Morals are the basic values that are inherent in most cultures! Most people feel that killing is bad, most people find death to be sad and most people find "homosexuality" as unnatural!

Both of those links were VERY weak, jakko. Words like "may" and "possibility" show no conclusive proof. And since when is a sheep a human? Basing human behavioral theories on animal experiments is bad science. If your brain is that of a sheep, then it may apply.
But the second link is a gold mine, thanks. These prenatal conditions are not NATURAL. There has been outside influence by various chemicals/drugs. This is my favorite part...I quote
The report concludes: “The most noteworthy findings were that if prenatal therapeutic substances affect offspring sexual orientation, the effects are mainly confined to female offspring and are limited to the first trimester of pregnancy."
The key word here is that first IF. So, as I previously stated, there is no CONCLUSIVE proof that homosexuality is a natural born condition in humans.

Clearly in Switzerland they do not.
Only place that has so far had a National Vote on such a thing and the homosexuals won.
Gay couples win partnership rights ( 05.06.2005 )
Gay rights’ groups are celebrating after voters on Sunday approved a new law allowing homosexual couples to register their partnerships.
The result means that gay couples will now be granted the same legal rights as married couples in the areas of pensions, inheritance and taxes. But they will not be allowed to adopt children or have access to fertility treatment.

Black-hetero-sexual-males are more likely to get AIDs then homo-sexuals. Already posted the statistics for that basis of the arguement.

One other way of finding out that being gay is a state we are born in, is to simply talk to gay people. To simply find out gay people have had the same feelings all of their life (exceptions always exist of course) and that there is no way for them to change it.

"Because it violates natural law, which is based on reason, not faith."
Basis of the arguement is that above, already been shown to be wrong. But also it is from something called "Catholic Insight" which is going to be bias, although it was a well written and presented arguement it was fairly good. But sev seral key points they have are wrong from mytand point - due to the fact sex isn't for fun, so to them homosexuality will always be wrong- if they engage in the act.

Also I was pointing out what the words mean, I do not know what morals a homosexual has because I am not one nor do I know their faith.
Yet I am sure there are enough homo-sexuals who have a faith and to them it seems fine.
This is your problem, you seem to make out as though they are not moral for the way they are born. How is it their fault?

Jakko, I lived with a gay couple for nearly six months. The two I previously mentioned. We talked all the time. The arguement that people are born gay does not make room for those who become gay later in life after being hetero...as one of them was. Great guys...I would do almost anything for them. Yet I do not condone their lifestyle.
