Because that's not all I believe. I also believe in science.
I falt-out disagree with this. You are not basing any of your views on science. You would have, at most, an agnostic view regarding whether or not homosexuality is natural if you were takign a scientific view. your views are
distinctly unscientific becaus ehtey are all based on faith.
There is nothing illogical about anything I've said.
None of the arguemtns you have presented are valid logic. They are all, universally, illogical.
Absolutely, what I would need is absolute proof to change my view of morality.
But you do not require absolute proof in order to hold and promote your view of morality. This is a hypocritical stance.
I'm not trying to do that though. That is not my goal.
Then stiwhy are you debating?
That doesn't make them illogical, at best it makes them dishonest to the individual.
I didn't say that it was what made them illogical (the plethora of logical fallacies in them is what makes them illogical). The fact that the person is always startign form tehir conclusion and working backwords is what leads them tofall prey to these logical fallacies.
That's not how I feel. My views are based on how I was raised, my religion, and my research.
How you were raised was influenced by your religion and your research is clouded by the beliefs that you hold due to you religion. Otehrwise, you wouldn't be taking such unscientific stances.
Also, I do care if it's normal or natural. That would affect my belief.
I disagree. If you really cared, you would have an open mind about it, instead of making faith-based claims and then defending them without evidence supportign them.
My argument doesn't need your approval
Whether or not your arguments are honest has nothing to do with my approval.
Now, you may feel that I do not have competency in determining honest arguments, and there's nothing wrong with qeustioning my competency in theis regard, but I'm not the only person who notices these things. It's entirely possible that I am correct in my assesment of your argument and that your rejection of my assesment is folly. Idon' twant you to just trust me on it, though. Test it. you want to think scientifically, then put your beliefs to t ehtest.
Step back and legitimately question your assumptions about things. Don't start from your conclusion and work backwards. Write out the logical syllogisms you employ and then see if 2 + 2
really equals 4 in your arguments. Test them for falalcies.
If I'm wrong, all that'll happen is that you come away with an even stronger position.
And if I'm right, all that will happen is that you come away with an even stronger position.
It's win/win for you.
