True enough in and of itself, but man's interpertation and understanding of that "normal" does not necessarily reflect the reality.
We are in total agreement here; although I suspect you did not intend us to be???
For many millenium, man thought that the sun moved around the earth and that the earth was flat. This was normal and the nature made it. But they were wrong.
That's because ancient people had no concept of the earth being anything but stationary because their bodies detected no indication of physical movement_
All their reasoning about the world beneath them and the heavens above were based solely on the only tools they had to reason with, which were their five senses_
And it remained that way until people got smarter and began to question their beliefs and began a more in-depth study of the universe using new tools beyond their five senses_
For several centuries these beliefs were dictated by the
Catholic Church according to its religious doctrine, much the same as
Political Correctness now dictates what is okay to believe, write and say_
The irony of your arguement here is that it can be applied both ways. Nature dictates "normal behavior". Nature can well be dictating that homosexuality is normal, albeit not normative. Desperately waning something to be true does not altr its reality. Desperately wanting homosexuality to not be normal does not alter the reality of it being normal.
And I'll agree, if nature ever reveals a necessary or even beneficial homosexual contribution to the species_
Nature regularly makes mistakes and if it's a good mistake then it survives and contributes to the gene-pool_
Homosexuals contribute nothing to the gene pool__they're born, they live, they die; they're inconsequential_
Sex is a biological function of evolution for the purpose of reproduction and continuation of a species_
A sexual attraction between a male and a female of child bearing age and same species is required_
All sexual attractions other than that is a
biological abnormality, most likely due to a
psychological disorder_
In case you hadn't noticed, I've been basing
"normal" on scientific, evolutionary and biological realities_
Reality doesn't care what you or I want, it is what nature and evolution has perfected over millions of years_
And regardless how badly we want that
reality to conform to our good intentions, it simply isn't going to comply_
Gay Pride is of no importance to me
one way or the other therefore these are cold hard facts
not homophobia_
). Additionally, your argument would indicate that a sterile person is inconsequential as well as an individual who does not contribute to the gene pool. I think you might want to be a little more specific on those last two words as a person's status of consequential or inconsequential is actually irrelavant to whether or not the do or can contribute to the gene pool.
