garysher;

They make a lot more sense than trying to justify homosexuality because some people have long fingers are because some penguins are gay!

do you have anything to offer the class other than ridiculous twisting of words? the argument has never been that simple.

Some facts are so blatantly obvious instinctively that no amount of "scientific" blather, concocted in desperation, will overturn them.

like the fact that homosexuality is intrinsic to the individual ? or the fact that reparative therapy is a fraud ?

The dysfunctionality of homosexuality is one of those facts. Water is wet is another.

the earth is flat is another. and that it is impossible to build a machine that can fly. and that women are less intelligent than men, and that the earth is the centre of the universe. these were once all so obvious they went unchallenged. how wrong those people were.

BTW, it is possible for something to be wet with substances other than water. water is wet, if it is in its liquid state (steam and ice are not wet) but wetness is more complex than just being covered in water, and some things are water repellant.

my opinion is that your christian faith encourages you to see the world in black and white. christianity is like that in my experience. this is not a criticism, but an observation (actually, an opinion). i think it explains why you find it easier to break things down into right and wrong rather than see them as equal but different variations.
