Listening to E. Scott Jones on the Homebrewed Christianity Podcast.
Interesting tidbit here… he says that the original idea behind the “we were born that way” argument about homosexuality was originally brought up by those against homosexuality.
The reason being, that if they were “born that way” then they were different and they could then justify treating them differently.
It would be similar to the white supremacist knowing a black man was born black or that a sexist knows women were born as women.
They know they’re born different and that’s how they can justify treating them differently.
