Homosexuality, Wrong or Right? No flaming!

[lebe0024]

And before anyone says: "Well, as long as 50% of people are still heterosexual, it's fine" doesn't understand the first thing about evolution. Go read a text book. If evolution is true, homosexuality should be out the door.

If there's one thing that prevents reproduction, it' s homosexuality. If you think you're a product of evolution, then you SHOULD NOT STAND FOR HOMOSEXUALITY. It should be the most dangerous and repulsive thing imaginable to you. Before you get all pissed off at me, think about this for at least five seconds.

actually no. ever wonder why all bad things havnt'[ been bred out? process is more complex, one gene that could be advantageous in one contect could have a side effect like homosexuality sometimes.

we are a societal animal, our ability to succeed evolutionary is based on the survival of the group. just because someone doesn't add offspring doesn't mean they are of no use.

ExactlY, except we aren't a product of evolution. We were created by the LORD, with a specific purpose to serve and Worship Him. And, we have an accountability to the LORD, our Creator. "For all Have Sinned and Fall short of the Glory of God", and "the Wages of sin is death". And this creator says as I showed in my last post that God condemns Homosexuality

Wrong. Parts don't fit. We were not designed that way.

What is right or wrong? I define wrong, in a moral standpoint, basically as "Causing harm (or attemptiong to cause harm) to someone else, or thier property, without thier permission". It also includes stealing, even though you can technically steal something without breaking it, it might as well be destroyed if the owner no longer has possesion of it. Murder: wrong, you've harmed someone else. Vandalism: wrong. Assault: wrong.

Homosexuality? Causes no harm to anyone, and even if it did, you've got thier permission. Therefore, not wrong. In my book, there's a big difference between "gross" and "wrong".

This argument makes absolutely no sense. By this logic, it is morrally wrong to try and put a Chevy 454 in a Honda Civic. Sure the motor won't normally fit in the car, but that doesn't mean that if you rig it up so that you can put the motor in the back of the Civic instead of the front, that you have committed some moral atrocity. So the car's got a motor shoved under it's hatch... the problem is what exactly?

You might as well jsut post the real resaon you think it's wrong. Cause god said so, or it's disgusting, or whatever, but don't try to pretend that there's a moral problem with using equipment in a manner that it's designer did not intend. If there was such a problem, all of us with overclocked computers would be going to hell.

notfred, morality and natural law doesn't apply to engine blocks.

What about society? What about my children's minds being twisted and perverted by the growing societal message that this behaviour is "ok".... and not just this behaviour, but most types of decadence. "Don't have sex... here are some condoms"... "Don't take drugs... here are some clean needles".

Think about this for a second. People say that homosexuals have a higher rate of suicide because the CULTURE puts pressures on them. You could take that a step further and say that children who have been molested (with their own immature consent... i.e. no physical force involved) only have wrecked lives because society says what happened was wrong. If we had a society where young kids regularly discussed the sex they had with this adult or that, then they probably wouldn't have the horrible guilt and they would feel normal and their lives would be fine.... but does that mean that we should change society so the perversion becomes the norm and people can feel good about it? NO! Neither should be change the society to make homosexuality normalized.

but morality is different with every person, natural law is a constant (untill some scientist screws things up and prooves its something else)

This thread is really depressing...

I'm going to have to agree with notfred

As long as some guy isn't trying to poke me in the butt (or someone else who doesn't want it), I don't give a damn
