    You can chose to commit homosexual acts.

    I couldn't care less about a persons lifestyle choice. My beliefs begin and end on the morality of homosexual actions, not if they enjoy loving other men. Love other men all you want. It's the action that I morally object to.

    Two homosexuals having casual sex in no way affects your life at all.

    I evaluate all of the same data that you do. We both know the way that evidence is interpreted is determined by worldview.

    Being "gay" obviously needs to be better defined. If you want to dance with other men and drink cosmos be my guest. I morally object to homosexual acts as natural actions.

    Are you saying that you have homosexual thoughts and choose not to act on them? Is that how you've come to your conclusions about homosexuality being a choice and a belief system?

    I had no choice in my sexuality.

    That's not the point. I disagree with the morality of the action, not the personality of the person.

    "I couldn't care less about a persons lifestyle choice. My beliefs begin and end on the morality of homosexual actions, not if they enjoy loving other men. Love other men all you want. It's the action that I morally object to."

    So it is the sexual act itself that you object to, not homosexuality itself? And that's supposed to make any kind of sense at all? I'm sure this doesn't apply to you, but something I've discovered during the decades I've hung around this planet is that those who are the most fearful of the "physical act" of homosexuality feel that way out of fear of their own sexuality. Something to ponder.

    There are reported cases of homosexual activity from animals, the epitome of nature and all things natural.

    I am not.

    I'm saying enjoying someone's affection(non sexual) and companionship are vital to the human race. That is not what I disagree with.

    To commit homosexual act is a choice. Someone who chooses to follow through with those actions tends to believe that they are not morally wrong, hence their sense of homosexuality is a belief system. They believe it is "ok" to do homosexual acts and they act on it. Not much different than the fact that I believe is right for me to share Jesus with people, so I act on that, and share His story with people.

    Are you saying that is the genetic norm?

    I'm saying its a possible occurrence in nature just like disease, mutations, and skin color.

    Homosexuality in the sense of lavish dinner parties, book clubs, and art exhibits I have nothing wrong with. All joking aside, I am perfectly comfortable with my sexual choices. Thank you for your concern.

    So this discovery of yours, is it observable in a scientific sense? What evidence would you like to share?

    Racial genocide is a possible occurrence. Of course it is wrong and murder is completely unnatural though present in our world.

    No, I am not comparing homosexuality to genocide. Homosexual acts, though a possible occurrence, are morally wrong and unnatural to the continuance of our species. At least that is what science says when it comes to the human race.

    Tell you what. You share the scientific basis behind your all encompassing religious beliefs, then I'll think about going to the trouble. Say what you will, but I can only go on the posts you have made. I think you are both homophobic, bigoted, and in "fear" of your own sexuality, and that drives these "beliefs" you have, not any sense of religious affectation. In my humble opinion.

    That's not what science says. That's what your whacked out world view says.

    So homosexual acts produce offspring amongst Homo sapiens?

    Heterosexual acts produce offspring within the human race. That is pretty scientific, being that it is observable, repeatable, and measurable.

    I would love to see the evidence that homosexual acts produce offspring in the human race.

    Freedom and leisure are possible occurrences as well. Why don't we eliminate those so we can maximize the productivity of each individual and fast track the evolutionary progression of our species?

    Because we are human and personal happiness and free will is just as important.

    So I'm assuming you are against casual heterosexual sex as well?

    Of course, in your humble opinion. Define humble.

    Can you prove that John Adams was the first Vice President using the scientific method?

    Is it observable? Repeatable? Measurable?

    When validating historical evidence one uses the historical method which is

    I would love to spend most of my evening debating the historicity of my faith, but you have provided little evidence that homosexual acts between human beings produce offspring. I believe that is the point of all this anyways.
