You completely misrepresented that "theory". LOL! Par for the course.
Look, just because fundamentalists are largely anti-gay doesn't mean that most people who are anti-gay are fundamentalists. Follow ?

Roughly half the public believe homosexuality is immoral. I doubt that number consists mainly of religious fundamentalists.

That's not what I posted. I was responding to another poster's statement of:

"The VAST majority of people who have issues with homosexuality are the ones who believe that a man in the sky who appeared from nothing and has omnipotent powers spends his days taking tally of who buggers whom."

That isn't limited to fundamentalists. However fundies are certainly the most loud.

Also, our bodies aren't exactly wired with STDs in mind. If there was some instinct that acknowledged and tried to avoid STDs, the body would either have some form of protection by now to go with it or a 6th sense that could detect STDs. Neither exist. Next fallacy of division? Or shall we try a different fallacy now?
Is that true? Are there really gays who are "revolted" by the idea of "straight sex"? I've read countless posts by gays here on CD and never encountered that idea before. It's hard for me to comprehend that a gay person could find the idea of their own biological parents having sex as "revolting".

Blind faith?

Read Daniel and any history text, then get back to us when you know what you're talking about.

Do you believe the Axis and Allied Powers timed the end of WWII to coincide with Bible Prophesy?

Do you believe fifteenth century scribes were able to see 337 years into the future?

What I wanted to suggest for your anonymous sex was a cantalope, or a male prostitute, since you're just looking for an orifice, no strings. Or a blow up doll, available at all times.
I tend to think it's much easier for girly men to hook up with other men, because then you don't have to deal with all the emotional stuff that comes with women. We're complicated.
I tend to think none of that made any sense at all and that I was right the first time when I said you didn't really have a response.

It's useful and healthy in other animals?

Care to provide proof of that, or is this an example of you making things up as needed?

Is this a serious response?

Yes, there are gays who find heterosexual sex as disgusting as heteros find gay sex. On one of my other boards, a lesbian on there actually gets nauseous at the thought of penetration.

Although, I thought most people found the idea of their parents having sex revolting?

Well Gee-Wiz there jbcmh81, if "sexuality is set before puberty and most likely is, at least in part, biological", what's the other part that it would "most likely" be?

They still are - they can only learn to lie and pretend not to be. Which is not conducive to good mental and emotional health.

There is no credible evidence that so-called "reparative" therapy (aka pray away the gay) works. There is definite evidence that it is harmful.

Which is why all the mainstream health organziations warn against it.

I've also read a few transcipts of some of those "reparative" sessions and found them shockingly unethical. No ethical counsellor or psychologist would try to convince a client they had a bad relationship with their father or were sexually abused when they weren't, just because it fits in with their discredited religious based ideas about homosexuality.

Turned my stomach to hear so-called "therapists" being so manipulative with clients - all because of their own anti-gay values.


Thus says Dr. Jaymax...
