Sorry, but you are wrong. I am sure that all 3 reasons you list are held by many people, but they are ridiculous and irrational views based on prejudice and preconcpetions.

[/ QUOTE ] for the record, I never said I felt that way,

And there is nothing wrong with idealism. Lots of points of view that were considered "idealistic" a while back are now commonplace.

I don't think homosexuality is sinful, nor a defect, nor a choice.

[/ QUOTE ]

From a purly scientific point of view, this is plain wrong.

[/ QUOTE ]

So you believe that people choose to be gay? Why the heck would someone choose to be gay in such a homophobic world?

[/ QUOTE ]

I think you misinterpreted, Dead. I believe original poster is referring to defect in genes. He is not talking about choice, and in any case, seems to agree with what you said.

[/ QUOTE ] well... I will just agree to disagree with you. IMO, Idealism is equal to putting on the blinders, sorry. And that was not meant as an attack on you.

Cracka I don't care.

You made some comment that had nothing to do with my post about how if a guy sucked a dude's dick for free than he's bi or certainly gay. I would agree that it's probably true. But 1 million dollars can make people do things that they normally wouldn't do.

How can you call it a defect? From a purely JackWilson point of view, that is plain wrong.

EDIT: As for the topic of the thread - I'm never having children so...

Wacki, you are just digging yourself a deeper and deeper hole. That's all I am going to say.

Everything I said in my post is 100% true.

I'm sorry do we need to look up Nazi in wikipedia again?

You constantly attack what I say, but you know I my facts are 100% correct.

[/ QUOTE ]

Huh? I don't doubt any of those facts. I don't doubt that sexually abusing a child will make them more likely to have sexual dysfunctions later in life, but homosexuality is not a dysfunction.

What exactly are you saying?

I realize that most of the posters in this forum are young, and probably will never procreate. But hypothetically, if you had a son and on his 18 birthday he told you that he was gay, how would you react internally? I am more asking how you would feel, not what you would say to your son. Would you feel disappointed, confused, indifferent?

[/ QUOTE ]

I would be unaffected. I would be so busy looking for the real father, I would not have time to worry.

I would be a little worried about how to tell him that we still can't find his real father, but we will keep trying.

He might be shocked and hurt because he might feel I should have told him sooner that I wasn't his real father, but I was just trying to protect him.
