How can Christians favor homosexuality?

Regarding "Can we honor this and bless this?" in the Jan. 11 Daily Herald: The Bible speaks clearly on the subject of homosexuality, as does the Vatican. Since the positions of both make eminent sense, how can there be Christians who are so confused on the issue that they promote homosexuality?

The homosexual lifestyle is so unnatural that homosexuals actually have to rely on heterosexuals to produce more homosexuals, since true homosexuals do not reproduce.

For decades the American Psychiatric Association logically considered homosexuality a psychological disorder. And how is a homosexual mind trapped in a heterosexual body not a disorder? Clearly something went wrong somewhere. While the APA now considers homosexuality not a disorder, that non-unanimous decision was made under great socio/political pressure by special interest groups. The decision was not based on science or logic. And the APA violated its own criteria to "normalize" homosexuality. It says: "For a mental condition to be considered a psychiatric disorder, it should either regularly cause emotional distress or regularly be associated with clinically significant impairment of social functioning." If being unable to enjoy normal, natural, procreative sex is not a significant impairment of social functioning, I don't know what is. The "politically correct" APA has little credibility nowadays. Its decision on homosexuality makes about as much sense as saying autism or schizophrenia are not disorders because there are probably genes for autism or schizophrenia.

In sum, this is all pretty straightforward stuff. There should be no confusion on homosexuality, especially among true Christians. It is a disorder. That's a fact.
