First Caveat: This piece might appear to be controversial or dumb but I invite you to read it with an open mind; if you have a superior or counterargument, I welcome you to bring it forward with an open mind as well.
Second Caveat: I am not homophobic neither is this piece; I have no problem with people being gay, you can choose to have sex with whatever tickles your fancy; be it with a tree, dog, water, fire or same-sex human, it is your body, (mind you, you may just be possessed by a demon and never born that way). What I have a problem with is you as a gay foisting yourself and your sexual orientation on other persons who ain’t gay and expecting everyone to relate with you, accept you and accommodate you even when you are acting nasty around the people; then playing the victim card by railroading anyone who dares resist you by accusing that person of being homophobic.
Just like the way you have the right to validly exercise your legal rights to being gay, someone else who is not gay and whose belief is against homosexuality also has the right to resist you or refuse to be associated with you. Both rights can exist, and stand side by side concurrently and they are both valid.

You cannot force a business owner whose belief system is against homosexuality to attend to you or service you; this was the crux of the recent Supreme Court judgment in the case 303 Creative LLC v. Elenis. You cannot force a priest whose belief is against homosexualism to officiate your wedding as a gay couple. You so-called gays doing that in the guise of gay activism are not just being gay, you are bullies and nuisance that you deserve no place in the modern society.

The cliche “gay by birth” is a made up nonsense. People that use that phrase are either ignorant or just living in self-deception. There is no scientific proof wherever that proves that there is anybody that is born gay or born homosexual. In fact, a series of reputable scientific and medical publications/ journals have clearly stated that there is no genetic link or biological link to prove that any human is born to have sexual attraction towards the same sex; if you are not born that way then you must have learnt, acquired or adopted it from your immediate environment after birth or you are just possessed by demons. Either or all can be true.
Therefore, what causes homosexualism or gayness is all sociological and never biological; it is what you experienced, developed and fantasised, it was never innate or inbuilt.
Let’s ask ourselves, are animals gay or can they be gay? I have yet to see research that shows that an animal is displaying a sexual relationship towards the same sex, so animals ain’t gay because they have not been exposed or learnt to be gay unlike humans and humans are just higher animals. If animals can not be gay by birth then humans are not gay by birth.
Most of the world’s religions; Islam, Christianity, Hinduism, Judaism, and even Traditional religion etc frowns on being gay and sees homosexualism as an abomination. Each of these religions has principles or rules in their holy books that forbid humans from having sexual relationships with same-sex pairs. Enough of the religious principles? Even as a natural principle or natural law, the male sex is to pair with the female pair both for the purpose of pleasure and procreation and that is how nature has ordained it.
Since people are not born gay, these are some of the known ways a person can turn into homosexual after birth;
- Learnt through the media; either the mainstream media or social media
- Learnt from the immediate environment i.e. from a member of the family or friend who is a gay
- Sexual abuse of a child by a same-sex adult
- 4 The urge to explore different sexual fantasies and yielding to the urge
- Possessed by demons etc.
Parents owe it as a duty to their children and to society to pay attention to their children; it may sound harsh but true that if your child turns gay you have failed as a parent and it is a shame.
