Reviews

[Jesus Salgado · Rating 4 out of 5]

Gives main points. Better books on the subject, which is probably obvious.

[Steve · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an politically incorrect book. That does not mean that it is incorrect, however.

The main points are:

1) It shows that there is no scientific evidence that homosexuals are "born that way". Not the brain studies, not the twin studies, not the genetic studies. Nothing. The "born that way" stance is politically based not scientific.

2) Even so homosexuality is not a choice; it is a learned behavior.

3) And thus it can be unlearned. Science comes to bear on this; homosexuals can and do change their sexual orientation. In fact 84% of homosexuals do this at least once.

4) The Bible is clear that homosexual behavior is immoral.

It is well sourced and footnoted.
