Islam IS the true religion of humanity.

Since you linked Gauss' curve, you see the 3 sigma(standard deviations) at right/left. According to the data I posted, the probability for homosexuality to be un-natural is 3 standard deviations away meaning in the 0.1% region so multiplied by 2 that's 0.2% chance for it to be an un-natural occurrence and over 99.8% chance for it to be of natural causes.

Nine sticks to that 0.2% chance because religion makes her feel good.

Indeed. (although I'm not convinced that one can determine causality from a distribution). However I'm thinking that when 19 says natural she does not mean it in the mathmatical sense. I certainly did not start to learn about gaussian distribution until I was at post grad level so I'm not holding that against her. However it does mean I don't really know what normal means to her.

That's why I'm interested.

I think we are wandering onto slightly dangerous ground here. I also feel people may start confusing normal with a normally-distributed data set. Hardly synonymous and the word normal doesn't mean the same in the two contexts.

I think Nineteen needs to define what she means by 'normal' before we can continue in even a vaguely meaningful fashion.

Nineteen? Can you do so please?

Oh, and I think Ksa is abusing statistics slightly too; chance isn't really the right word to use, it is more accurate to talk about the variation in the data being random or not.
