The body is what makes us human. The mind is merely the body seen and spoken about from a subjective view. There is no such thing, nor ever will be, a human without a human body.

I take a few issues with that.
For one, your would be a brain hooked up to a machine, not a human.
Two, the brain is a part of the body, a human body.
Three, when you speak of "I", you're not speaking about just your brain.
Four, with simple observation, only bodies think, only brains do not.
You are assuming here that we have the same definition about what makes us human, when clearly we do not.
What is a human body ? If I cut my little toe, am I still a human in your eyes ? What quantity of body parts do I have to remove to become something else than a human, from your perspective ?
Three, when you speak of "I", you're not speaking about just your brain.
No but it's the brain who says 'I', not my feet or my hair. Moreover there is a certain plasticity to the brain, it can adapt to body parts missing, even more when some body parts are missing from birth, from foetus development problems. I could still say 'I' if I had been born without arms and legs.
Four, with simple observation, only bodies think, only brains do not.

Humans give birth to human bodies, not brains. We can see what a human being is by looking at them. It's really that simple. Any hypothetical human does not suffice to give any accurate description of a human being. If you identify as a brain, then show me a picture of yourself and prove it is the case.
A human body is what you're born as. How it is modified and classified during its lifespan is a matter of taste.
Show me one brain saying I and you might have a point.
Could you have the same conversation with a brainless body ?
I can sit a living human body on a couch and prove it is thinking—ask it some questions, monitor its brain activity, witness its behaviors etc. Could you do the same with a brain?

First off all this is just a chit chat to look at this from a larger grand scale,
I will begin with the Georgia Guidestones which clearly states to keep the population at a certain level. This is chiseled in to a state monument along with being a set of guidelines for the ( New World Order)
My next part will be Religion, the majority of religion around the world have always disproved and condemned this type of behavior up until recently they have basically put a complete stop to trying and are now just letting this epidemic run it's course. At the end of the day if you remove all science and technology, in order to procreate and replenish the population you need a "Man and Woman" FULL STOP.
Now I will talk about foods. It is a well known fact now that a lot of foods have certain hormones and chemicals in them that alter a persons sexuality and libido. Take Kelloggs cornflakes for example, it contains certain properties that decrease a males sex drive. That is only one product of many out there. I ask you this how well do we know the true nature and the contents of the food we eat and how it effects the human body.
I want to state another valid point, that there have always been gay and lesbian people but lately there has been a rapid clime in homosexuality in the past decade. and when I say rapid im talking about quicker then it should naturally occur which brings me to thinking this new homosexuality element in society has been socially played upon by the POWERS AT B / NWO to help slow down the growth of the population.
Now I am well aware a lot of gay's, bi's and other people are going to try to take a stab at me. But before you do I just wanna say I have a lot of gay friends and have learned to accept people for who they are.
But at the end of the day all of these factors put together makes me wonder if something grand is at play here.
