Re: Is homosexuality unnatural?

Larv,

Please persevere. I think the idea that homosexuality is unnatural (which has been forgotten here) has merit, since sex is nature's way of preserving and promulgating the species, and all the actions once referred to variously as sodomy do not further that cause.

What we could say is that while the naturalness or unnaturalness of same-sex partnerships might matter biologically, it doesn't matter socially, legally, or even religiously. We should be strong enough to be able to hold those two concepts in our minds and hearts at the same time: the biological versus all the others.

I think, Larv, I'm beginning to understand your frustration. Can anybody understand the dichotomy I'm trying to present here? Thanks to all of you who are willing to work at it.
