"Homosexuality is a choice" and its paradox

So if homosexuals promised to be celibate, you'd have no problem with them getting married? I mean, your problem is with the sex, right?

Sex isn't the only component to marriage.

I've already explained to GC the evolutionary benefits of homosexuals somewhere else on this forum, in fact I think I explained it 2 more times to other people on other threads. He did not reply or refute. Anyway, that unnatural argument needs to stop, it's almost on par with the ignorance that is creationism and is blatantly dishonest when you're using a freaking computer to access a forum on the internet.

GC believes in the ignorance that is creationism, so par for the course.

Your misconceptions about what I do and don't understand aside, you agree that the Bible does not condemn homosexuality, but just the act itself. Firstly, where's the harm in gays getting married? I mean, in your eyes, as long as they're celibate, they should be able to love each other and garner the same rights that heterosexual people that love each other and enter into a legal contract with the government do.

Secondly, where in the Bible does it state that Homosexuality is unnatural? Are you just referring to the act itself being unnatural? The Bible states that it's an abomination, but not unnatural (no, the antonym of abomination is not "natural"). If you get this viewpoint from a secular understanding, where and when did you learn that homosexual acts are unnatural? Would this also make heterosexual oral pleasure an abomination? What about masturbation? Wet dreams?

All these things occur in nature, which makes them essentially natural. Your argument falls completely flat from a secular and a biblical standpoint. Let's hear the ad hoc rebuttal...c'mon, we're waiting!

Nooo! I want to hear the ad nauseum again... 1... more... time.
Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die, and be free of pain, or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!

I wonder if Godschild has ever stumbled upon Gay porn. I would love to see his reaction to that. What...? Two women? Oh no, in the heterosexual world of porn this is totally not gay, as far as people like him are concerned.

I'm pretty sure all homophobes love a bit of gay porn.

Especially if the fear raises their adrenaline score.

Of course. That's why police often find their houses full of "research."
