I think homosexuality is caused by being attracted emotionally and/or sexually to the same sex. If there is a nurture cause, it probably goes way beyond just abuse.
It could be possible, I guess.

> That's like asking if Depression is caused by chemical imbalances in the brain...
I believe depression causes the chemical imbalance and that the chemical imbalance does NOT cause the depression.
I know it's a chicken or egg thing.

> It really doesn't make much sense. Depression IS largely the chemical imbalance. What causes the chemical imbalance? Simple.
We've got depression itself, then we have these brain chemicals. It's about which is the cause and which is the symptom. I believe that if a person had the chemicals without the depression, they would be lethargic and not sad.

You really have no idea what you are talking about.
You aren't basing it on an educated opinion. You are completely speculating. What is your evidence for this? What research are you basing this off?

No. go ahead. What evidence do you base this off of? Are there professional studies? Prove you aren't just pulling shit out if your ass.
People will ridicule you for saying whatever thought cones to your head and presenting it as an intelligent opinion.

This forum is full of trolls, potheads, and pedophiles. I come here to unwind and don't want to try to educate a bunch of people who are the same type that mocked Gallileo, Darwin, etc.
Basically, just study psychology, particularly research from MRI and catscans.

You are a fucking retard. Really.
Please tie your brilliant theory in with post-partum depression. Also, could you define depression for us?
Also, do you know what "speculating" means? Could you define it as well.
I'm not entirely sure you understand the conversation I'm trying to have.

Nowhere in it does it state "Chemical imbalances don't cause depression." All it says is that current antidepressants are not significantly more effective at curing depression than placebos. I can't wait to see how you get from that fact to "All cases of depression are entirely uncaused by changes in the brain chemistry."

To prove that depression is caused by chemicals rather than depression produces chemicals, someone would need to inject or feed chemicals to people without their awareness (placebo effect) and then have them become depressed. And this would need repeatable results.

Which attributes make up the mind is much debated. Some psychologists argue that only the higher intellectual functions constitute mind, particularly reason and memory. In this view the emotions—love, hate, fear, joy—are more primitive or subjective in nature and should be seen as different from the mind as such. Others argue that various rational and emotional states cannot be so separated, that they are of the same nature and origin, and should therefore be considered all part of what we call the mind.
So there is no clear definition of what the mind is. How do you define mind?
