I was listening to the radio on the way home, and I'm in a stage right now where I don't like listening to music, but rather news and talk material. I was not interested in NPR's Iraq stuff, nor was I interested in KRDO's discussion on college boozing.

So as I was flipping through the radio stations, I heard another talk one, and I didn't look at the station signal thing, so I didn't know it, but I had 100.7 on the radio, and what I heard really disappointed me. For those of you that don't know, 100.7 is one of like a billion evangelical radio stations in Colo Sprs. They were talking about how through love and the Bible we can fix people and turn them straight and crap like that. While I'm not gay, I have come to sympathize with them a lot, because they're pretty heavily discriminated against. I don't care about marriage because that's really a religious thing, but I really don't mind them having equal partnership rights as straight couples, and I really do not mind them having adopted children. I actually favor them having adopted children, because I think that it's first important that children have stable loving homes, and I could care less who the parents or guardians are, so long as they are not hardened criminals or incompetent to do so.

I think my scientific mind understands that gay people are born that way, and that no matter how you treat them, you cannot destroy their fundamental biology. Any insinuation that one can use eugenics to fix them is one of the pinnacles of evil. That baptist preacher who said we can use science to fix them is abhorrent. How selfish is it to reserve that technology, not to try to find treatments for things like Down's Syndrome, but rather to fix gay children?

Then there was an article in the paper today baout how 20-40% of teens on the streets are either gay, bi, or transgendered. What kind of parent would let their child do that, or even worse, throw them out of their homes because they're not straight? Where is the morality that these people preach? Sounds like hypocracy to me.

My soapbox for today. Time for Civil War
