It is true that original sin causes all of us to be inclined toward sin, to be inclined to do the wrong rather than the right, and in that sense we are all born disordered.
The inclination toward homosexual acts is not different in kind from the inclination to contraception, to fornication, to adultery, to lust, to serial monogamy, to treat sex as merely recreational.
The sexual revolution unleashed and enabled all of those in a more intense way, and the culture adopted all forms of disordered sex as normal. And by disordered sex, I don’t mean just homosexuality. A recent article argues that
hyphenated sexuality of any kind, including heterosexuality, amounts to a distortion of human nature, and leads to a rejection of Christian values. Advocates of same sex unions simply adopt the commonly accepted values of the sexual revolution and make them their own.
“To claim that homosexual behavior is wrong would be to hold others to a moral standard to which one’s own heterosexual behavior does not conform. Whether bi-, homo-, hetero-, all forms of hyphenated sexuality want the same thing: sex without moral or generative limits, relationships without cultural or familial constraints. We are in flight from sexuality and we are using sex as the vehicle for that flight.”
“The real victim of hyphenated sexuality is not the lesbian lobbyist or the gay picketer. The real victim is the youngest and most innocent among us. Free love costs, and children pay.”
