[Quranic Reflection]: sex and love

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

Quite interesting that Atlas likes to explain to us the supernatural (Allah) while he doesn't yet understand the natural ( homosexuality)!

If homosexuality is natural, then the mating would produce children.
I never saw a pregnant man.

If a man and a woman have sex (normal vaginal intercourse, no birth control) and the women doesn't get pregnant, was the sex unnatural?

The anus, the theists nightmare. See how well the penis fits into a back passage, surely this is a sign that they were created for such a thing. In the male the Gspot is obtainable only via rear penetration so again.....

Say in the voice of Ray Comfort

And the road to the prostate is full of poop...

Define "natural".

I defined it in post 13:

Too vague, and doesn't take into account all the possibilities that evolution has conditioned animals to do, such as participating in what may be described as homosexual acts. You could also say that another function of the penis/vagina is to help provide pleasure, thus homosexuality is natural.

Homosexuality is natural because it naturally occurs.  This is the only criteria for whether it is natural. 

Whether you ever saw a pregnant man, no one cares.

I agree with you here. But (just for the sake of argument), let's assume you might be wrong. Let's delve into the issue 

I mean, what if homosexuality IS unnatural? So what?

If we are going to ask this question, first we must ask ourselves what the word "unnatural" even means... and how something that happens in the natural world--like gay sex--can qualify as "unnatural."

And even if gay sex IS unnatural... does that make it immoral? Is that, like, a rule? "All unnatural things are immoral?"

I guess the rule would go something like: "If something is "unnatural" (whatever the fuck that means) it is therefore immoral."

So does that mean virtual reality is immoral? What about Pokemon? Fuck, I mean, what about science fiction novels?

I'm confused.

Males evolved to mate with women and vice versa; we can mark that by the pregnancy the female goes through after a sexual encounter with a male: in other words that's the function their bodies are designed to do; thus it is the natural thing to happen.

For the example; the eyes' natural function is to "see"; not to "hear".
The nose's natural function is to smell; not to "see".
So as the penis: it's natural function is to mate with a female vagina to produce children.

Nothing is designed.   They fell into roles in their bearing population’s (not just their indiidual’s) survival through long and complex series of selections whose criteria is far too numerous, complicate, and often subtle, and most importantly, ever changing,  for the likes of you to imagine, much less comprehend.

If the purpose of sex is to produce children, and sex is permissible only within the confines of an approved marriage, does Islam ban marriage between two people who are unable to conceive a child?

One of the biggest misconception about Islam is that it's anti-sex.

Yeah that is one of the biggest misconception about Islam (I mean Mohammed even had sex with his dead aunt), but the BIGGEST misconception about Islam is that it's shit, while it's actually bullshit.

@AtlasS33

Any religion which routinely practices the mutilation of women's genitals is guilty of moral thuggery and cannot rightly call itself loving.
