		<description>Quote: First off, homosexuality is not a disease.
Answer: Genetic mutation .. JUST like cystic fibrosis or muscular dystrophy. They have shown there is a correlation between left handedness and and cleft palate.

&quot;Canadian Scientists Find More Homosexuals Left-Handed&quot;

&quot;A new study by physician researchers from Hasbro Children&#039;s
Hospital and Children&#039;s Hospital Boston has identified an
increased prevalence in left-handedness in children with a
congenital disorder known as hemifacial microsomia (HFM).&quot;

That is a LISP.

&quot;Non-syndromic cleft lip and palate: Could stress be a causal factor?&quot;

THAT means OXIDATION / rust.

&quot;Our findings are the first to suggest that laterality of clefts does have a differential effect on brain structure and related behavior,&quot; 
 
THAT means kinda .. mental.

Rust / oxidation causes genetic mutation CLOSELY resembling homosexuality.</description>

		<description>Tom, you are either joking, or are barking mad. First off, homosexuality is not a disease. Second, how would you explain the fact that many vegetarians/vegan couples have gay offspring who themselves aren&#039;t meat eaters?

Time for you to get back to your medication, methinks.</description>

		<description>Quote:â€˜If God considers gays and abomination why did he create them?â€™
Answer: Actually the word abomination is another way of saying a **genetic mutation**. The phrase genetic mutation didn&#039;t exist in those days. The REASON there are homosexuals is because man decided to kill and eat animals. The RESULT of homosexuality and other diseases are not CAUSED BY but as result OF mans&#039; OWN refusal to follow orders.The ONLY treatment at one time for disorganized hormones was iron reduction therapy. The iron from the meat we eat / sin causes homosexuality. Believe it or not.</description>

		<description>As usual, the theists stop at nothing to stifle free speech.  Could it be that rational thinking and free speech are fatal to theists?  

One would think with all their prating about morals and truth, they would be different, but it seems that we have to evaluate them by what they do, not by what the say.  That&#039;s a pretty good policy for politicians, theists, and atheists.</description>

		<description>Why are christians so quick to take offense at any supposed slight and so quick to point out anyone else&#039;s faults?  Didn&#039;t their bastard god say something about removing the beam from your eye before pointing out the mote in your neighbors?</description>

		<description>@ Frymaster. The issue isn&#039;t that Christians especially deserve to be offended, it&#039;s that they don&#039;t especially deserve not to be offended, however much they think they do.

And if the paper was just saying &#039;no offence meant, sorry&#039;, why have they pulled the &#039;offending&#039; article from their website?</description>
