The progressive habit of labeling every human quirk or behavioral predilection as a “disease” or a “disorder” often gives license to those who should modify their behavior, but instead explain it away as something they have no control over. It is not uncommon for someone with a hot temper to explain away their unacceptable outbursts with the explanation that they were just “born that way,” when in fact it is part of the human challenge to control our impulses and to “civilize” ourselves so that we meet the standards of a polite society.
There are times, however, when recognizing a “condition” may be necessary in order to manage it, whether we believe it is a true condition a person was “born” with, or simply an impulse that the person refuses to modify or stifle.
According to one criminal psychologist, paedophilia, or sexual attraction to children, is an “orientation” that child sexual abusers are born with, and cannot change. The proposition is offensive since it diminishes personal responsibility and would seem to classify the rape of a child along with the so-called ‘orientation’.
Is paedophilia controllable, page 2:
Obviously this psychologist must have paedophilia behavior.
Hastert is a PEDOPHILE.
No its not
This is what excepting the ridiculous theory that you’re “born gay” has brought us to.
Sexual preference is exactly that, a preference.
I’ll go one further and say that being gay is a valid preference.
People should be able to love and marry whoever they like as long as that relationship is consensual and appropriate.
I don’t believe it’s a mental illness either. Calling something “an illness” is just an attempt to avoid blaming the perpetrator for making horrible choices.
Strongly disagree with you! Marriage should NOT be used to validate homosexual relationships which are, by their nature, destructive physically, emotionally and spiritually; it is an affront to what God intended marriage to be!
It is demonic like the idiot that said that !
Like addiction is a “disease”. It’s a choice!
BS
The very act repulses me in my gut! Look up the Greek word for “soul”….it tells us that our soul is our likes and our aversions to things in life – even without teaching – WE KNOW IN OUR HEARTS AND SOULS THIS IS SICK AND WRONG!
