What else is new?
If something doesn't harm anyone, what logical reason is there to find it "offensive"?

Originally posted by vivify How is it "circular"? It's a fact that being homosexual doesn't cause harm to anyone. Therefore, no reason exists to be offended by it.
Homosexual behavior has been demonstrated to lead to physical, emotional and spiritual harm by some. Of course I wouldn't expect you to believe what they say because their beliefs are not grounded in what you believe so their statements are grounded in circular reasoning.

The link you posted is from a religious site. At the bottom of their fact page, they mentioned they reprinted information from the Catholic Medical Association. Furthermore, the site links to a video featuring Christopher Rosik, a man who wrote a paper on the "Presbyterian Church’s ordination standard". This means the link you provided isn't credible, since religious organizations have an agenda.
It's interesting how this site seems to try to hide the fact that they're religious, as if they know this destroys their credibility. However, even without the religious ties indicated on their site, it's quite clear they have a religious agenda, like when they express their belief that gay marriage bad.

So a religious site automatically means the info is incorrect. As I said, circular reasoning.

I can't understand how being religious or non religious alters ones credibility.

Except that's not what I said. I said religious sites have a religious agenda, which is usually true. given that the site dedicates a lot (if not most) of its resources promoting anti-gay ideas, saying they have an agenda seems reasonable. The man whose video they link to (Christopher Rosik) has an anti-gay organization.
Furthermore, don't you find it interesting that the ONLY "educational" sources you have that claim homosexuality is unhealthy, are religious? That should tell you something.

Secular sites have secular agendas, what is your point?
