I read a lot of comments about homosexuality being a mental disorder, yet I can't find a single credible source that corroborates that belief.

If you genuinely believe homosexuality is a mental disorder than surely you'll be able to provide some evidence, right?

Periodicals from the 1950's are hard to find, give them some time.

There are thousands of species that have homosexuals. Below is a list of just mammals. Prior to Christian colonization it was found around the world and was no big deal (sometimes even celebrated). List of mammals displaying homosexual behavior - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The point is that it is not a mental disorder. Now believing in something not there i.e. "god" is a different story.

Possibly born differently gene-wise or whatever then it develops as the person grows in life situations and intelligence. At one time I was ignorant thinking it was a choice. Homosexuals are often more successful than average and that's hardly a mental deficiency.

There's no gay gene and no mental disorder associated with being gay.

My best friend in the whole world is a lesbian and she is truly wonderful person. She tried to join the Army but messed up her knee during basic, but still tried to serve her country. She's beautiful and amazing person and didn't know she was gay until her late teens early 20s.

People bringing this up have nothing better to do other than thump their bibles.

A mental disorder is christianity, being gay is normal.

Mental illness is a serious issue and should not be used by anyone for political purposes.

Let's get some things straight - homosexuality is not a mental disorder and anyone who suggests otherwise hasn't got the faintest idea what mental illness is. The same is true for those who would suggest that adherents to a particular religious belief or political persuasion have "mental issues".

Anyone who trivializes mental disorders is a loser.

It would be... if we were living in a reverse-type universe.

BTW, how "open-minded" of you to insult Christians. Classy.
