If I may, one counter argument that has been forming is that all non-hetero, perverse sex (BDSM, pedophilia, bestiality, and such) originates in non-consensual sex. Throw in abortion and/or STD and society has one more basket case it is not capable of healing.
Consensual sex later on in life is a contract between two people to either recreate or treat that original rape. Like goslings imprinting on their mother, the original act will shape the person’s life without a stronger, correcting force. People seek that force, but turn away from the Christian church in favor of paganism, witchcraft, Buddhism – religions that promise personal power over others – a power they didn’t have when they were raped. The few studies that seem to indicate this meet with suppression.
Ignoring all the rape causes "non-hetero perverse sex" BS, I may not be Buddhist, but that is not how Buddhism works.
Edit: Found this little gem:
LaBarbera: We need to work on our conservative, alternate media and say, ‘look, don’t do the pro-gay thing, why don’t you rather step out and support these ex-gays?’ We should encourage Fox News to tell their stories. Fox is now telling the stories of black conservatives because the other media is not doing that, we should all get on Fox and say, ‘come on, tell these stories, these wonderful stories of happy men and women who have left the homosexual lifestyle.’
Scarborough: Peter, the whole issue of a class action lawsuit, you and I have talked about this a little bit. I just wonder if you’ve explored that, talked to anyone about it. Obviously, statistically now even the Centers for Disease Control verifies that homosexuality much more likely leads to AIDS than smoking leads to cancer. And yet the entire nation has rejected smoking, billions of dollars are put into a trust fund to help cancer victims and the tobacco industry was held accountable for that. Any thoughts on that kind of an approach?
LaBarbera: Yeah I think that’s great. I would love to see it. We always wanted to see one of the kid in high school who was counseled by the official school counselor to just be gay, then he comes down with HIV. But we never really got the client for that.
I wonder why not? I mean, I was
TOTALLY counseled to be gay. I mean, wasn't everyone?
