if you want to know who is a moderator just try to put them on ignore
and
you can't put bybee on ignore
The best way to know if someone is a moderator is to look to the left. If they're a moderator, there is a title bar at the bottom of their profile that says "moderator," "super moderator," or "administrator."

You're full of "false accusation" based upon, 'mob hysteria...'
Ah, unsupported declaration, the last hiding place of those bereft of more.
Nonsense. I've pointed to your particular practice and hoisted you on a petard of your own fashioning. And I'm no more hysterical than you are reasoned in this defense of poor behavior.
See you around, newbie. You might want to turn over. You're done on this side of the argument.
You'll notice Grosnick Marowbe, that once the facts have been put on the table, and left winged sissies like Town Heretic and Arthur Brain have absolutely nothing to contribute in the way of a rebuttal, they do what they do best:
Gossip.
It appears that the two gossip queens haven't been doing their job when it comes to monitoring proper conduct here on TOL, as they missed one the size of an elephant:
"All societies of men must be governed in some way or other... Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled, either by a power within them, or by a power without them; either by the Word of God, or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible, or by the bayonet."

Perhaps because those perversions haven't become chic in politically correct circles?
You still never answered the question if you were altered to be an xx (female) would you still be attracted to females as you are now?
Kind of late in the discussion, boy did that fly over your head, better let bubba answer.
Actually you are late, ive already addressed the orientation issue way back in this thread.
here they all are:

The fact that an unnatural attraction to any sin occurs, doesn't mean the person was born that way, or that God messed up somehow.
It means that something happened somewhere that caused it- either the appeal for something forbidden, or molestation, etc.. - but that doesn't mean its ok to before God to take that attraction to another level or that God created them way.
For many various reasons, all of us are attracted to some sin or another- and all of us equally before God should be laying those things at the cross instead of looking for loopholes or reasons to allow for our particular sin flavor.

Do you consider that everyone should be heterosexual. That is how humans were made by God.
Because of sin being in the world though, lots of things got screwed up down here, kind of like the natural attraction thing, and then some people actually consciously desire what is forbidden deliberately and would stick their middle finger right up to God because they could care less what God wants.
No one is denying here that in most people - we didnt just wake up one day and say i choose heterosexuality. We are saying that is how God made it to be, and unfortunately for some - due to societal issues, sin, molestation or a good many other things, a few have an attraction to the same sex.
However, past that, its all a choice, they choose to act on that impulse or not, we all choose to either engage in our sin of choice or to be set free in Christ.
Thread got pretty off topic after all this, but here it is.
Bottom line, regardless of why the attraction is there and how it happened, its sin according to God to act on it.
An honest man will change his thoughts to match the truth, and dishonest man will change the truth to match his thoughts.
Whether or not we like what is sin or not, God is the authority and we can either follow His truth, or make excuses for our sin, but it ends with dying in our sins or repenting and following God
