It is not innate as some believe. Sexual orientation is a matter of self-affirmation and public declaration.<\/p>\n<p>Scientific studies have proven that homosexuality is also linked to pedophilia. For example, a 1988 study of 229 convicted child molesters published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour found that 86% of paedophiles described themselves as homosexual or bisexual.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Michelle Cretella, a board member of the American College of Pediatricians, also concluded from multiple studies\u00a0 that children\u00a0 reared by\u00a0 gay couples have gender confusion and are put at high risk for sexually transmitted diseases.<\/p>\n<p>Cretella noted that homosexually behaving teens and young adults suffer increased\u00a0 rates of depression, anxiety, eating disorders, addictions and suicidal thoughts. In addition, boys who adopt a homosexual lifestyle because of the influence of their same-sex parents face a 30% chance of being dead or HIV-positive by the age of 30.<\/p>\n<p>At the core we are dealing here, not with loving couples but with homosexuality and the destruction of the family unit &#8211; the fundamental cell of society.<\/p>\n<p>Gay parades are about the celebration of unbridled lust. One hopes that future public displays of decadent debauchery and sexual permissiveness will not be tolerated.<\/p>\n<p>With respectful and cordial best wishes, I remain,<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely yours,<br \/>\nPaul Kokoski.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cities\u00a0 throughout the world have been\u00a0 holding gay pride parades this summer\u00a0 to celebrate the lifestyle of Sodom and Gomorrah.
