it's like historians traveling back in time to meet George WAshington and wondering about his life but just not asking him.
It makes NO SENSE.
If they actually sat down and spoke with them it would break so many of the stereotypes they have about gays. They don't want to face the reality that they have much more in common with them than they think.

People are more comfortable in ignorance than they are with the facts. People are afraid of change, of growth, of having foundational beliefs altered. Which explains why we are still so emotionally in the Stone Age as a species.

i doubt it. catholics and christians are taught to love their fellow man. they are also taught to shun homosexuals. yes, you can do both.
i could care less how much in common i have with a homosexual and i dont see what that has to do with anything thats being discussed.
I expect from you an unbiased, scientific study that backs up your idea that:
1. People cannot be sexually attracted to the same gender
we are not debating their attraction to the same sex. we are debating wether or not that attraction is a choice. please stay on topic

2. People can be attracted to the opposite gender.
please see animals in nature, humans procreating.

If only heterosexual relationships were natural, then why is homosexuality found in nature?
I will not hold my breath waiting for a response
"According to geneticist Simon Levay in 1996, "Although homosexual behavior is very common in the animal world, it seems to be very uncommon that individual animals have a long-lasting predisposition to engage in such behavior to the exclusion of heterosexual activities. Thus, a homosexual orientation, if one can speak of such thing in animals, seems to be a rarity."
yep. its a rarity in the animal kingdom and guess what? it doesnt last.
if animals (and humans) were wired for it, why doesnt it last? its a choice.
You all know what I think is happening or is being attempted at? I think gay people or people who relate to them are trying to put heterosexual people's backs against the wall and are trying to force them to defend their heterosexuality. I'm not trying to be extreme, but that's what I see on the internet and also in offline settings. If gay people are feeling threatened by someone's lack of understanding then they seem to flip-the-script and put the heterosexual person on-the-spot. The whole, "Well, why don't YOU explain how YOU became heterosexual." And I'm just not feeling that whole strategy. It's like some are trying to turn heterosexuality into the an "optional" way of life. Nah, it's not.
yup
