Homosexuality Is Unnatural

[NLS]

The only "unnatural" thing I see about it is that you can't procreate.

Sexuality only seems to be an issue where religion is involved.
Who cares what causes it, it won't make a difference to it being right or wrong.

It saddens me greatly that society these days is so ignorant to the fact that stuff like this happens and it's perfectly natural and no one should persecute you for accepting it.

Because loving, consenting adults should totally not be caring for one another and wishing to share their lives, right? Lol.

im gay and my take on it is this: homosexuallity is unnatural as any race of homosexuals would die out after one generation, however, humanity has evolved to a point were we are able to be homosexuall (its not a choice) openly also what i do in my bedroom is not anyone elses buisness bar my own.

A race solely made up of straight women or men would also die out after one generation. That doesn't make them unnatural.

If it's not natural then what is it, supernatural? I know this is a straw man and a false dichotomy but screw it, my point is just as valid as the assertion that "it's not natural" I just made the extra effort to point out my reductio ad absurum and therefore look like I'm trying to hard to be ironic by pointing out the irony in this whole argument.

Take that hipsters!

That's pretty much my feeling on the matter. I mean... if it's not natural, where the hell did it come from? Lol.

Doesn't homosexuality only exists because of genetic mutations? To reproduce, you need a male and a female, so I'd have to assume that homosexuals have to have something to do with genetic mutations.

Of course, I don't have any say on whether or not genetic mutation is natural, nor have I put any thought into it.

Mutation in your genes are natural. There isn't an argument against that, especially since we're all a result of genetic mutations.

 

[Use_Imagination_here]

The people who say this sort of thing aren't the sort of people who would listen to a rational argument.
And by that i mean their stupid and bigoted.

You want to know what alse is unnatural? EVERYTHING YOU OWN OR EAT.

Thank you! Even if homosexuality is some sort of mutation (I doubt it) that would be a... wait for it... natural mutation! Lol. Where do these people think it came from? God? Space? Did we create sexuality in some lab and implant it in people?

And most of the things you wear. And use on a daily basis.

maybe it IS aliens trying to lessen the amount of people on the earth,

Just to shoot this one down, the population of the planet has INCREASED by at least 1 billion people in the last 15 years. Just saying...

I didn't say they were doing a good job.

Hey guys!
Lots of animals eat their young. Therefore, it's okay for me to roast my child and have a nice dinner!
Not that I disagree with the OP, but I just thought I oughta say how flawed that argument is .-.

I agree with that point. It even has a name:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_fallacy

If people actually want to bring up the "unnatural" argument, they have to at the very least define what they mean by "nature". But most people who rail against homosexuality and use that argument rarely think that critically. We must use arguments of reason and logic. I have yet to hear a convincing argument against homosexuality from a rational standpoint.

While I have nothing against gays, I do believe that same sex relations are unnatural.

Why? Nature dictates that sex is purely for procreation, two people of the same gender cannot procreate.

So its unnatural because they cannot produce offspring? Does that mean my infertile aunt is also unnatural?
