But again, you have one more post to your credit on this thread. And you have yet to refute even ONE statistic that I have presented.
You like to complain- You don’t like to back it up with facts!

Ok, having stumbled across your idiot posts I will enlighten you.
You sir are a bigot, its ok, this is the internet and everyone is allowed to be who they are and i honestly do not mean that in a bad way. (read on)
It was 3 years ago this week that my father who raised me for 35 years came out.
I hope people like yourself experience what it is like to have someone you love and admire admit they are gay.
But, who the hell am i do judge someone on their beliefs? Much like I support my father being gay, I will support you being a bigot, fight on for what you believe in, for you are very much like a homosexual fighting for their rights. Again, I do not mean this in a bad way.
(I will post my story later as I am sure it will enlighten alot of readers)
Now, on to your stats and so called studies…
Family Research Institute*
www.familyresearchinst.org
Founded in 1987 by Paul Cameron, the Family Research Institute (FRI) claims to produce “cutting-edge research” on “family policy” issues. In truth, Cameron is the longtime house psychologist of the anti-gay movement and one of the most thoroughly discredited researchers in America.
After losing his job teaching psychology at the University of Nebraska in 1980, Cameron began to crank out “scientific” studies that bolstered the claims of Anita Bryant, Jerry Falwell and other early anti-gay crusaders that gay people were “diseased perverts” with a program to molest children and demolish America.
Cameron’s first organization, the Institute for the Scientific Investigation of Sexuality, distributed hysterical pamphlets falsely alleging that gay people were much more likely than others to be serial murderers, child molesters and intentional disease-spreaders.
Years later, Cameron’s FRI Web site was still singing the same tune: “The typical sexual practices of homosexuals are a medical horror story imagine exchanging saliva, feces, semen and/or blood with dozens of different men each year. Imagine drinking urine, ingesting feces and experiencing rectal trauma on a regular basis.”
That’s only the beginning. In a 1981 debate, Cameron claimed a 4-year-old boy had been sexually mutilated in a Lincoln, Neb., mall rest room as part of a “homosexual act” but police in Lincoln said no such crime had occurred.
He told the 1985 Conservative Political Action Committee conference that “extermination of homosexuals” might be needed in the next three to four years. He has advocated tattooing AIDS patients in the face, and banishment to a former leper colony for any patient who resisted. He has called for gay bars to be closed and gays to be registered with the government.
Cameron even has called AIDS a “godsend,” and it was for him: Though he was kicked out of the American Psychological Association for ethical violations in 1983 (he was alleged to have used unsound methods and misrepresented the work of others) and then, after pawning himself off as a sociologist, declared “not a sociologist” by the American Sociological Association his studies alleging that homosexuals were intentionally spreading AIDS have been frequently cited by anti-gay groups and commentators like Pat Buchanan.
In the late '90s, Education Secretary William Bennett was badly embarrassed after going on national television and citing Cameron’s unscientific study finding that gay men live only 43 years on average. (Cameron had based the finding on a sample of obituaries in gay newspapers.) Since then, anti-gay groups have continued to make frequent use of Cameron’s findings almost always without mentioning the source.
Incredibly, serving on Cameron’s board are former U.S. Rep. Robert Dornan (R-Calif.) and former U.S. Sen. Robert Smith (R-Calif.)

Nice website you found there.
Another EASILY identifiable problem with one of your great stats…
Without any other information given, it takes about 10 seconds to notice the faults in the above paragraph.
In 1970 there was not a single public figure that was supported for being gay. This resulted in most gays hiding in the shadows.
If you walked the streets of San Fran in 1970 and asked for gays to sign up for a study, I am pretty damned sure you will get the absolute freaks of the crop.
You WILL NOT get the fathers of 3 who continue to live a hurtful sheltered life. You WILL NOT get the Doctors or the Lawyers or ANY credited career person.
It is like walking into a current “legalise Marajuana” campaign and asking for established businessmen and woman to particpate in a study. You will get the most outlandish and rare percentage that are not concerned over the public correctness of what they are fighting for.
This would absolutely skew the results of this study (even if it actually took place).
You sir need to sit back, have a beer and think real fukin hard about what you would do if your wife, son, daughter, mom or dad ever sat you down and said. “son, im gay, do you still love me?”
If anything in this world will give you a real good look at life and religion, it would be that minute.
