      Ah, it came across as thinking they were actually right, that conversion was the reason for the increase. I think that misunderstanding is why you’re attracting down votes.

      No, it isn’t. You responded to a comment about conversion and are making it sound like conversion was successful.

        I think they were saying conversion may seem successful to some because of how the numbers look.

        No, I said thats how the census views it. All the census is, is a collection of numbers without context. 1990s, not that many recorded gay people. Key word RECORDED. Today, much higher. Therefore the census sees a jump. The conservatives tried playing this off as a scare tactic, as “THERES MORE GAY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!!! AHHHHH!!!”

        And I said my response was

        “Yeah? And?”

      I understood you. I don’t think it’s you, there are many who were never trained in deductive reasoning. It sucks because it limits effective communication.
