and, it is often considered that homosexuality leads to pedophilia, but I doubt that is true
The large majority of pedophiles are straight men.

For me, it comes down to choice vs. nature.
Why does that matter, though?
If I choose to not have children, that is very unnatural, given that I am sexually active. My husband and I have taken all sorts of artifical measures to prevent unwanted pregnancy.
Is it immoral for us to have thwarted nature for so long?

Is brushing your teeth immoral because thwarts nature?
No.
But then, homosexuality being a person's "choice" rather than their "nature" is irrelevant, too.

wow, we've heard all of this before, only it was niggers you didn't want before
quote:
They dont want their children to be taught by their school teacher that it is okay to be gay or bisexual and therefore give into urges in that area of sexuality. They dont want that kind of "tolerance" forced down their throats, nor their children's throats. They dont want gay parades in their towns and gay marraiges in their Churches and synagogues and mosques. They are not going to have it, and you and all the other lefts, gays and atheists and politicians are not going to force it on them.
Because the foundation for it is real, but religious. Christianity isn't the only religion that goes against the mixing of the races; Muslims and some groups within Judaism do too. They dont want their children to be taught by their school teacher that it is okay to marry someone of a different race or a mixed race person and therefore give into urges in that area of sexuality. They dont want that kind of "tolerance" forced down their throats, nor their children's throats. They dont want racially-mixed people in their towns and mixed race marriages in their Churches and synagogues and mosques. They are not going to have it, and you and all the other lefts, gays and atheists and politicians and nigger/wetback/towelhead/hooknose/mick/wop/hunky/cracker-lovers are not going to force it on them.

quote:
Sexual interaction stems from the natural desire to procreate, not to pleasure oneself or a partner.
By your logic, the reason rapists rape is simply because they want to father a child.
Maybe your ideas about the reasons highly social animals, such as humans and other apes, engage in sexual activity are a wee bit more complex than works for your argument.
Do a google search on "sex" + "pair bonding". Or, look up a page on Bonobo chimpanzees, our closest relatives, and read what function sex serves in thir culture.

Whoa, the evidence suggests the human body is a well designed machine for making complete healthy babies.
Actually, the female human body is not very well-designed for birthing babies.
Not compared to most other mammals, that's for sure.

Your absolutely right. Embarrassing since I once aspired to become a writer and took 3 classes in college on progressive writing.
"Wow" is right, if you took that many writing classes in college, because you also substituted "your" when you should have used "you're" above.
So...what, exactly, is progressive writing, if you don't mind me asking? I've never heard of it before.
