Ok, so we could make a case for homosexuality not being normal. Kinda along the same vein as red hair or left handedness not being normal. If that's your basis of whether or not something is normal, than normalicy doesn't really matter to me.

Well? What about the other part concerning the "conclusions" you claim "we" have? Or shall we just drop #1 and move on to #2?
(for clarity, does "natural" mean occuring in nature or simply not influenced by outside forces? Or something else?)

You're welcome to examine all the scholarly work on homosexuality you want. Here's a start. I'd find more specifics, but it's not really worth my time.

I don't know; how would you define it? Remember, I don't care whether it's normal or natural or anything; you do.

This thread will go on forever.

Us: Why does being gay matter?
Fundies: Because God
Us: God doesn't exist
Fundies: Yeah huh he does

Ad infinitum.

They haven't come up with a good reason yet. They never will.

I know. Trolling them is fun for a while, but when they're too stupid to realize how stupid they are, it looses its appeal. Kinda makes me feel like this:
