So, you being a gay man, would have been comfortable in your teen years to go to this "counselor" to ask for counseling? Knowing that she has stated that your condition is sinnful and a choice that you have made.
I will defend her right to her beliefs too. But not when it comes to her "counseling" others.

So how many gay relationships did you have before you chose to go with being straight?

Hmmm - I don't really understand why this question has any relation to what I said, but I have no problem telling you the answer is zero.
I have actually had only one relationship in my life and that is with my sweet wife. Our 30 year anniversary is later this year. Of course that has been my choice. Everyone else makes their own choices.

your defense of 'I know you are but what am I?' holds no water.

Because you fraudulently put forth the idea that sexual preference is a choice. I know I PREFER chocolate ice cream to vanilla - because I know what they both taste like so I can make that choice. See the difference?
So when exactly did you choose to be attracted to women instead of men? Was it a tough choice to make? Do you ever think twice about it?

See the difference?
I've never met a man that held any attraction for me - but I have always been free to choose one if I wanted to.

Well come on Nutter, if you go to a person like that when you are like me, then your an idiot and deserve what you get.
In any case, her beliefs don't really affect me, and I'm sure that she would prefer to NOT work with homosexuals and that's totally her choice, so long as isn't hurting them or trying to "usurp" them, who the hell am I to tell her she's wrong?
If it effects her job because she'd be working in some sort of field where your guaranteed to get a homo a week, then fine, point 1 for the college.
Otherwise, it's like those colleges that make you loose 10 pounds before you can graduate -- a complete waste of time.

School Counseling..
I would imagine once she gets her degree, any potential employers can evaluate her and her beliefs; this is not the duty of the school...
Not sure what you are repeating what she is going to school for.
Anyway, that makes no sense. A school should graduate someone with faulty understandings of the field they are in because of religious beliefs and then let employers sort it out later?
