No it did not. It just says that it can change frog's gender. If it changes frogs' gender then it is not turning them gay. There is nothing unnatural about animals switching sex. Shrimps, clownfish, coral, and frogs all have the ability to do so. There is also no evidence to suggest that chemicals in the water can affect human sexuality or imply the US government is trying to make children gay with juice boxes, as Jones claims.
I used quotes intentionally. This wasn't merely just sex reversals that occurred naturally, there were cases of a single frog having 6 gonads and:
Quote:These abnormalities were never observed in control animals in the current experiments or in over 10,000 observations of control animals in our laboratory over the last 6 years.
Both that study and the Berekley study used a model organism. The EPA has had reports of hormonal problems due to atrazine:
Quote:Effects reported in adults (human and experimental animals) include shortening of estrous cycle length, attenuation of the LH (leutenizing hormone) surge, decreases in pituitary hormone levels, ovarian histopathology (changes in ovarian tissue), and liver effects including increased serum lipids and liver enzymes, and liver histopathology (2).
I limited my comments to frogs specifically, I cannot control Jones' comments.

And again none of that "turned the frogs gay"

Yeah, and we all know how Alex Jones is all for the environment. This global warming denying ecological warrior - can you spot an oxymoron?
So guess what? Alex Jones claims that the Government is using atrazine to make people gay because it makes frogs gay. Alex Jones also supports Trump, and President Trump weakened environmental safeguards for atrazine allowing rivers, streams and lakes in the Midwest to have dangerous levels of atrazine.
So, Jones is full of shit, again, when he supports a guy who wants higher levels of atrazine in the environment.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Oh no, Christians are being persecuted by some dark forces

There's some looney running round on an atheist website telling people that Jews are using the Star of David to conjure up demons.

The Pentagon's new push to investigate reports of UFOs has so far not yielded any evidence to suggest that aliens have visited Earth or crash-landed here, senior military leaders said on Friday.

Yielded some cash in appropriations, though. Score!
I don't think there's a better single example that encapsulates the present moment in us politics. We've become so committed to profitably doing nothing that we agreed to and advocated for chasing the martian invader.... That this, was a good use of further public funding, considering other uses of said funding. Seems to me like we could have spent the money better getting more pics of Hunters massive hog.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
