Let me tell you about the day I decided to become a heterosexual











:rofl:

What a silly thing to say. I never decided to become a heterosexual, I just started really liking boys in a different way than I liked girls. I can't imagine trying to have a different sexual orientation. What a waste of time that would be. And you know what? I don't think I'm that different than anyone else, whether they started liking boys, girls, or all of the above.

1. You can be cured, you know
I know a good Christian minister who has cured many a heterosexual, who are now leading very normal, very Scriptural lives filled with meaning.

2. It is normal to be homosexual
God prefers it that way. Says so in the Bible.

3. I can identify with that, but in the other direction
Did you ever date someone (or a few someones) of the opposite sex just because of social norms and pressures even though in your heart you felt differently?

8. Oh, a couple of times
But it was a totally different kind of pressure than homophobia.

13. Oh, I didn't mean homophobia
I wasn't aware of any homophobia where I grew up. Well, not any blatant homophobia. It was more like unspoken expectations with little to no idea that homosexuality even existed.

6. No, it's the illogical extreme
It's ridiculous to think of someone choosing to be heterosexual. Yet a large number of folks seem to think that non-heterosexuals make a decision to be homosexual or bisexual.

12. Here you go!

Scroll down a bit and you can see "Warring for Purity." Why is everything war, death and destruction with these people?
