Most parents I know don't hope for either a gay or straight child, and wouldn't care either way.

LOL !!!!!!!! So gay people are the result of bad parenting?

Beat the Gay Out of Your Child - YouTube
Nothing in that video says anything about "beating the gay" out of anyone. The pastor talks about cracking a limp wrist and giving a son who displays gay tendancies "a good punch".

I tend to agree - "man up" and teach your son that "God made him to be a male and he is going to be a male". Daughters need to be women - "they can play sports and play them for the glory of God".

It's time to end this ridiculous "sexual and gender identity" BS.

Nice misrepesentation job though.

Thanks for the link - I'm going to try and find any podcasts that this church puts out.

You know, of course, that they used to make kids who were left-handed write with their right hands.. My mom was one of those. When it turned out that my sister was left-handed, my mom insisted that they leave her alone and taught her to slant her paper the opposite way from what is done for right-handed people.

I hope that nobody is influencing him.

5 years old there's no sexual awareness, how could you pass that kind of judgement on a 5 year old child.

that's insane, but that's also the result of homosexual infiltration.
Homosexual infiltration by whom? We're all straight, although I did some bi-curious traveling during my college years.

And being gay doesn't just mean sex people. There are plenty of gay people out there not having sex. I've got a couple of old great aunts, who may or may not be lesbians (one most likely is) that are virgins.

Yep, that's why I chose it as an example.

Father here. I don't care if my kid turns out gay or straight, nor do I have "hopes" for either outcome.

In fact, if anything, I hope that my child turns out bi or pansexual.

They did that to my late grandmother. She was left handed, and they made her learn to write right handed. I heard it can actually screw up your mind. Fortunately my grandmother was one smart cookie. I'm also left handed, but they didn't force me to learn to write right handed. However; when I broke my left elbow almost 2 years ago, I had to learn to do a couple of things right handed. That was weird.

I think that your children should be removed from your home - if that is the kind of perverse environment that you are providing.
