Anyway....let me finish on this thread by saying that homosexuality is an abnormality because it goes against fundamental evolutionary instincts of procreation and survival of the species. There is no doubt about that.

That is completely false. Here is my post pointing out why, which you seem to have missed.
Homosexuality is perfectly normal, in that the evolutionary process works by constantly producing different organisms to test on the environment, and some of them are gay men or women.
Homosexuality alone would have a negative effect on the reproduction of the species, but it is not alone. It works in conjunction with the desire to raise a family, as you can see is the case. Many, probably the majority, of gay people want children to raise in a family unit, so they arrange for that, one way or another.
Furthermore, they can be more suitable than some heteros for raising healthy, well-balanced children.
Evolution is a natural process which always works towards survival and reproduction.
If you disagree on any point, we can discuss it.
Hi Leonard,
Well...I don't know what you mean by 'testing' on the environment. Looks like Intelligent design to me!
Well, it would, because you think there is an intelligent designer behind it!
Perhaps instead of the concise phrase I used I should have said :-
Reproduction is not always exact, and the minute differences in reproduced organisms makes them either more or less suitable to survive and reproduce in the environment they find themselves in.
However, let us be perfectly clear about this. The inexact reproductive process is in no way designed ... it is random. If it were designed then there would never be any negative differences, because they are wasteful and eventually eliminated. No
intelligent designer would waste time and energy producing them.
Can we agree on that?
Anyway, I do respect your rational and balanced response on this thread. In spite of being a homosexual you have been more reasonable than those yelling themselves hoarse out here. Thanks for that!
Thank you!
I think we should agree to disagree.... and see how the research on epigenetics pans out. Not likely to happen in a hurry I think!
Well OK, but can you answer that one question first? If you don't agree, tell me why not.
