consequences of homosexuality. |
