People want to argue that homosexuality is bad because it’s unnatural
People point out that it occurs in nature
then people point out bad stuff that occurs in nature
So now the argument is that homosexuality is bad because it occurs in nature?
It can’t go both ways.

Nope.
Just pointing out that "animals do it too" isn't exactly a defense.
I was pointing out that it is natural, as it is observed in nature

false equivalency.
You people do this all the time. You don't understand illustrations at all.
quote:Which is most certainly why I would treat them FAR worse than people with a great many other disorders who don't do such things.
Homicidal maniacs impede on the freedoms of others as in not being murder is a freedom we should all enjoy
quote:Which is why I don't really care what gays do in their bedrooms. They can frick 20 of the same sex for all I care.
Where as being gay affects no one but the two adult consenting parties involved.
quote:Fortunately, I don't suggest any such thing.
To suggest that being gay affects anyone else's freedoms in anyway

Yes. And lots of shite is "natural" and is observed in nature.
There's nothing especially useful in this observation given that it ranges from "animals also smile" to "animals also commit mass murder".

The fact of the matter is homosexuals can live perfectly happy and healthy lives. They can be productive members of society.
They have higher risks but those risks can be mitigated
Comparing it to schizophrenia ignores that.

The entire argument was that gays shouldnt have kids bc being gay is unnatural. Well, it is natural, as it is observed in nature.

then people point out bad stuff that occurs in nature

quote:Science is a methodology or a tool, not a person.
science doesn't back you up here
Biology supports the idea that humans naturally procreate via sexual reproduction. Advancement in technology allows for natural reproduction via artificial insemination but that still requires male sperm and a female ovum. You can get very unnatural by manipulating cells to simulate sperm to create life, at least in theory (I haven't kept up with that advancement), but that's in no ways "natural".
quote:I think others have covered this from a relational standpoint but I'm talking about reproduction specifically. Reproduction is natural via heterosexual sexual union within humans. It's impossible via homosexual union.
Or do we need to discuss the word Natural vs Common. It isn't common but it's completely natural.

All murders are due to religion??
Are you drunk right now?
Being a Christian is too be christ like and Jesus did zero of those acts.

Quite obviously, it's a mental disorder. I mean, it's not homicidal maniac type mental disorder, but, it's certainly a mental disorder.
this is opinion.
quote:
If fricking wanting to wash your hands too much because you're irrationally afraid of dirt is a mental disorder, desiring the same sex is one
Too much is the point.
Washing your hands often isn’t.
Washing them to the point where it is detrimental to your ability to function is.

It's less than ideal.
A lot of straight parents are less than ideal too.
If we are forming a line to adopt, I start with the most ideal and work my way back. If there are kids available when we get to a gay couple, fine.

All of psychology is "opinion" then.
Wanting to frick the same sex is a disorder. It's just one of the "not that big a deal" disorders.

What another terrible argument. Animals eat their own, incest, murder, rape, kill the babies of others.....etc.
Incest, murder, rape, killing babies go pretty hand in hand with whats going on in the holy wars of the middle east for the last 2000 years

For example. If you tell me "all felines" make good pets and I say, "I don't think a Jaguar is a good idea".......you're gonna sound retarded if you say, "are you comparing Jaguars to house cats!!!!"
