The Gay Conspiracy

by @ 12:59 pm. Filed under Uncategorized

For those of you who occasionally enjoy perusing comments on rightwing blogs, this exchange on Althouse:

The gay rights crowd is terrified of finding out that homosexuality is the result of some easily corrected genetic defect.

gahrie,

That is something the gay rights crowd is fundamentally terrified about. If there is a ‘Gay gene”, even if only turned on with certain environmental situations, that gene can be tested for. And if it can be tested for it can be chosen to be aborted or not used for fertilization just likes Downs syndrome. If there is no ‘gay geme’ then being Gay is a lifestyle choice not something that they are born with and so could be “cured”. A huge problem for the entire gay culture.

    Amazing. The imagination of these rightwing bloggers is incredible. It is a shame that such talent is wasted on tyranny instead of science fiction.

    It matters not a whit whether gay is a gene or a choice. The truth is that all are equal in well regulated peaceful pursuit of happiness. If you wish to marry the consenting adult of your choice, you must offer and secure that privilege for all.

    There is no gender in all.

    Something tells me they’ve never taken basic genetics.

    I found the exchange bizarre on so many points I really didn’t know where to start.

    Like the part about gay abortion (apparently being gay is just like having Downes Syndrome). Though I guess this would be a dilemma for the anti-abortion, anti-gay crowd.
