why does it seem like religion does strange things to some people?

amen! praise the lord!
Man, I see this whole "homo-sexuality is a disease to be cured" thing as one of the great blunders of our time.
People will look back and just laugh at how absurd we are. There is more and more evidence beginning to surface that it's mostly pre-determined:
Prenatal hormonal theory
Main article: Prenatal hormones and sexual orientation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prenatal_hormones_and_sexual_orientation)
The neurobiology of the masculinization of the brain is fairly well understood. Estradiol, and testosterone, which is catalyzed by the enzyme 5α-reductase into dihydrotestosterone, act upon androgen receptors in the brain to masculinize it. If there are few androgen receptors (people with Androgen insensitivity syndrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Androgen_insensitivity_syndrome)) or too much androgen (females with Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_adrenal_hyperplasia)) there can be physical and psychological effects.[5] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality#_note-4) It has been suggested that both male and female homosexuality are results of variation in this process.[6] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homosexuality#_note-5) In these studies lesbianism is typically linked with a higher amount of masculinization than is found in heterosexual females, though when dealing with male homosexuality there are results supporting both higher and lower degrees of masculinization than heterosexual males.
Also check this out, it's pretty funny.

I'm disappointed that electric shock therapy wasn't used. Is Vegas taking bets how long "the cure" will last?

they used to think being left handed was wrong and something that needed to be cured too. turned out all it did was confuse people and gave many of them lots of trouble writing with either hand later in life. Now doesn't that seem like it was great idea in retrospect?
I guess he's not cured of the meth yet though, that must be next.

I didn't read the article from the prostitute, but did he have a grill and every time someone said his name was he like, "Who?"
