I think the OU response was very watered down, they can take part in the democratic process without praising it: it is only the better of two evils. Torah values are the only ones that should be praised. “we do not expect that secular law will always align with our viewpoint….and today the process has spoken and we accord the process and its result the utmost respect.” That is shameful in my opinion.

Also, how do you explain people becoming gay when in jail? It is perhaps because they have no other outlet. It is also perhaps because a lack of Torah and a surplus of averos will make someone have a taiva for homosexuality: along with all sorts of other issues. The leaders that gave Hitler power and strong-handed his enemies (the SA, prior to the SS) were gay (before he killed them that is. I am not convinced that a gay person cannot find other women attractive. Nothing can stand before the fire of Torah and if a human being with powerful, deep-rooted homosexual drives falls once along the way there is no excuse to actually perform the act itself or demand it be respected. Making a public national statement embracing homosexuality will do much harm (just like legalizing prostitution and gambling will even if people will do it anyway).
