Not to put down the feelings of "children", but "I like this person" is not the same as deep passion, commitment and adult sexual attraction. To put it bluntly, two boys may jerk each other off but that doesn't mean they are gay, just horny. If you are a guy and you think of hot, sweaty sex and the taste and the feel and you think of a girl, then you are not gay. If you think of a guy, then you are. It's just that simple. When you think about what two guys actually do, if that turns you on and you are a guy, then you are gay. Who could choose?

The problem in this country is that the Fundagelical right has taken a normal part of being human and turned it into a "sin".

As a living, breathing creature, everything you think about on a gut level can be divided into two categories, "survival" and "reproduction". If you fall into the water, you fight to swim up because you want to live. We recognize that people that want to die are sick.

Second is reproduction. Even if you don't want kids, the sex "urge" is still there. Nature has made sex feel so good that some people even become addicted to it. This guarantees that people have sex. It's all about "survival of the species".

One of the many problems with the Fundies is that they have taken sex and made it "dirty" and a "sin". Somehow, they believe that if you don't make sex dirty, everyone will be having orgies as if they have no will power or self respect.
It's the same argument they use with "atheism". What's to keep you from murder and rape and stealing if you don't believe in threats from a magical God.
