Anything can suffice whether they relate or not, the comparison is just in your mind.

And I repeat. The comparison isn't hard to figure out unless you just don't want to see.

It amazes me that some parents badmouth homosexuality, and fear having homosexual children because the parents worry about their gene pool drying up. How selfish !!! Why are the children obligated to crank out kids to make ma and pa feel "normal" ? I would tell my children in age appropriate ways that Nature is the big variety show, and as long as people are moral, and decent, we can't dictate how they should live their lives.

I agree with you entirely here. As I've been saying, the focus should be on what I put in bold. Now that we're on the same page...

What's wrong with homosexuality, in and of itself?

If you want to teach your kid to hate, knock yourself out, it's a fee country.

Teaching somebody what is normal has nothing to do with hate.

When they are of age-appropriate maturity, yes.

I use that argument when talking to people who obviously don't know the meaning of "natural". I don't separate animals from humans all the time, I know that humans are animals. Highly intelligent animals (well, some of them anyway), but animals nonetheless.

I say animals will screw anything and immediately you classify animals with humans. Yes I have had many biology classes. How many classes in hypocrisy have you taken??
What part of my post is hypocritical? Do I need to provide you with a dictionary too?

Humans ARE animals.

The only people who teach their kids that homosexuality is normal are the kind of people who listen to quack groups such as the American Psychological Association.


A compendium of revered psychologists and mental health professionals can never compete with wikipedia trained psychologists and quack armchair psychologists that inhabit this board.
