Sorry if I don't trust your "facts" what happens to a strictly homosexual species ... do they live past a single generation?

There are currently 1,500 known species that display homosexuality in nature. The great thing about science and education is that you can actually study and  confirm things instead of just blindly believing.

I have to say, I am a supporter of gay rights but I think the argument of whether or not homosexuality occurs in nature is irrelevant. I don't even buy into the idea that people are born with a "gay" gene. That seems like an oversimplification of human sexuality. I really don't see why it should matter. If two straight men decide they want to get married, that is their choice. As long as both parties are consenting adults, the argument of whether people are born that way or whether it is a choice shouldn't even matter.

It wouldn't if people didn't use it as a crutch "they can't help it they were born that way" or "they don't have a choice"  I personlally don't give a rats ass if someone is gay or not, that is their life and their choice(?) We get so focused on our differences that we fail to see what we have in common sometimes.  I guess I feel like focusing on differnces tears people apart more often than it brings them together.  Focusing on what we have in common more often binds us than it doesn't. Hell focusing on what we have in commmon (video games in this instance) is what has brought nearly all of us together to this site.
