Haha, good job flipping it all around on me. 😆 Actually, what I was getting at there was that those who support homosexuality know that arguments made against homosexuality are based on similar ideology, and they refute it calling it illogical, but then why are they applying the same argument against heterosexuality?

Yes, I do see that the point of the questionnaire is to raise this very point. However, I will say that just because the argument is turned around on heterosexuals, it doesn't really support homosexuality in any sense, but only perhaps attempts to refute heterosexuality. The whole basis of this argument stands on the single assumption that homosexuality is, in fact, purely a natural phenomenon.



Ajnu, the way I see it I do not think the questions are based on an assumption that homosexuality is natural. I do not even see it as an argument against heterosexuality. It merely flips around questions directed towards homosexuals. A heterosexual person does not think why they are the way they are. They do not question why they get married or have children. It is a given. It feels absurd and ridiculous to be questioned about such things.

It is not about if homosexuality is natural or not. It renders a point that from a homosexual perspective falling in love with someone of the same sex just happens and it seems absurd to keep getting questioned. When hormones started raging Betty probably discovered boobs instead of boys, and in her world she does not get what girls see in boys.

Lets even say homosexuality is a choice. Does a person's lifestyle choice have to comply with the 'majority'. Should Asians abandon their culture in the United States because it is not the 'majority' culture. Should people be expected to abandon their religions because the majority view the religion negatively.

Nandini, whether or not I believe in homosexuality is irrelevant, equivalent moral status should be granted to all humans, regardless of sexuality, race, color, gender, or any other way that we've found to split the human population into a million groups.



To me the questionairre makes this exact point you made here. It does not matter if you accept homosexuality to be natural. You have the complete right to believe what you do in regards to homosexuality. But we live in a human world and we treat everyone as humans. Its about equal treatment to humans as humans. The questionnaire simply reiterates the old adage - do unto others as you would have others do unto you. And if you enjoy being asked absurd questions then by all means you should ask people the same. I know I ask absurd questions all the time. I hate all humans equally, and I'd all groups to hate me equally. 😆

Being in love
Marrying

Old age
Death



This is by no means against you ROA - just the natural norm.

An infant dying after being born is unnatural. In fact death before old age is unnatural.
Arranged marriages are unnatural as love can come after marriage and reproduction. In fact 90% of the process of love, marriage and reproduction are unnatural.
Sex is unnatural unless it is homogeneous with reproduction.

btw where is your av from?

is

and it is not.. the thing is its fashionable to be a gay and even more modern and intellectual to support them...when everybody seems to overlook the basic fact that ....its not only unnatural but gross and perverted.... but people support it to appear "modern" and as a matter of fact if you can hug few gays lesbians regularly it makes you even more modern as it is clearly evident that not being a gay you could blend so easilly with radical outlooks of the modern evolutionary world...😆
