		<description>The Journal Of The Gay And Lesbian Medical Association published a controversial theory claiming the following:
1. Humans do not possess a sexual instinct to engage in heterosexual intercourse.
2. It was the rise in intelligence during evolution that made us lose our sexual instinct.
3. Among other advantages the loss of sexual instinct made monogamy possible in a community setting.
4. Lacking a sexual instinct, neither heterosexuality nor homosexuality is genetic in human beings.
5. There are universal childhood sexual exploration behaviors that - if not checked by society/parents - have the potential to strongly bias the formation of a homosexual orientation development, over a heterosexual one, or a bisexual one.
6. Heterosexuals vastly outnumber homosexuals in the world only because societies, needing to maintain their populations, strongly discourage homosexuality while encouraging heterosexuality!

For the complete theory go to www.humansexualevolution.com.</description>

		<description>[b]Moral dilemna![/b]

 Wazzup! Been lurking for a while and decided to sign up and post.  

 So something has been bugging me for a while now . This is what transpired:   After classes I took the bus, I hadn&#039;t eaten lunch so I took a detour to this fast food joint and ordered a sandwitch and then went off to eat it in a corner after finishing it I realized I had not paid for it!

Yeah evidently they were super busy and distracted because there was this manager/investor type looking around everywhere and talking to them. So I was just about to go up to the counter and say I hadn&#039;t paid but then I realized if I did that the owner guy might get mad at the employees. So I just left. What should I have done do you think?</description>

		<description>Do you believe homosexuality is a sin?  Can you clarify why/why not? Yes, homosexuality is a sin. Why? Because it is against the bible.

Do you know anyone who is(has been) in a same sex relationship? Yes, several.

Have you known anyone when they were first discovering or questioning homosexual feelings? Yes.
 
If you are the member of a church body, do you agree or disagree with the sentiments expressed towards homosexuals in your church? Yes, I am a member of a church, and I do agree with them on the issue that homosexuality is wrong.

If you are a Christian or follower of a particular faith- if someone came to you expressing interest in your faith but was unwilling to leave a homosexual relationship in order to do so, would you still offer to teach them? Yes because they would at least be on the right track. Along the way they would have to realize that what they were doing was wrong whether they wanted to stop it or not.</description>

		<description>First of all,I am a 15 year old Lesbian. :)

1Do you believe homosexuality is a sin?
I don&#039;t believe in God, and I think it is perfectly fine. Love is love,gender shouldn&#039;t matter.

2.Do you know anyone who is(has been) in a same sex relationship?
Yes, Me and a friend.

3.Have you known anyone when they were first discovering or questioning homosexual feelings?
Me. I first came out as bisexual, then realized I didn&#039;t like men anymore. I found it hard, but all of my friends have accepted me. I don&#039;t want the school to know, as I&#039;m not confident yet, though there is a rumour that i&#039;m bi going around.Most people are defending me, saying it&#039;s my choice anyway.I haven&#039;t told my family, even though I think they&#039;ll be ok with it.I&#039;m waiting till i&#039;m older.

4.If you are the member of a church body, do you agree or disagree with the sentiments expressed towards homosexuals in your church?

Not religious

5.If you are a Christian or follower of a particular faith- if someone came to you expressing interest in your faith but was unwilling to leave a homosexual relationship in order to do so, would you still offer to teach them?

Again, not religious, but I think they should allow the person to follow the faith, because isn&#039;t God meant to &#039;Love all his children?&#039; A gay person can be the nicest person in the world, and one of the best followers- is he to be condemned for his sexuality he can&#039;t help?</description>
