Keep up the good fight and lets pray the Commitee will bring to light the evils of abortion and the culture and death and further halp galvanise and unite Tasmanians that stand for life.

Good article Mark. Praying that when the committee takes a closer look at the issues they discover how the abortion industry is already exploiting loopholes in the current laws! If they do find this, which they should if they look, hopefully they will reject the bill & recommend one that holds the industry to account.

When I saw Professor Krauss the other night on Q&A claiming studies with rams showed 10% homosexuality in the wild and that this justified gay marriage I was stunned. The studies I know of show anywhere between 1% to 8% and have been conducted with restrained rams raised (as is typical) in a single sex environment. Every study I know of shows that normally, if a ram attempts to mount another unrestrained, ram a fight for dominance results. Surely this is exactly what anyone would expect. I have also seen evidence that shows that propensity for male mounting in rams corresponds to a general disinterest in sex (unlike humans) and is more likely a latent form of attempted dominance – especially considering the use of constraints.

Interestingly, a study by Charles E Roselli et al, was apparently able to detect differences in the “homosexual” brain in what he called the “ovine sexually dimorphic nucleus” but he was unable to use this area to predict which rams would become “same sex oriented” (through what could be consider to be conditioning.) In other words, despite his best efforts, the evidence suggested that the change in the brain occurred as part of the conditioning. The study has nothing to do with rams in a natural state and the rate was only 8% (in this study – less in others) anyway. If professor Krauss was to jump to conclusions like that in his own studies I think he would be laughed out of the profession.

Of course none of this in any way retracts from the fundamental immorality of human homosexuality. The stupid thing is, if we were to accept that this is evidence of the morality of homosexuality in humans we would necessarily have to accept that violence against homosexuals by non-homosexuals is moral as well as this would be what is demonstrated in rams. Surely we are smarter than this.

I also believe the study may confirm what I have observed in individuals, that homosexual behaviour and attitude does change as they become homosexual. It also adds to the significant evidence that debunks the “born that way” and the “gay gene” claims despite, what appears to be Dr Roselli’s attempt to show otherwise, as he was unable to come up with a predictive test for what he claims was homosexuality. In short, what a load of bunkum.

Let’s hope we can have some more objective views prevail and cut through the astounding amount of misinformation. Keep up the good work.

A referendum will put the matter of same sex marriage to bed. Let’s face it, if the people of Australia want to embrace same sex marriage, the referendum will cease all opposition.

If the people of Australia are opposed to same sex marriage then a referendum will put the matter to bed.

The best way to advance the cause for a referendum is to tell the truth that homosexuals might get their way and the people just might agree with them and vote for same sex marriage.

For the Christian, it is a no-brainer. The Christian wins either way.

Why?

As in the says of Sodom and Gomorrah, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man. But, maybe not in Australia, to the extent that it is in New Zealand.

Let the homosexuals test the will of the people and get public endorsement rather than political endorsement.
