Who gets to decide what is 'correct' and what should be 'corrected'?

There is little doubt that homosexuality is related to brain development in the womb, so I find it unlikely that this can easily be altered in childhood or adulthood. If there were medications that could be given to mothers that could prevent homosexuality, then I am all for making them available. The same applies to any medications that increase the intelligence of children, health or other factors that may seem desirable.

What's "correct" development?

I presume 'correct' development is that development that does not result in homosexuality.

Of course, good luck getting that one to work🙂

It's just another religious stance which is basically against all forms of diversity with homosexuality near the top of the list.

One thing: If Mercury causes homosexuality, what about Venus or Mars?

How does one determine correct male hormonal development? Read the original post.

You want to make the case that homosexuality can be cured in all cases, that it is in fact a disease. Regardless of the fact that trait has been around for thousands of years, first nation people in the US had them 10,000 and 20,000 years ago and probably all the way back to Homo Habilis types, maybe even earlier than those relatives of mankind.

Something as complex as global warming is deeply deeply unlikely to have any one cause either, but your faith that CO2 is the primary cause is unshakable. The Pliocene epoch shows that CO2 does not cause significant warming as you once believed, but you still ignore the contradiction.

Your double standard with simple logic is sad. You cannot have it both ways.

You are a sad and pathetic conspiracy nut with reasoning capacity insufficient to think your way
out of a wet paper bag.

You ignore all evidence and reason and are thus impossible to have any reasoned debate with.

Take your anti-science conspiracy-nut delusions elsewhere.

There is a very good reason that climate scientists were never polled to determine if they considered man to be the "primary cause" of global warming. The people promoting GW alarmism are afraid of the results because it will hurt their agenda. Much like the makers of the film "refer madness" they feel a need to lie and mislead people for their own good.

Why don't you push for a fair poll to reveal how climate scientists really feel about anthropogenic GW using the words "primary cause"? Are you afraid of the result too?

So you figure some scientists touting an opinion is going to stop the ice melting all over the world? You figure these scientists will be able by just venturing an opinion, able to stop the rise in sea levels? Or the loss of bio-diversity? Just business as usual, don't rock the boat, we WANT the world to go to hell in a handbasket because we already have our golden parachutes ready to fly because in the new order that will follow the downfall of mankind's civilization, WE will be on top and will be the ones calling the tunes.

Is that about it, metallic one?

No, that's not what I'm saying at all, at least with today's understanding.

I accept the fact that genetic diseases have existed for a very long time. Just because a person is born with a genetic screw up does not mean it is not a genetic screw up. I'm just saying that environmental toxins can mess things up too.

With circular reasoning like that, who needs science?
