Just so you know, Richard Cohen is a conversion therapist who has been widely disgraced and discredited. He was expelled from the ACA for ethics violations.

the cure for homosexuality is of course, lots of homosexual sex. You're welcome.
 
Let me posit a different question: Let's say a gene is identified that, if active, leads to homosexuality. Would it be wrong or unethical to universally modify that gene so that future generations will never have it?

Sounds an awful lot like mind control to me.

Keep trying. It may take a few hundred years.

Let's posit an even DIFFERENT QUESTION: Let's say a gene is identified that, if active, leads to "spiritual belief" in some theological universal being. Would it be wrong or unethical to universally modify that gene so that future generations will never have it?

I kinda like this game.

Okay, not two minutes in and there's the argument about "sexual predators".

Why is it that news from the USA almost always make me want to beat someone's face to a table?

Would it be wrong to switch it on in everyone to control population growth?

I always wonder, taking religion aside (don't consider it in this equation) why even bother "curing" homosexuals if it does exist? why can people let them be happy in their own way? Do human have to fear what they don't understand to a level to "kill it with fire" type of thing? If people are seeking help on their own, then help them, but if they are happy in their sexual lives (legal of course) then let them be.

Edit: Richard Cohen is not making sense. ex-homosexuality? I am thinking it is more he is homo-curious. I think he is speaking BS.

Heh... former homosexual.

If a dog is trained to walk on two legs, it doesn't make him a man. He's just a dog who's been trained to act like a man.

Wow. I never thought of that.

I might actually be in favor of this.

CNN is just trying to ramp up discussions. They are essentially trolling the Cable Channels for an audience. Shock the left with this guy's BS or titillate the right with this guy's BS.

I understand, but it's a disturbing trend (and I know it's not really particularly new, but this was a very recent, pretty personally offensive example to me) of the media presenting two sides as equals and letting the viewer decide in an effort to be fair rather than reporting facts. What's next, getting a Holocaust denier and a Israeli ambassador to talk about whether the Holocaust really happened? It's not journalism.

Journalism has nothing to do with 95% of the stuff on cable news. The channels are too slanted and merely pander to whichever group with which they associate. To top it off, with a 24 hour news cycle and so much competition, they are replacing tough questions from real reporters with Twitter feeds from @imadipshit and blog posts from some schmuck in his mom's basement.

I think it would be infinitely funny if they tried to scientifically tried to find a cure for homosexuality and found that being a white heterosexual male was an aberration from the genetic norm and was curable. I mean, I don't understand homosexuality but I also don't understand how people can eat liver. And homosexuals who eat liver are just freaks.

But homosexuality is not a genetic illness to be cured.

Wait... was there a time when cable news was journalism?[/QUOTE]

Yup 24/7 cable news is not journalism. There's about 15 minutes worth of journalism each day on the news networks; the rest is lovely, lovely filler.

Pro-debator: UR ONE OF DEM NAAGGGERRRR LOVERS AINTCHA!??!?!?

The pro side would literally be a member of the KKK

At the end, the CNN anchor would say "Well, clearly there's a lot to talk about with this issue. Moving on..."

...and are they really from the future, and should we all turn gay to prevent it from happening?[/QUOTE]

MY GOD! It's all come full circle! Shipping Blacks out to Africa is creating a job void here in America which is being filled by Mexicans- who are from the future - causing a epigenetic switch to trigger activation of the 'gay gene' which in turn causes massive buttfucking outbreaks across the country, and debates over said outbreaks, which then lead to debates over shipping blacks out to Africa!
 
Homosexuality is an illness that totally needs to be cured. I base this on the strong evidence that a man has never come onto me. Thus, it must be unnatural and wrong.

I rest my case, your honor.
 
Show more skin Fun size.
Or grow a biker mustache...

It worked for my Redneck Brother. Even though we told him for years that his mustache was a gay stereotype, he would not believe us. Until 2 guys hit on him in the Automotive Section Wal-Mart (of all places.)

He shaved that night.
