But apparently a poll about asking Brits if anyone would care if the royal baby turns out to be gay (most wouldn't) sends some of the posters on this thread into hysterical anti-gay rants.
Curious.
Thanks for giving us links to one who hates England in the first place. Two people who are hooked on drugs at least one is, you didn't give a link to the once child star. These opinions are priceless!!!
If you were Christian, you wouldn't have issues with the source, claiming it is wrong because his author is "evangelical who was formerly Executive Director of the Council for National Policy, America’s leading networking group for conservative political leaders".
All Christians have to toe the evangelical conservative line?

If you weren't brainwashed, you'd see that what you are suggesting is ludicrous. To agree or disagree automatically with what a person says or writes because of group affiliation leads to nothing more than the lack of logic you are demonstrating in this thread.
To support this claim, you then quoted the following:

"The rate of homosexual versus heterosexual child sexual abuse is staggering," said Reisman, who was the principal investigator for an $800,000 Justice Department grant studying child pornography and violence. "Abel,s data of 150.2 boys abused per male homosexual offender finds no equal (yet) in heterosexual violations of 19.8 girls."
You obviously know nothing about empirical research methods. First, rate of incidence does not translate to the total number in a population who engage in behavior under study. Second, the population in those studies is not gay men. It's convicted criminals. Now I'm sure that you don't realize the significance of the difference, but it is huge. Third, you don't know that pedophilia is distinct from adult sexuality:
"According to Dr. Fred Berlin, a Johns Hopkins University professor who founded the National Institute for the Study, Prevention and Treatment of Sexual Trauma in Baltimore, Md., pedophilia is a distinct sexual orientation marked by persistent, sometimes exclusive, attraction to prepubescent children. Pedophilia - TIME
So keep spewing the lie about most pedophiles being homosexual. Even an increasing number of strict conservatives know it isn't true:
Another problem related to terminology arises because sexual abuse of male children by adult men2 is often referred to as "homosexual molestation." The adjective "homosexual" (or "heterosexual" when a man abuses a female child) refers to the victim's gender in relation to that of the perpetrator. Unfortunately, people sometimes mistakenly interpret it as referring to the perpetrator's sexual orientation. As an expert panel of researchers convened by the National Academy of Sciences noted in a 1993 report: "The distinction between homosexual and heterosexual child molesters relies on the premise that male molesters of male victims are homosexual in orientation. Most molesters of boys do not report sexual interest in adult men, however" (National Research Council, 1993, p. 143, citation omitted).
Read this entire piece and Dr. Keller gives cited studies and how those studies are used by individuals like yoursef to take studies out of context from the study's originators to fit their own narrative. Much like your source material did.
Back to the research...

Reflecting the results of these and other studies, as well as clinical experience, the mainstream view among researchers and professionals who work in the area of child sexual abuse is that homosexual and bisexual men do not pose any special threat to children. For example, in one review of the scientific literature, noted authority Dr. A. Nicholas Groth wrote:
Are homosexual adults in general sexually attracted to children and are preadolescent children at greater risk of molestation from homosexual adults than from heterosexual adults? There is no reason to believe so. The research to date all points to there being no significant relationship between a homosexual lifestyle and child molestation. There appears to be practically no reportage of sexual molestation of girls by lesbian adults, and the adult male who sexually molests young boys is not likely to be homosexual (Groth & Gary, 1982, p. 147).
In a later literature review, Dr. Nathaniel McConaghy (1998) similarly cautioned against confusing homosexuality with pedophilia. He noted, "The man who offends against prepubertal or immediately postpubertal boys is typically not sexually interested in older men or in women" (p. 259).
Homofascists can't just be happy for the royals on their new baby they have to politicize the occasion to bring attention back to their pet cause.
