Can sexuality be changed?

[Deanis]

Ohhh....in that case Levesque, my bad!

Gikoku also thought this.

So in that case, no Dave is still gay and believes he pretty much has been since he was able to determine love interests etc.

I'm talking about Zubayr, who hasnt posted in this thread yet.

 

[Brawny]

Yeah, the Anglican church has elected gay bishops and priests. I'd assume that means they've deemed homosexuality okay now?

It's usually said that being gay is fine, having sex with men is not. Those Bishops are sworn to celibacy, like the rest of them.

Aren't those the same bishops that fondle little boys...?

Yeah. Not like I'm condoning it. Don't judge Christianity on its followers...

I see... kinda.

Please don't tell me you think all gay bishops are paedophiles...

Tell that to some of my fellow atheists.

Well everyone has temptations once in a while, it's the acting on it that makes the difference.

I'm pretty sure most Christians are fine with gay guys who fake it and marry and have kids and such.

Nah, I'm not that narrow-minded.

I said that because Brawny said "it is said that being gay is fine, but having sex with men is not". I'm sure any Bishop who takes that too seriously is probably inspired to be one of the pedophiles.

The fuuck?

Zubayr's told me personally that the idea of thinking of a guy sexually now makes him sick. He used to be all for it, and now hates it.

Change Levesque, change.

Unless youre going off the whole "you can be born gay" clause.

In which case it still stands, he believed he was born gay, and is now straight. Either way his sexuality changed.

No no, I use Zubayr as evidence that I'm right. Because the fact is, he's so confused about his sexuality he doesn't know what he is. This whole process of trying to make him straight has brainwashed him into thinking that homosexuality is wrong, and that any male-male sexual act is disgusting. Be that as it may, he still feels attracted to the opposite sex. So while you can teach someone to believe that something is wrong, you don't change their sexuality. It just leads to self-loathing and depression. And if you actually knew anything about this topic, which you don't, you'd know that this is SUCH a common thing.

There are "ex-gay" clinics, especially in America, which are notorious for driving people to depression and self-loathing, but not changing their sexuality. So while many people try to change others, and basically every gay person (including myself) has tried to change themselves, it doesn't work.

It's usually said that being gay is fine, having sex with men is not.

Sounds familiar...

I'd never follow circular logic with the core of my being.

That's Catholicism, those men are peadophiles not homosexuals, and go against everything religion stands for.

Err... if they sleep with little boys wouldn't they be homosexual paedophiles?

Not really. At that age everything's so underdeveloped, it doesn't really matter whether you sleep with a boy or girl, they'd more or less act the same way.

^Point taken, but LOL you better choose wisely who you tell that to.

 

[Twilight Hero]

I think we should all listen to Brawny.

 

[redneck E]

I am sure that I am going to catch so much **** for this............I was raised to think that homosexuality is wrong. To this day I still believe that, but have an open mind fore someone to tell me why it isn't.
