@earl-of-trumps saidDon't give yourselves any ideas.
what's to stop people right now from aborting because the fetus is female, like they do in China?
Answer: not a fooking thing
God knows, you're pretty barren of them right now.
@averagejoe1 saidSo, your argument is, "Why stop there? Why not include all the stinking liberals?"
You suggest that the UN-religious left would NOT be keen on a baby that did not fit its proper makeup? You know, to be like you dependents, be totally equal to everyone around them. To be losers, etc? To lean towards socialism, to get stuff from people who have stuff?
You suggest libs would abort such a baby, that did not meet those standards?
I'm just asking here, that is, after all, what you are saying.
That's your answer?
@kevin-eleven saidWhat's with the FMF-style piss-taking?
Christians are not Catholics, though -- they are apostates and heretics. 😉

@metal-brain saidHow can you be so right, and then so wrong, all in the same post?
That is because of epigenetic changes. Being gay might be hereditary and I am open to a gay gene being found, but there are clearly other genetic factors we don't completely understand.

I found this interesting because Lysenko was not entirely wrong, though he never understood why. He was just mostly wrong.

@metal-brain saidSee? You keep doing this right, wrong, right, wrong dance.
What are you talking about? What is "that"?

Puberty can be hastened by factors like touch. That probably triggers epigenetic changes.

There must be someone else in there with you.

@metal-brain saidNo, that's not it.
You have no reason to believe that. Why would it take more than one person to post what I do? Do you think it is impossible for one person to be this informed? Is that it?

@suzianne saidWhat is your opinion?
See? You keep doing this right, wrong, right, wrong dance.

Other than saying I am wrong you have not said what I am wrong about.
You keep doing this ambiguous dance. You just hate everything I stand for so you object to anything in a knee jerk fashion. You don't even know why, do you?
@sonhouse saidThe theologically correct answer is that being born gay is God's way of telling you to live celibately. You don't choose to be gay, but can choose not to act on it. In layman's terms, it's ok to be gay just so long as you don't have sex with anyone of the same gender. Ergo, even if it were possible to know that a certain foetus would grow up to be a gay adult, it should not be aborted; it should be given the chance to live a celibate life and find redemption through Jesus.
Would the religious right be so keen on right to life for THAT fetus?
@metal-brain saidLook here, just because you don't that doesn't mean that I don't.
What is your opinion?

@moonbus
Tell that to the priests who are ALSO supposed to be celibate, the fact is sex is a powerful drive and there is not a thing you can say or do that will change that.
Same drive in straights, gays, bi's and there is nothing on Earth will change that fact.
You might as well stop horses from wanting to eat grass.

@moonbus saidGay people have sex with the opposite sex more often than you think. Why else would there be a hereditary factor? Gay people are obviously reproducing. They cannot do that by having sex with only the same sex.

Gay people are obviously having sexual relations with the opposite sex. The whole notion that they are not reproducing is nonsense. Pure nonsense!

@athousandyoung saidSuch is the way of those who believe in things that have absolutely no proof .
They will say that the test caused the child to become gay and refuse to allow their kids to be tested
