I'd say that's a common reason. Also, studies have shown that gay-bashing homophobes are often found to be latent homosexuals themselves. They overcompensate and attempt to hide it by attacking gays because they're terrified of their own feelings and being exposed. Prominent gay-bashers are sometimes found in 'difficult to explain' circumstances. Here are a few names that come to mind: Mark Foley, Ted Haggard, Larry Craig - and here's a good one: Troy King, Alabama's Attorney General as well as the chairman of John McCain's Alabama Leadership Team was reportedly caught by his wife in their bed with naturally another man: King, a conservative Republican Christian who has called homosexuality the 'downfall of society,' has been caught with his pants down literally in a gay sex scandal. King was reportedly nabbed having sex with a male assistant by his wife, Paige King, in the couple's own bed. http://tinyurl.com/6jsmv8 --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, do.rflex do.rflex@ wrote: In my years of working for Charlie he was occasionally asked why people are gay.

[FairfieldLife] Re: Charlie Lutes' explanation on why people are gay
And that the soul incarnates into bodies of both genders is also commonly understood. {Even the Hindu gods are found in the literature to have occasionally changed gender.] The most interesting take on this one in Hindu/Vedic literature is a story in the Yoga Vashista. A king and queen decide to get into spiritual pursuits and the queen gets to UC pretty quick. The king will have nothing of it and wanders off into the forest for a few decades of austerities. A few decades later the queen reckons he might be ready for some instruction, but knowing he won't listen to a woman, she disguises herself as a celibate monk. After some detailed instruction on what's what he gets enlightened, and then the queen starts thinking, hold on this guy is my husband and we haven't had it for years So she goes through a big rigmarole of changing sex every night so the king can hump the celibate monk he's met in the forest, while in UC. Real soap opera stuff and calculated to break the boundaries of people who think in conventional ways about what's spiritual.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Charlie Lutes' explanation on why people are gay
An interesting factoid to add is the Ramtha followers believe a soul incarnates into the same gender pretty much exclusively. The very few who cross over into the opposite gender when they should not be doing such an abhorrent thing are called crossovers and looked at with disdain.

Kansas Board of Education which ruled that discrimination against crossovers was covered under the equality guarantees under the first amendment. I heard that, as a result, the Ramtha hierarchy had to pay some undisclosed amount in a class action suit brought by a whole score of put-upon crossovers who had been treated unfairly by their organisation.
