No.

Science classifies man AS an animal.

Science just dictates that man is a higher functioning animal.

No one doubts creation, but there is a massive difference between intelligent creation and accidental creation.

A tree falls into the water, and is compacted into the ground. This creates oil, but did the tree just fall, or was it pushed?

Science can't answer the question, is there a God. It is just as possible that an all powerful God created the Universe, and everything in it, just for us. Its possible that creation was done by some kind of intelligence, but all be it, accidental. Its possible that a unicorn farted and made the universe. We honestly don't know, likely never will.

But that doesn't change that humans are animals. It doesn't change the fact that homosexuality is natural.

The only thing that threatens those ideas are people who refuse to understand the beautiful natural world that they claim they love their creator giving them, all because a holy book that is over 2000 years old told them to kill gay people.

Its a bit ridiculous.

So why aren't animals making laws?

Why are they not remorseful of their actions?

Why are they not inventors, creators, imagineers?

Animals and Humans are different in one very profound way.

Conscience!

We are animals, a human animal, but animals none the less. This doesn't mean that we have to behave like animals. However, it doesn't mean we should stop others from acting like animals if that is what they like to do, if they aren't hurting anyone else.

Discriminating against a human with a naturally occurring abnormality is hurting them, and it is wrong. Its what ancient, unevolved men did when faced with someone who looked, smelled, felt, and did different things then they did.

History is full of people trying to keep people different from them from doing things they disagree with. Don't be so uncivilized.
If you can't see the difference in animal and human, and animal behaviour and human behaviour, then that is your problem, but when you force everyone's kids to listen to lies about human sexual behaviour, then it becomes everyone's problem.

Do you not see that? Do you not see that some people simply DO NOT want the schools to braiswash their kids into thinking that animal behaviour in humans is normal and acceptable? When you mess with other people's kids you are hurting them, and it is wrong.

Because apparently the "higher functioning" part just keeps on getting missed.

I know, just because you don't, doesn't make what i know wrong.

This is a fact. A Unicorn fart does not make a universe. It makes a rainbow.

Natural things are not always right. There is a right and a wrong.

Thou shalt not Kill.

What animal behavior are you speaking of?

Eating meat? Having sex with every partner you can? (poll after poll, men and women say that if given the chance, and there was no chance of getting caught, most would cheat).

We are animals, the way we treat our children, is animalistic. We keep animals for our amusement and well being, so do ants. We build massive settlements so that we can secure our species, probably to big. We expand, expand, expand, and consume, consume, consume, and push everything out of our way that is there.

For every human "behavior", there is a very scientific explanation, all of them.

I don't know, people seem to be deadset on missing the key point of

not a single person in here is arguing that natural=acceptable.

That's what people who are arguing that homosexuality is unnatural are arguing.

And messing with other people's kids is hurting them?

Just like those who want creationism back in science classrooms, or God and religion in public schools, or want to teach kids that homosexuality is unnacceptable?
