Homosexuality: Birthright or Choice?

Posted by John 14:6 On July - 1 - 2009

qmarkWith all the recent happenings in the United States surrounding “gay rights” and “gay marriage”, I wanted to express my own feelings on this issue. I have some very strong feelings about this one, as I’m sure a lot of folks do. Let me state my position unequivocally so that everyone understands where I am coming from.

  1. Homosexuality is not a birthright, it is a choice
  2. Homosexuality is an abomination in the eyes of God
  3. Homosexuality is unnatural and defies the core essentials of nature as man understands it
  4. Homosexuality is a defilement of marriage, as God has defined it

Ok, now that my position is clear, let me go through each of my above points more thoroughly.

1. Homosexuality is not a birthright, it’s a choice. There is a very simple and logical reason this is true, and if you sincerely consider this, all will be made clear. I get so tired of hearing the homosexual groups and lobbies cry “Why would we choose to do something that causes us to be hated and discriminated against?”.  The question is a strawman. People choose destructive and anti-social behaviors all the time.  That defense is not a defense in any sense, it’s just a way to deflect the argument. People choose to cheat on their spouse, experiment with drugs, and many other things all the time . . . and they know the consequences, they just think they can avoid them.

But that’s not my main point. Here it is:  If anyone on Earth has the same opporunity or abilty to do or perform something, it simply can’t be a birthright. Simply put, since I can go out tomorrow and have a homosexual encounter were I to chose to, there is nothing in this behavior (homosexuality) that cries out it is unique or genetically linked.

I could wake up tomorrow and decide to have sex with a man . . . I cannot – repeat cannot – wake up tomorrow and decide to be Asian or Black, for example, or become seven feet tall, or have my eyes truly change from blue to green or brown. One’s ethnicity is a birthright, who one chooses to have sexual relations with is not. If anyone on earth can do it, you can’t claim it as a birthright. Period. Homosexuality is a choice, a decision to indulge a temptation.

Other than choice of sexual partner, there is not one thing a gay male does any differently than a straight male. Both eat food, shave, wear clothes, watch television, breath, have hobbies, have jobs, exercise, have friends, and the list could go on and on.

And let’s remember – one does not need to have sex to survive. The very act of sex is a choice (and please, no remarks about rape – my point is obvious to anyone with the ability to reason). Both gay and straight individuals go could the rest of their lives without having sex and be alright. To make sexual preference out to be a major aspect of one’s entire person is simply a means homosexual groups use to promote their agenda. It’s not a matter of life and death to have sex. It’s fun, sure, but not a requirement for survival, like, say, food or breathable air.

2. Homosexuality is an Abomination in the Eyes of God. This one is clear to anyone who reads the Bible, but apparently some so-called “Evangelicals” aren’t reading their Bibles (nod to our Glorious Leader on that one). Seriously, anyone – even those who hate Christians or don’t believe a word of Scripture – if they were honest about it – would admit that the God of the Bible is clearly against homosexuality. Both Old and New Testament are clear. I am not going to list the related Scriptures, but I encourage anyone who is wondering to look it up for yourself.

3. Homosexuality is unnatural and defies the core essentials of nature as man understands it. I like to take God completely out of this discussion because I feel it strengths my argument and removes the “I don’t believe in the Christian God” or “My God wouldn’t condemn me for this” excuses.

My first point is to ask, What is the natural process for mammals to reproduce? What is the process? Nature replenishes itself, in the animal kingdom, by the sperm uniting with the egg. It is simple fact that two homosexuals “uniting” cannot do this, and, more importantly, they never have any chance of doing it. Sure, there are heterosexual couples who can’t have children, but they are the exception, not the norm. With homosexuality, it is the opposite. Science clearly will show you that in exactly 100% of all homosexual couples, there is an exactly 0% chance of them naturally procreating.

So if you buy into the “Theory of Evolution” you are left with a gigantic question mark about why homosexuality would have even arisen naturally. It’s a genetic and evolutionary dead-end. Nothing of merit can be passed on. It produces nothing of value for future generations, in fact, it prevents future generations at all. And by the very definition of the evolutionary theory, homosexual should have died out as such a dead-end. Survival of the fittest, as it were. Natural selection.

The whole thing is preposterous to me, honestly. How anyone can even defend the “homosexuality is natural” position is really beyond my desire to understand. Even taking the “Christian God” out of the equation, you still have supposedly “true” evolution defying the very existence of this behavior.

4. Homosexuality is a defilement of marriage as God has defined it. We are seeing this today, as the attack is now in full force to legitimize homosexuality by allowing such couples to marry in the traditional sense. Homosexual behavior is the very antithesis of marriage. God created the institution of marriage very early on in man’s journey here on Earth. It is the very cornerstone of a functional, viable society.

Fabrics such as marriage are essential, and homosexuals know this  . . . why else are they demanding to be included? A “natural” homosexual marriage is eternally childless, and damaging physically to both spouses. Sexual intercourse between a man and a woman is the very definition of natural – so natural in fact that a man’s and woman’s sexual organs happen to compliment each other perfectly. In other words, the primary reason for a penis or vagina is to use with other gender’s sexual organ.

Anyone should be able to admit that with even the smallest assembly of common sense. I am not going to get into the particulars of homosexual encounters, but it is far from normal and the parts do not naturally fit together.

I know parts of this have been somewhat crude, but the truth is simply the truth. People will do anything and say anything to justify their own behaviors. That’s what homosexuality is, a behavior. An indulgence of a temptation. It is not a birthright. Anyone could choose to do it – me, you, my wife, anyone could have this experience tomorrow with a simple choice.

Now the good news.

Homosexuality is no greater a sin than lying, stealing, adultery, or worshipping false idols. They are all equal in God’s sight. And as they are all equal, homosexuality is just as forgiveable as any other sin. Being a homosexual does not condemn you to hell. Refusing to surrender this sin to Jesus and continuing on in it is what condemns one to hell, as it does with any other sin. Believe it or not, there are many, many people who have been delivered from this sin and now live happy, healthy heterosexual lives.

I believe homosexuality is a temptation like any other. My temptation is pornography, with others it is lying, or stealing, or drinking too much. They are all sins, but they are all forgiveable with God. And God can and will deliver you from them. I have personally never met a 60 year old homosexual who is happy . . . same goes for a 60-year-old drunkard, porn addict, or thief.

Sin wears on you. It eats away at you. It takes the joy out of you.

Jesus is waiting to forgive you, cleanse you, and give you His Strength to make you whole. All you need to do is ask, repent, and turn from your sins. Regardless of where you are in your life, Jesus is just outside the door. All it takes is for you to call out. I pray that you do.

God bless and keep you all.
