Yes.

Why am starting to think that you are lying because it is inconvenient to your worldview that some things are outside your ability to choose?

Do you choose what foods you find repulsive and which ones you find delectable? If so, then why not choose to find the healthiest foods delectable and unhealthy foods like ice cream and cake to be repulsive?

Because you have a hard time believing you don't have all the answers.

I don't find any foods repulsive, and I generally control what I eat. Not all of us are slaves to primal instincts......
 
Compulsive behavior is behavior performed without the choice of the performer.

Without choice? I don't feel I have to have sex with someone of the same sex. I could remain celibate or I could have sex with someone of the opposite sex while fantasizing about someone of the same sex. I'm not compelled against my will to have sex with people of the same sex. That is who I find arousing and so I do. Not really any different than a heterosexual person. They could remain cellibate or have sex with someone of the same sex while fantasizing about someone of the opposite sex.

Then being a homosexual is not compulsive....it's a choice....for you.

Then you, my friend, are making a choice.

Interesting.

In theory, if you were not Christian, could you choose by the same process to be homosexual rather than heterosexual?

If I don't choose who I find sexually arousing, then how could I choose to be homosexual?

Of course there is a choice. I choose a behavior based upon how I feel. However how I feel is what makes me homosexual not what I do. Or do you argue who I do and do not find sexually aruosuing is irrelevant to my sexual orientation?

I could choose to live life as a homosexual.

Is sexual attraction to men all that makes you attracted to the lifestyle?
 
No, I'm not. Not really.

Yeah, really. Homosexual behavior is a choice, in the same way any action is a choice. But one does not choose to feel a sexual impulse, and one cannot choose which sex to direct ones sexual attraction. Being a homosexual is not a choice, even though acting on it is a choice.

I understand this. I was just going along with what CT was saying to see where he would go with it.
 
I could choose to live life as a homosexual.

I have a step daughter who chose to live life as a homosexual at 43 yrs old. After two heterosexual marriages and 3 children and a grand child.
Her mother asked her if she thought she was born like that...and she said no I couldnt have been. I never gave it a thought until she met her live in girlfriend at work....

Interesting. Let me specify it since we have different definitions of the term "homosexual".

Could you choose, through that process, to find men sexually attrative and arousing and women not sexually attractive and arousiing?
 
Is sexual attraction to men all that makes you attracted to the lifestyle?

Pretty much. I hate gay culture. In fact, I don't like most gay people.

I haven't tried, so I can't honestly answer that question.

Or she is bisexual.

I dont know to be honest....this is what I do know. Her girlfriend or partner please dont accuse me of being hateful here I dont know exactly what the appropriate politically correct terms are...I just talk like I talk in real life ok....
Her girlfriend is younger by a few years and "APPEARS" to have total control over here...her facebook page has changed dramatically..and there were postings on it by her gf telling her to take this off and that off the page. She lives full time with here she has left her husband and kids in a lurch.
She just got the homosexual tatoo on the back of her neck and posted it on her facebook page. Sounds to me like full blown homosexuality tome

Interesting. So you really do not know whether or not people can choose who they find sexually attractive or arousing?

Why do you choose to define homosexuals by their behavior instead of by how they feel? Do you believe that the factors of sexual attraction and arousal are irrelevant to a person's sexual identity?

Her first husband was no good...but shes been married to the second husband a long time and hes a great guy...good provider good dad, gave her everything she wanted. She even admits that he was a good guy....My wife and her our other daughters and son believe the live in gf is controlling her...she has a very dominant temperament

You believe mind control, changes in facebook, and tatoos are aspects of homosexuality?

Maybe this link will give you insight in what has happened with your daughter.

Sigh no...I dont believe she is being mind controlled...I believe her girlfriend is the dominant personality and has influence over her. She got the tatoo at the behest of her girlfriend and that whole thing played out on her facebook page. Now I have to ask you...you dont think getting a homosexual tatoo is an apect of homosexuality ??? then you need to explain to me what the hell you think it is
