Since I am against sex education, I wonder why anyone should teach children anything in this respect. That topic was never even mentioned during all those years I went to school.

Ask 100 homosexuals who Harry Hay is... maybe 5 will know who he is. And they'll all be old.


The mainstream gay rights movement disavowed ANY connection or assertion that the struggles of gays were intertwined or related to NAMBLA or similar groups a couple of decades ago.

Again, let's bring it back up to 2012, shall we?
I've never heard of Harry Hay.

I mean, I KNOW people in America pick and choose which scientific concepts they want to believe in (same as they do with the Bible).... but really, if science says one thing, it's a lie to tell them another.
You can tell them about the opinions of others, but it is better to just tell them the truth, and in this case of homosexuality, it would be a lie to teach kids it is natural.

It is perversion. ‘Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am casting out before you." (Leviticus 18:22-24).

"For this reason God gave them up to vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, men with men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due." (Romans 1:26-27).






That is pretty plain language. Most people understand this, but the homosexuals have a way to spin it around to fit their understanding.
How can you spin this? It is clear as a bell.

Interesting.

This is man's interpretation.

Man is subject to bias and agenda.

And quite honestly, posting Leveticus?

Really?

That's hilarious.
It is amazing fundie Christians love to quote Leviticus without know anything that's in it except the "anti-gay" verses.

There are probably at least a dozen laws that Taratova should be executed for based on Leviticus.

Still not seeing how something that occurs in nature is unnatural.

I've never gotten an explanation as to why there are nerve endings in that area that can ONLY be stimulated sexually. I mean, they aren't activated through digestion, so what is their purpose?

Do you have any understanding of linguistics whatsoever?

This is Leviticus 20:13.

יג וְאִישׁ, אֲשֶׁר יִשְׁכַּב אֶת-זָכָר מִשְׁכְּבֵי אִשָּׁה
תּוֹעֵבָה עָשׂוּ, שְׁנֵיהֶם; מוֹת יוּמָתוּ, דְּמֵיהֶם בָּם.


Still clear as a bell?

Another tricky part to the whole "FOMG SEX IS FOR PROCREATION" argument is the existence of the clitoris.
