The Irony of Being Gay


If homosexuality is neither a normal nor a healthy lifestyle as I believe, then the most loving thing we can do is to help them seize this general picture and offer them our help and encouragement. Most people in our society nowadays deem that homosexuality is hale and hearty and are acceptable alternative means. This debate over the ACCEPTANCE of homosexuality in our culture is one that has been clouded with many misrepresentations and inaccuracy. These falsifications include the assertion that all competent psychologists believe that homosexuality is a healthy routine in which they were born that way and that sexual preference cannot be changed as expected by many.

Comments like these are commonly heard when the topic of homosexuality comes up for discussion. The debate over homosexuality and homosexual rights has steadily grown over the past two decades and has continued to do so.

In the course of this dispute, however, numerous party line, fallacies and overt propaganda have been disseminated to the public as an uncontested truth. It is the principle of this exposure to examine these claims and separate fact from fiction. Before anyone can give intelligent and compassionate answers, the questions must be clarified and brought into focus and our own query is “How should we respond?”

Most people might have said that the most loving act one can do is to point out that an abnormality exists and help can be offered. This needs to be done — but not in a spirit of condemnation — with HOMOSEXUALITY.
