Refreshing the homosexuality debate

[Powerman]

Get a clue. Science has not provided ANY conclusive evidence supporting the notion that homosexuality is a genetic or biologically based phenomenom. If you have evidence to the contrary, post it.

Give me a reason to agree with this. And be sure to make it a solid logical argument including whatever conclusive scientific evidence you have to support your position. Whatever that position is....

Why do you need science to tell you that you don't want to have sex with other men?

[Powerman]

Child birth is of the norm, homosexuality is abnormal.

I'm not one who detests it because it's a sin as per the bible, I simply detest it because I think it's disgusting and abnormal. No different than me finding those who engage in 'scat' activities to be abnormal. They are free to make these decisions, as I am free to find it disgusting.

define abnormal

Homosexuality is natural and has existed from the beginning of time in hundreds of animal species

What's so abnormal about it other than the fact that it's in the minority

You still need to explain your assertion from the original post in this thread.

If that were true, wouldn't that mean that we're all inherently bisexual in nature?

Lookup the definition of abnormal, homosexuality fits the very definition.

Just because rats, monkeys, squirrels & donkeys do it, doesn't mean a civilized society should follow suit and find it normal. My dogs eat one another's crap, and dogs and cats have done this since the beginning of time, would you find it abnormal if a civilized society started doing such?

It's very simple

If homosexuality is a choice that means that heterosexuality is also a choice

The only way that either is a choice is if we're all born bisexual

So maybe you can explain to me when you decided to not be gay as a child?

Go back and read my first post in the thread, child. I already said that acting on any impulse is a choice. Are you really that dense?

Right

So what you're saying is you have impulses to engage in homosexual behavior but you just don't act on them?

[CockySOB]

Right

So what you're saying is you have impulses to engage in homosexual behavior but you just don't act on them?

Not saying that at all. And thus my request for you to clarify your original post.

Let's put it this way. You have two disjoint phenomena (impulse and action) which you seem to be stating are the same thing. I am asking you to provide scientific evidence to support your assertion, or at the very least to clarify your position.

Try thinking things out once in a while and not simply relying on some emotional or sensational claim. You'll have more credibility if you do.

[Powerman]

So if you don't have impulses or temptations to engage in homosexual activities then there is a 0% chance of you ever being gay right? The impulses come before the actions and you don't even have the impulses.

*sigh* This is what I am requiring you to prove. Or are you ready to admit that this is just your opinion?

[Abbey Marie]

Not just disagree but demonize & insult. It's at that level for many of the posters here.

What you don't realize is that it's at that level for most people. Liberal muzzling of speech has only driven it underground.

There is a good bit of truth there. Better to be honest, blunt and rude than fake and "politically correct."

I believe ‘most’ people find it disgusting, I also believe ‘most’ people don’t think it a choice.

You're the one that said people act on impulses

Obviously the impulses would have to come before the actions

There is nothing that needs to be proven. That's like asking me to prove that there is oxygen on this planet.

ETA: Why are you asking me to prove whether or not you have impulses to engage in homosexual activity. You said you don't and I'm taking you on your word.

Which is the cry of someone who CANNOT prove their opinion is anything OTHER than an opinion. Go home, puppy. Get an education. Until then, you're just wasting bandwidth.
