There are several claims that we frequently hear from conservative homophobes, so let's see where they lead us:

1) Gays are depraved, pervert and degraded, they are comitting a sin.
2) Gays shouldn't be allowed to raise children, because they'd spread their depravity to the next generations.
3) Gays don't procreate, therefore they don't contribute with anything to population growth, which is a violation of the main function of the family that God gave us.

If we're to follow the logic in these three statements, I'd ask why would anyone want such depraved, pervert and degraded people to procreate, and spread their depravity to the next generations. You can't both have the gays contribute to population growth AND eliminate the spreading of depravity, can you?

So, what do conservative homophobes really value more - piety, or procreation? If it's the latter, then aren't they encouraging the spreading of debauchery? If it's the former, then aren't they mocking God's intention for the union between man and woman?

Of course, all of what I'm saying would be valid, unless we assume gays can't change and become "normal" (!?) again. But, unlike the reversed (the actual coming out of gays as such), I've yet to see any gay woman or man turning straight. Have you?

Homophobes aren't too bright, are they?

I read an exchange of letters elsewhere by 2 members of the LGBTQ community, one of whom is an online acquaintance. These letters were written in response to a creative-writing instructors banning gay characters, among other petty things, from her institution. I then tried registering on her website, and received an email from her stating that my registration didn't go through and that she'd be glad to help me. So then I responded to her with an open letter of my own, inquiring about their discriminatory policy of banning people based on their sexuality, and apparently, ability. Her response? "Oh, we ban gay characters but not gays themselves." Turns out they also ban things like fantasy. C'mon now people this is America, the land of the free. I guess not according to some.
