Hello all!
I strongly urge never speaking about the two (hetero and homo) as though
they are somehow comparable or indifferent to Adam's fall. Heterosexuality
is ontological and good, homosexuality is fallen Adam reaping consequences
of the fall. If we wish to attribute homosex. to genetics, we must also
assert it is an injury of iniquity upon the physical nature of man to be
abhorred, healed, untwisted, and overcome.

at being 'other than they are' but this does not often last long and IS
the kind of thing that therapy can remediate. Blessings. GDVW+
