Even if homosexuality is natural, it doesn’t prove it ought to be

If it is "natural," it is at best an aberration, and one that threatens the survival of the species. So it would be "naturally" abhorrent, even absent any moral baggage. It would also be perfectly "natural" for heterosexuals -- NORMAL people -- to reject homosexuals, which most heteros do.

Homosexuality is natural only in the sense that in any sufficiently large population, there will always be outliers, those whose behavior falls outside the bell curve. Sometimes they're homosexual. Sometimes they're mass murderers. Sometimes they're colorblind or have an extra toe.

The attempt to normalize behavior that is abnormal is simply the homosexual community trying to gain a stature it doesn't deserve, by redefining the math.

I think pretty universally Christian theology teaches that we are all “of Satan” by our natural birth, that of “water.” Christ calls him the master of this world. That is why Christ tells Nicodemus, “you must be born again.” That is the spiritual birth by grace through faith by believing in Jesus Christ to take our sins on himself by means of the once for all payment of his blood and death on the cross. Agree or disagree, even up to this point in time, that is the philosophy that has shaped the culture we live in.

I have it on good authority that the position during sex determines the proclivity.

Positions with odd number of letters create gay children while positions with even number of letters creates what is known as the Hetero.

You know...my father-in-law was a 35-year-recovering alcoholic. They say there may well be a genetic component to that. And NEVER, not once, was I inclined to say,”Hey...you can’t help it...you were born that way. God just wanted you to be an alcoholic. So, I endorse your behavior. Here, let me buy you a beer.”

Can those wires get crossed up prior to birth?

I would think so...

But that would be easy to prove genetically, as all homosexuals would have the same genetic disorder or markers...

My daughter has a congenial genetic "disorder"...

One of her chromosomes split the wrong way and she has a problem with spatial things like time and math...

A brain wiring issue...which is easily confirmed by genetic testing...

How does one go about proving that homosexuality is NOT inborn?

In a court of law, it isn't necessary for the defense to prove the accused innocent; the burden is on the prosecution to prove his guilt.

That is the case here. Those asserting homosexuality is biologically hard-wired can prove that, if it's true. However, the absence of proof that it's true is not the same as proof that the opposite is false.

To illustrate, if I insist that 2 + 2 is 4, I can prove it by showing that 2 + 2 = 4, or by proving that 2 + 2 is NOT everything else BUT 4.

Mrs Bill Dei Blasio (mayor of NYC), is an interesting example of homosexuality as a life choice.

Most leftists would turn pro life overnight if a gay gene was discovered that could be identified in a fetus.

‘I’m gay by CHOICE’: Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon faces gay backlash after claiming she chooses to be homosexual

That’s what I thought.

It’s very common nowadays for people to abort Down’s syndrome fetuses. I can imagine an uproar from the left if people started aborting homosexual fetuses.

Maybe this area is how pro-life sentiment will gain ground. The idea of selective abortion, to abort a gay fetus, for example, may be something that even those on the left can’t stomach. And from there, some may be converted to the pro-life side thinking that abortion in general is a bad idea.

Excellent article,but with one very odd proposition.

Even if homosexuality is natural, it doesn’t prove it ought to be.

I must not be logical enough to figure out the logic in that particular statement.

I think Freud had it right - a refusal to move from adolescence to adulthood.

Bingo. Reproductophobic. Responsibiliphobic. Normalphobic.

It's psychologically easier to divorce a non-biological "parent", should the gay-"married" couple decide to break up after test-tubing a child.

I met my husband’s little cousin when the tyke was about 3 yrs old and he was already dancing and prancing around on his tippy toes.
.
I said:”he sure is a strange one,kind of queer”.
Yeah,1960’s lingo.

mother nature isn’t perfect, but the larger majority are indoctrinated into it in some way.

Who is this mother nature person so many refer to?

She is a relative of Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.

Dennis Prager wrote about this and cited some research done ten or so years ago; the research noted that the number of homosexuals who suffered sexual molestation in their youth was quite high.
