9. Why are these people so infatuated with homosexuality?
Is it possible that they have very deep repressed attractions for the same sex and that their fears of being homosexual are what is behind their condemnations? Can it be that they have been raised in a culture in which homosexuality was vehemently condemned at home and especially by their religious leaders and the fear their own condemnation? I think that in too many cases their revulsion may be in reality self directed. Haggard certainly comes to mind in this regard. To paraphrase Shakespeare, "I think they protest too loudly."
