You think what you think and i will think what i think. i still think gay marriage is wrong because it is not the same thing at all as getting married with the opposite sex. is having sexual intercourse with the opposite sex the same as having sexual intercourse with the same sex?
You know, it's that kinda reasoning that made slavery so acceptable for so long. That's also the reasoning the Catholic Church used when they decreed that Indians didn't have souls, and were nothing but animals. Just because someone isn't just like you doesn't make them any less deserving of basic human rights. Sad that you can't see that.
This is not natural, if it was then we wouldnt be discussted by it.
No, we're discusing it because certain ppl have nothing better to do than making an issue out of something so illrelevent.
Gay marriges r wrong. There is a reason there r men and women. For them to get together and reproduce. To have the same sex get together is wrong, gross, a sin, and (to u scientific athieists out there) is naturally wrong. How can a species reproduce if they're r homos? I don't know how u morons can support it or y, but it shouldn't be allowed.
There is more to sex and marriage than just procreating. And following your logic, you would also prohibit infertile or sterile ppl from getting married, and ppl who are too old to have kids, along with ppl who don't kids. You would also condemn all forms of birth control, and oral sex, masturbation, along with a few other things.
Gross is all in the eye of the beholder. Sin is illrelivent, and, it isn't naturally wrong. Homosexual behavior has been witnessed in nature (whether for pleasure, insticks or just plain horniness), and there is a great deal of scientific evidence showing that genes play a large role in the cause of homosexuality. Besides, lions kill their stepchildren in nature, does that mean that this is ok, since it occurs in nature? I've witnessed male ducks gang raping a female duck on dozens of occasions, does that make gang rape ok, since it is "natural", after all? Mothers will kill weak or sick offspring in nature, does that make this right? Nature is suvival of the fittest. So, you "natural" arguement is flawerd, on many levels.
And, here's a peice of advice, before you start calling other ppl morons, you might want to re-emxamine your own stance.
The definition of a disease is anything that is degenerative, be it to an individual or a society. No matter how you look at it, homosexuality IS degenerative as it DOES NOT aid in the prepetuation of the species (humans, in this case).
In an age where over-population is quickly becoming a problem, and where 2/3rds of the world's population live in 3rd world countries, and millions go hungry each night, and where hundreds of thousands of kids are waiting to be adopted, forgive me if I don't share your view that anyone not reproducing is a degenerative to society. The number of ppl that are infertile, sterile, too old to have children, or simply don't want to have kids outnumber, of at least equal the number of gays in the world, yet I don't see you jumping down on them as being degenerates, or trying to bar them from getting married.
As for organization names...you're asking someone who is horrid at remembering names to remember names. I know one, and that is Family Life. I only remember this one because it is both Christian and spoken of a lot on my radio station. I know plenty of respected and respectable individuals who say that it is a mental illness in open. Dr. Dobson is just one of them, but I know there are more -- again, bad with names am I.
After a little researching, I found that "Family Life" I a very right-wing, Bible-based Christian sight (
http://www.familylife.com/articles/article_detail.asp?id=330 ), and also that Dr. Dobson and his "Focus on the Family" show are Christian oriented. And I say this because he gave out Bible quotes in his arguements against homosexuality (
http://www.family.org/fofmag/pp/a0024031.cfm ), like they were girl scout cookies. He also makes wild ass claims about the supposed "dangers" of the homosexuality lifestyle, none of which I have ever been able to confirm, and he also makes many other wild ass claims that support his position, yet provids no references for his arguements.
My sources were from an unbiased website, that do provide references, and give out the neccisary information to check there claims. I can find statements from many well respected, and well renowned physical, sexual and mental health organizations supporting my arguements. I can even find Christian sites supporting my arguements, because I have one allready bookmarked.
And as to your last post, are these numbers supposed to prove that because the number of gays is increasing, that it is really a pychological problem that creates homosexuality?
