Edit Reason: clearer wording

there are plently of gay people that have come and gone through the forum and opened some discussions on the topic. as a gay man myself i agree that Ra's description of homosexuality as an impairment or a blockage isnt flattering and at odds with how i find it to be personally.
i do concede that the probability that it could stem from a large portion of incarnations in the opposite gender seem plausible
i honestly dont know who scott mandelker is aside from people mentioning his name on occasion so im not invested in his personal interpretation. if he bothers u then u are giving him too much power in this situation
Could auric infringement be a possible catalyst or trigger for those susceptible while others just might be susceptible regardless of setting....maybe. but i dont necessarily like how its phrased as a lack of desire to serve or potentially something reversible under isolation
the only real positive part is "although it is much more difficult, it is possible in this type of association for an entity to be of great service to another in fidelity and sincere green-ray love of a nonsexual nature thus adjusting or lessening the distortions of its sexual impairment." though again, its mildly off putting to hear it phrased as an impairment, distortion or for purely non sexual components to be the redeeming feature of a homosexual lifestyle.
perhaps the language is meant to be purely descriptive (a distortion or impairment could be used in a purely objective manner if we remove the connotations) or perhaps Carla biased the responses
Theres no need to take the entire Ra material as gospel. there are bits in there that i consider far fetched but other parts that seem to resonant with how i actually percieve things to be. take what u want from it but dont consider it the be all and end all.
