HOMOSEXUALITY:
Family Research Council believes that homosexual conduct is harmful to the persons who engage in it and to society at large, and can never be affirmed. It is by definition unnatural, and as such is associated with negative physical health effects. While the origins of same-sex attractions may be complex, there is no convincing evidence that a homosexual identity is ever something genetic or inborn. We oppose the vigorous efforts of homosexual activists to demand that homosexuality be accepted as equivalant to heterosexuality in law, in the media, and in schools. Attempts to join two men or two women in "marriage" constitute a radical redefinition and falsification of the instituition, and FRC supports state and federal constituitional amendments to prevent such redefinition by courts or legislature. Sympathy must be extended to those who struggle with unwanted same-sex attractions, and every effort should be made to assist such persons to overcome those attractions, as many already have.

I think this statement shows the arrogance of the religious right. A total intolerance to nature. They are suppressing anything that could possible provoke a questioning of religion. If we give everyone equality in terms of sexuality, ethnicity, political beliefs and on and on it really takes away from our need for a "god" figure. When people begin to think for themselves they "get out of line" and can't be controlled. It's hard to get them to show up at a designated church and give money. It's even harder to force an agenda on them. If you start them out at an early age religion can turn into "Brand Loyalty" that lasts a lifetime. To have blind faith in something that cannot be proven by science or nature seems along the lines in believing that pro wrestling is real even though it can physical be proven not to be so. You just gotta have faith....and connections in the political arena.
