Also one last thing, yes i view homosexaulity as an abnormal sexual alignment however me viewing something as wrong doesn't mean i hate it, anyways take it which way you want to believe. |
good for you. You're still wrong though. Homosexuality is not abnormal because the goal of a species is not always to procreate. There are many species where a portion of the population has duties other than procreation.
Like I said in another thread. Humans are all unique in vastly different ways. We are different because that is where species survival happens. Whenever you hear about that 1% who is immune to AIDS, or that 5% who have extra brain folds, remember that those statistics are the same make as homosexuality. Also, have you ever heard of "the psychopath test"? It's a book (probably cited it incorrectly but oh well) that talks about how psychopaths can be very productive to society, and that a large number of the total psychopaths are CEOs, because their wiring is set in a way that they are capable of doing things "Normal" people cannot. For instance, some people can live off of 4 hours of sleep per day, etc.
Homosexuality is not abnormal, in the sense that there is something "wrong" with them, be it wiring, chemical imbalance, etc. They are simply the result of humanity, as are geniuses, psychopaths, radical thinkers, and pop icons. Like I said, it is a 2nd century logic you are using. Try thinking about the subject some more. Think about all the other "abnormal" people of the world, and then try and justify how one is MORE abnormal than the other, and what it means for humanity. All those underlined are "abnormal".
The Bible is not an antagonist here, it's just that the Bible was designed to help people live productive lives in an easy way. It's title could be, "Living for Dummies". The problem is that dummies are interpreting the book as if it's the last word, whereas true christians do not. Look at priests, for example. The ones that care the LEAST about the Bible and the rules and the interpretations, are the OLD/WISE ones. The Bible said that homosexuality is abnormal because in that day, it could cause a lot of problems, and could end family names, and the state could seize their property, etc etc. This is not the case in the modern world, and therefore we need a modern take of the whole situation. Understanding begins with questioning what is abnormal.
