And the 'born that way' thing drives some in the christer orbit just batshit crazy. Taking it out of the 'choice' category is a tough row to hoe as the biblical prohibition presupposes a willingness to 'sin'. Having it being innate to a percentage of the population belies the faith.
And I'm noting this as a nearly 60 year old still possessing a vivid memory of being a third grader and encountering the junior high boys immediately after their PE class on their way to the locker room and realizing how good they smelled, and how badly I wanted to follow them.
Ain't that a weird thing for a third grader to come up with on his own unless it was a primal urge? And recall, this kid grew up in an isolated rural wasteland in the 60s. I wasn't acting on something I'd heard about since I HADN'T heard about it.
LOL, just remembered when I was riding around in a car as a little kid and seeing 'Body Shop' signs around the city and having a VERY wrong idea about what was going on inside them. Might be why I received Revel model car kits for several years as birthday presents till someone noticed I had absolutely no interest in them . . .

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
