Picture this..
It's about 7:30 pm, on an unseasonably warm January night...I am in my first night of nutrition class. My professor is rambling on and on about his theories of food dangers that the government is covering up. One such theory is this.....we've all heard the thing about reusing bottled water bottles can cause cancer, right? Well, my professor goes further into this theory to tell us that consuming mass amounts of bottled water and pop (thats coke or soda for you non-Okies) during your third trimester will dramatically increase your chances *like almost 100 percent* of your child being born gay!!!
Yes, you read that right.
He then went on to say that that was a study...and he belevies that is not true, but homosexuality is in your dna. You can't help it.
_____________ insert 10 minute break
While the prof is out of the room, I ask my fellow students.."Did he just say that drinking bottled water will make my child be born gay" and they all said yes. It killed me! Nobody even doubted him! I am sure I made a face because this woman asked "Why, do you not agree?" and I said "Of course I dont agree, I believe homosexuality is a choice! You arent born that way!" and she replies with a "Well we'll just have to ask God some day" and I said "I'm pretty sure God would not approve of this theory...but I'm no professional on the matter". I didn't want to get in a huge debate becaus thats not what the class is about but......come on people!!! The Bible clearly states that homosexuality is a sin, am I right?
Needless to say I have switched profs and classes..
