    No one has ever proven it's not genetic. The fact that pretty much every gay person claims its genetic, and the fact that random teens and whatnot have killed themselves over being shamed because of it is the only thing we have to go on.

    I don't think it matters why people are gay. Choice or not choice, I don't think the government should do anything special for anyone and I don't think I need to know.

    I don't care what gays do. I won't go to a pride parade. I don't watch Rupauls show unless forced (thanks al) and I don't like techno music.

    I would like if the same gays that say its something they were born would respect that straight is something I'm born with instead of making eyes at me or hitting on me at the gym.

    Right. Human sexuality is pretty complex stuff. Certain genes may be involved but we don't know if the genes express themselves in particular environmental conditions or what. The interplay between the two isn't understood at the momment.

    But there is no single gene for anything.
    So science doesn't prove how we procreate? That's still a theory for you?

    We know it hasn't been proven to be genetic or natural yet the far left makes false comparisons to race and gender every day in their arguments for gay marriage.

    That said, "far left" regimes were traditionally moralisitic. Homosexuals were marginalized in the Eastern Bloc, for example, and among western Marxists as well. In fact, they sounded a lot like the family values conservatives we see today in the US. Things began to change only after the great compromise (i.e. when central planning was abandoned and a limited market accepted in return for a robust welfare state). The left has abandoned its original base (i.e. the western working classes).
    By "far left" I think he's just referring to American progressives.

    LOL. You just proved my point.

    The fact that pretty much every gay person claims its genetic, and the fact that random teens and whatnot have killed themselves over being shamed because of it is the only thing we have to go on.
    Their reasoning for killing themselves is pure speculation by you. Why should I change the law when you've admitted there is no evidence being gay is natural or genetic any more than people who make any other life choice?

    You cannot prove a negative.

    It matters because it goes to the heart of the arguments used for gay marriage which they claim is a "right" falsely equating it to the true civil rights movement which was based on race and gender. Since they cannot prove it to be anything more than a choice there is no reason to change the law and set up special privilege for their specific lifestyle over all other lifestyles that we ban from being married.

    No, it proves nothing. You're conflating facts with doing science.


    Your argument seems to be not proving something proves something.
