What do you think about this one?

Never came across this argument before. I get his point but I'm going to need more than a four minute video to persuade me. I need more context. Probably should buy the book...

Mail him your book and tell him to send you a copy of his.  :)

Alternatively, you could buy him a copy of mine and buy me a copy of his. Then all three of us would be smarter and happier...

I stopped calling them "a homosexual" years ago.  To do so implies that this "choice" is not their own.  There are only men and women who choose to become sodomites or lesbians.  (Yes, I am aware of those who become that way through sexual abuse)

Words do have meaning and just because a word didn't exist until 150 years ago means little.  *WHO* created the word and their intent IS important.
 
I don't use the word "homosexual" I say, that one right there got a lil sugar in his tank.
 
A person is born with his sexual orientation and attraction.  I knew from a very early age that I identify as a man who is a lover of women.  For those of you who believe that sexual attraction is a choice, I have a word that describes you: bisexual.

1.  Not everyone is born with sexual attraction.
2.  a "bisexual" is just one so filled with lust that they will have sex with any human.
3.  There are Eunuchs and the church should embrace this and not degrade them so they either find acceptance in the sodomite community or force into a marriage that is unfulfilling for both partners just to look normal.
4.  The word to use to describe one taken in this abomination is sodomite.

#1:  True.  The word is asexual.  A person is born this way.
#2:  Negative:  A bisexual is attracted to both sexes.  A person is born this way.
#3:  Huh?  What?
#4:  The use of the phrase "this abomination" constitutes a pronoun without a proper antecedent.  The word to describe this is ignorant.

The antecedent was understood to be the word "homosexual", as carried down through the thread.

You aren't grading term papers here, professor.

earnestly contend

I thought the poster meant that "sexual attraction" was an abomination.

I believe I've heard some preachers preach that.

Not according to the latest studies - it is being shown that the statement is a myth.

Since you ask...

A report published on Aug 22, 2016 in the journal The New Atlantis challenges the leading narratives that the media has pushed regarding sexual orientation and gender identity. Co-authored by two of the nation?s leading scholars on mental health and sexuality, the 143-page report discusses over 200 peer-reviewed studies in the biological, psychological, and social sciences, painstakingly documenting what scientific research shows and does not show about sexuality and gender. The major takeaway, as the editor of the journal explains, is that ?some of the most frequently heard claims about sexuality and gender are not supported by scientific evidence.?  Here's one:  ?The belief that sexual orientation is an innate, biologically fixed human property?that people are born that way?is not supported by scientific evidence.

Feel free to look up the report.

First: I won?t challenge the report.

Second:  I won?t ask if articles in the journal are pro-evolution and/or pro- big bang.  If they are, then I presume that you subscribe to those points of view, also.

Third:  To the topic at hand, the logical conclusion to your argument is, then, that none of us has an innate attraction to either sex.  Which implies, then, that any of us could just as easily be sexually aroused by either sex.

But that then begs the question as to how any of us becomes sexually aroused at all?

And what about the "other" animal kingdom (i.e., dogs, cats, etc.)

Hence, according to the logic of the article, homosexuality is just as normal as heterosexuality.

DO YOU REALLY BELIEVE THAT?
