1. What evidence can you give that heterosexuality is an innate characteristic?
First - I did not claim that it was, did I? Second - It is an easy claim to make. The theory of evolution requires heterosexual activity, does it not?
So, if we believe that the will to survive, or that a species fundamentally reproduces, is an "innate characteristic" then heterosexual activity is natural....innate.canpakes wrote:2. What evidence can you give that The Gay Agenda causes many non-human species to display examples of homosexual behaviour?
Psychological defects and minority occurrences of defective behavior is not a sole human characteristic. Other animals murder each other, other animals commit infanticide, other animals are born blind, other animals are even born with severe behavioral abnormalities....none of that merits their condition as being virtuous, preferred, desirable, etc.
However, among humans...
the New Family Structures Study, which is famous and controversial-because-it-contradicts-HRC-money-message, led by Mark Regnerus at the University of Texas at Austin, found that children raised by homosexual parents are dramatically more likely than peers raised by married heterosexual parents to suffer from a host of social problems. Among them are strong tendencies, as adults, to exhibit poor impulse control; suffer from depression and thoughts of suicide; need mental health therapy; identify themselves as homosexual; choose cohabitation; be unfaithful to partners; contract sexually transmitted diseases; be sexually molested; have lower income levels; drink to get drunk; and smoke tobacco and marijuana.
Nevertheless, the idea that because a behavior or characteristic is found within another animal must surely make that behavior or characteristic natural among humans is absurd. If a human was born today and a full ivory tusk was protruding from its nose no one would be blamed for considering that "unnatural"....and no one would argue that since the rhinoceros has one, it must be considered natural. Chances are, doctors would examine it and try to "correct" the situation - even it only posed a cosmetic challenge to the human in question.
Even more to the point is recognizing that marriage, as a legal contract, is bound to sexual activity - so obviously society legislates sexual activity and raises some sexual activity to the level of being more virtuous, more natural, and more worthy than other sexual activity. Currently I have not seen, heard, nor read any argument that elevates same sex activity to that level.....and certainly the idea that SSM should be permitted because a small minority of monkeys are caught is homosexual activity after throwing their poo at zoo visitors is not convincing on any level.
Impressive!
And it supports many other studies, besides axiomatic truth.
It simply amazes me how some otherwise intelligent people are so brainwashed by the homosexual herd mentality that they deny such basic truths as how they came to exist.
Maybe like my husband said, they know they're wrong, but search desperately for straws, to shift the blame to make themselves feel more right.
It's as if they go from singing "Follow the prophet"... To "Follow the Liberals!"
