Am I really speaking for you? You said yourself you choose men over women. Thats what being gay is right?Btw a preference is a choice. <a class="user" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preference">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preference</a>"It assumes a real or imagined "choice" between alternatives and the possibility..."What is to know about being gay? You like the gender of the same sex. That was hard. Your jumping to the conclusion that I want to change you. That is not the case here. Be GAY all day for all I care. My argument here is that IF there is a gay gene it would have breded it's way out of existence a long time ago. So being gay can not be genetic and therefor must be a choice.

No, I don't think all leadership is corrupt - just that the fathers (the real leaders in the programs) involved in boy scouts that I've seen have typically been looking out primarily for their kid and pretending that their kid is "the leader".Want to teach kids that age leadership -- do it in a program that doesn't involve a small percentage of their fathers as the actual leaders.

I agree with that, I am an assistant scoutmaster, and have gone back to summer camp. There are still a few kids that are f**king awesome, but most are little s**t heads.

Yes, no one said that all gay people are pedophiles. But if your sex of choice in little children happen to be the same sex as you, then not only are you a pedophile but you are also a GAY pedophile! .... Hence he's gay, along with being a pedophile.Just sayin

I just find it funny how all of these religious nut jobs tend to turn out to be what they are so against. This seems to happen a lot... We are going to have to start assuming that republicans and priests are gay pedophiles apparently.

What a dumb ass.. and I'm sure the one who said that is probably gay themselves according to this alarming trend
