I was 'inspired' by some people around me to write about this. Person in question doesn't have access to this blog.
There's nothing really wrong with being gay.
It makes me sick in the stomach, but that doesn't mean that its wrong by itself. A cockroach isn't wrong. Neither is a 15m worm.
Why we actually condemn gays is that it churns our stomachs. We need a reason to hate them, so we create the illusion that they are the immoral dregs of human society, with no sense of decency. They are sick perverts that can only think about having unnatural sex with each other, they are cheap, blah blah blah.
Lies.
I'm sure all of you have encountered reports on gay animals. 8% of rams will consistently mount another male. Males are naturally more sexually active than females. There's a scientific explanation for every immoral myth about homosexuality. The only true penalty that homosexuals suffer is their loss of rights compared to the rets of ours.
I don't subscribe to the 'It's a problem they can't help' version of things either. Its a lifestyle choice that is no more wrong than a person choosing to marry a person of a different race. There are no real arguments that can conclude that homosexuality is wrong.
They still makes me sick in the stomach, but it is lifestyle choice we should respect. Openly gay people are no less brave than the first blacks that stood up against racism or the first slaves that went against their masters.
That was quite interesting :P. Going to talk about atheism and theism next time.
