    Openly Gay Tennis Legend Martina Navratilova Slams ‘Gay Sheep’ Experiments at Oregon State University

    Openly gay tennis icon Martina Navratilova is expressing outrage that Oregon State University (OSU) and Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) are spending millions of public tax dollars on unethical hormone-altering experiments on “gay sheep” that seek to manipulate sheep’s sexual preferences and make them heterosexual.
    OHSU experimenter Charles Roselli drugs fetal sheep in order to alter sex hormones in their brains, and he cuts open the brains of rams he calls “male-oriented” (homosexual) in an attempt to find the hormonal mechanisms behind homosexual tendencies so that they can subsequently be changed. Roselli’s cohort, OSU’s Frederick Stormshak, has surgically installed an estrogen device in the bodies of “gay sheep” in an effort to make their sexual preferences heterosexual. The test results carry the insidious implication that homosexuality in humans can be “cured”; the experimenters have stated that they plan to extrapolate the test results to humans.
    In letters faxed to the presidents of both universities, Navratilova—who has won nine Wimbledon Women’s Singles championships and holds more overall tennis titles than any other player in history—writes, “How can it be that, in the year 2006, a major university would host such homophobic and cruel experiments? ... For the sake of the animals who will die unnecessarily in these experiments and for the many gays and lesbians who stand to be deeply offended by the social implications of these tests, I ask that you please end these studies at once.”
    Read Navratilova’s letters to OSU and OHSU in their entirety and learn more about these needless and unethical experiments.


    * Sigh *

    So-o...according to the fundamental Bible & Koran thumpin' types...after the 'gay' sheep are hormonally & genetically changed, if ever, will they be finally be "natural" or were they "natural" to begin with ?

    And ...what about people ?

    More interestingly, why would God create "gay" sheep?

    I feel this shows that if animals that are not tainted with Adamic sin, then homosexuality can not be considered a sin.

    I thought God killed all the gay sheep at the city of Sodom. I don't recall Lot taking his sheep with him and his daughters.

    I don't see the difficulty in this study being conducted. If it proves that there are genetic or chemical reasons for homosexuality it doesn't alter the individuals' sexual preferences.

    It could be argued that if homosexuality is genetic then religion has perpetuated the genepool by insisting on monogamous heterosexual relationships, thereby thwarting evolution (which they haven't historically believed in). You'd think that fundamentalists would be only too glad that homosexual folk are "coming out", in that it will vastly reduce their procreation, leading to iradication of those dominant genes within a few generations.

    Oh what a dilemma...

    for the many gays and lesbians who stand to be deeply offended by the social implications of these tests,

    I don't think that they need be offended. Afterall, some homosexuals would rather not be. If they want to change that, then a way could be found to do that. It means more freedom for them. As long as it wasn't forced onto them.

    Will "cured" gay sheep go to heaven or hell?

    I'm guessing Lot did not have his sheep with him. But, he did have sex with his 2 daughters and he got away with it. Apparently, Lot behavior 'foreshadowed' the WT's future doctrine of not protecting children. (2 witness rule & all) And still... Lot remains one of the most beloved, heroic examples of what Gods' faithful followers should strive to be. Rabbit
