they do go againest nature. In nature every animal propagates. You must because you have to keep the species alive. So in order to do it you must propagate. It is a fact. I don't they should be able to marry or have civil unions, but they should be able to have benifits and everything else a marry couple has, and yes I am againest the whole ammending the consititution.

Scientists have documented long-term (including lifelong) homosexuality and bisexuality in approximately a quarter of known animal species. The "unnatural" argument, therefore, falls flat.

If it happens in nature, it is natural. I was not injected with drugs as a child to "make" me gay, therefore, be it genetic or through upbringing, I am gay naturally.

Natural means "occuring in nature". Yes, animals do engage in homosexual activity; some individual animals are exclusively homosexual.
You couldn't have posted this in one of the 76349767926039476892 other threads about homosexuality? Your opinion is unfounded and rampant; there's no needed to post a new thread as though you have something new to say.
I don't know what this is, but I like it. ---> :gundge:

The title of this thread is way off. If you're going to use biblical terms and justification, you might as well not waste your time. It clearly states in the bible that homosexuality is a sin.

Thank you for clearing that up. I find it much more important then the means by which this thread was created. It was built on a contradiction.

Oh, it does? Clearly? Absolutely, without a doubt, unambiguously?
We must be reading different Bibles.

I, and many others - most notably the Presiding Bishop and Primate of the Episcopalian Church of America believe that in bliblical times ther ewas no understanding that homosexuality was a natural orientation and not a choice. "Discreet acts of homosexuality" were condemned in the Bible because they were acts of lust instead of the "love, forgiveness, and grace" of committed same-sex relationships. Homosexuality, as we understand it as an orientation, is not mentioned in the Bible. The Most Rev. Frank Griswold.

It's the colouring that through me off. At first, I thought it was a wizard smiley making magickal thingies come out of his hand. But it clearly is a smiley operating a grenade launcher, with bad colouring.

Homosexuality is in no way condoned in the bible, to believe so or to attempt to contort the words for your own sake is heresy.

Heresy according to you - we each are accorded our own interpretations of the so-called "Holy Word". But, just for clarification, are you saying that the Primate of one of the three major churches in America is a heretic?

If by "utterly sickening" you mean that you find it disgusting, then maybe it is to some people. However I find the idea of my grandparents having sex a bit sickening, but I don't hate them.
If by "wrong" you mean morally unacceptable, then you're mistaken, because homosexuality does not harm anyone, therefore there is nothing wrong with it.

Ok, who ruined a perfectly good smiley spam thread by turning it into a homosexuality debate :headbang:
