Whatever the reason for homosexuality, it will be no different in cause or causes than five thousand years ago or two million years ago: And no doubt into the future homosexuals will continue to exist alongside, the normal in society.

What is changing, particularly in liberal Democracies, is the power of its peculiar tribe to forcibly impose its values attributable to its narrow belief system, onto the vast majority of normal society.

Forcing tolerance of it by dictate is not helpful or necessary. Defending from its imposition is in fact, more than obviously necessary.
The calls for a religious bill of rights, proves the cart now travels before the horse.

The unequal power of the rainbow flag needs to be curtailed. Politicians have gifted the nonsense of it a free ride for far too long, to the point where homosexuality is elevated to a religion with more rights than traditional cultural religions such as Christianity.

And one more thing.
No one comes back to life.
Once the brain ceases to function, and degrades physically beyond a certain point, it cannot be reactivated.
But I think the 'degrading physically' stage can vary a great deal.
There are those who have been (wrongly) declared dead, and yet awoken the day after.
(as happened in a case reported in the news some years ago)
It is thus quite reasonable to assume that someone who 'comes back to life' was, in fact, not dead in the first place.
There must have been sufficient oxygen etc, getting to where it was needed, to keep the brain, and other body parts, 'alive'.
It might appear to be a 'miracle' to those who are impressionable, and wanting it to be that way, but I think the truth is otherwise.

Diver Dan,

So long as the homosexuals are not harming innocent people and don't impinge on you, why do you care what they do? I find that Rainbow Flag stuff mildly irritating, and especially the transexuals with their pronouns and demands to participate in women's sports, but it is a minor irritation in the wider scheme of things. I don't believe that people choose to be homosexual. Let them live their lives with what happiness that they can find and you live yours.

Well said, Divergence. Dan seems overly obsessed with homosexuality? Almost like he himself is thus afflicted and needs to butch it up and persecute difference to prove he is not like them?

Dan reminds me of a story Sir Richard Bramston tells about a highly placed, flat earth society official, who he invited on a trip on his low orbit space craft.

The official accepted and as they ascended, with a round globe appearing in the porthole where the official was glued. Whereupon landing, Sir Richard enquired, and what do you think now?

Well, replied the official, the graphics were almost believable as were the special effects and walked away refusing the evidence of his onw eyes!

Dan, like the aforementioned, has no interest in contrary evidence? Given that is so, seems to be, just another fanatic, willing to persecute those unfortunate enough to be born different!

And given what the poor bastards have to tolerate from others, who would actually choose to be gay? And explains the high suicide rate among young homosexuals unable to accept their normal God given sexual bias?

We didn't knot the rope they swung from, but those who persecute those born different may as well have and will need to face their own ultimate justice and Divine judgement!

DD should get together WITH SM, he's obsessed with paedophilia, they could compare notes. Is it a religious thing?

Let's talk about heterosexuals and homosexuals.
Everyone else seems to be.

What is a person?
A person is the output of a computer program, running in what we call a brain.
We cannot ordinarily see or hear a brain 'running'.
And the brain couldn't exist by itself.
So it needs an interface, which will enable it to interact with the physical world.
This is where the body comes in.
The body is a support system, a reproductive system, a communication system, etc.

We cannot change the basic program in the brain?
And were that program all we were, our existence would be very limited.
Luckily, we have the ability to observe and remember stuff.
And we can use that 'stuff' to plan ahead. (reasoning)
This nicely expands our activities.

The sex drive is a function of the body, and develops as the body grows and changes.
Who that drive is directed towards is a function of the brain, and cannot be changed?
Some are sexually 'attracted' to those of the same sex.
Heterosexuals produced these persons, and they should be accommodated in society like all others.

There are many different kinds of people born.
Some have an extremely capable brain.
Some have physical differences which limit their activities. (disabilities)
Some have a different sexual orientation.
Only those who are unable to restrain themselves from being harmful should be thought of as undesirable.

Rejecting difference means a natural instinct is at work.
But we should use reason to overcome that, and accept difference as natural and needed?
Whatever way people are born, all can contribute usefully to our world.
And the world works better when stupid persons don't try to impede those who are born with difference.
Whatever our inclination, we must behave in a grown up way, and use reason to direct our actions.
