While I don't agree with how SoSick puts everything, I do agree that homosexuality at least for males is very unhealthy and risky. (As would those same behaviors be for females, though, when...not to be blunt...but when the rectum is involved. NOT meant for anything but feces). But I don't think being gay is healthy emotionally or spiritually for anyone, either, and that is why it is sin. Its not natural obviously. One good looking gay male I met told me once when I was about 13 that the reason he was gay was because all the females he had known were sluts. I do think sex and the human body is too much in your face now days and that that actually also detracts from its appeal. (Anyone remember the Love's babysoft commercial that said "innocence is sexier than you think?") A little mystery goes a long way as well as does anticipation. I think sex itself is wholly normal and should be fully enjoyed in its rightful boundaries with self control to be at its best and ideally should be reserved for marriage for a lot of reasons. (Not a prude). Lust becomes empty really fast... But I do not believe God hates gay people... Anyone ever heard the adage hate the sin but love the sinner? Jesus loved even "the least of these...." even seeking them out for special attention.

I feel for gay people and wonder how they must have been hurt to cause them to become distrustful of the opposite sex. (Although know that's likely not why they all become gay). A woman in a health food store told me once, too, that certain mineral deficiencies (sp?) can cause hormonal imbalances that way (which most of us know). I've seen females who looked very masculine and males who looked effiminate and females and males who looked very much what they were but surprised me when I found out they were gay. Sometimes I see kids just plain experimenting with it because its out there and MTV, etc., (and even school in some cases) makes them think its ok. While I don't like judging others, in this case I do have to say unequivocally that IT IS NOT NORMAL OR RIGHT. But that does not mean I hate gay people. And I agree with what Pwcca said about not wanting to know what goes on behind closed doors.... I choose not to go there. I take offense when anything blatantly sexual is flaunted or forced on us....or especially on kids, though. But that can apply to both gay and straight issues, too. Its a private affair..... There is way too much smut and porn out there these days and its carrying into things such as child pornography. Porn will rot a soul quicker than anything, IMO. There has even been a tie to it and murder.
