WTF is your point???? Did you or did you not claim to be a stromatalite? Yes??? No/????? The answer is yes, you did. Did I or did I not respond by saying "you're the worlds oldest fossil?" Yes, I did. You then made the out of left field comment that I was picking & choosing from different periods. Can I ask you, how exactly does that have ANYTHING to do w/me calling you the worlds oldest fossil? ANYTHING? It doesn't, therefore this conversation is null & void, dead, done, I'm not having it anymore if you can't follow a simple conversation.
If so, they would be doing so from a perceived position of superiority.
Or a misapprehension of the meaning of the terminology.

The same could be said that if the general public would assert itself against the ACTUAL oppression and victimization perpetrated on homosexuals solely on the basis of their sexual orientation and label such behaviour as universally unacceptable, it would be unnescessary for LGBT's to have to fight for rights that should be universally granted to us as equal members in a civilized society.
What rights are not granted to LGBTs as "equal members in a civilized society"? Voting? Owning property? The right to keep and bear arms? The right to worship as one chooses? To be safe in one's person? To speak, meet, and write freely? To be free from illegal searches and seizures?
I note that you spell the term "behaviour". Are you a US citizen? If you are not, are you claiming the rights of citizenship in this country, or are you referring to the rights denied you in your country of citizenship?

I assume you mean something other than the right to marry a consenting adult of their choice?
Here are a couple more:
The right to inherit Social Security benefits upon the event of of an LGBT spouse; the right to openly serve their country in the United States Military;

No, that was a typo, sorry. I am a natural born US Citizen.
Dogs often eat poo poo to. many male aniuamals also kill and eat their ypoung if not protected form their mother or hidden. Is killing natural with humans and should they then eat their young.They also kill rivals males. Does that make it ok i humans or natural?
I think some people get so caught up in the whole SEX SEX SEX (especially male sex) aspect of homosexuality or in their interpretation of ancient religious beliefs, that all the diverse and positive traits that homosexuals bring to the human race, are ignored.
According to many recent studies we know that many homosexuals are biologically different to heterosexuals and are not just heterosexuals with a desire for homosexual sex. For example(you linked to some in your previous posts) - brain stucture, neurobiology, right brain/left brain emphasis and auditory brain waves are different. All these (and other) differences lead to homosexuals thinking and perceiving differently to heterosexuals.
If we look at the way heterosexual males and females think, feel and perceive differently to each other, it's obvious that homosexuals, who have (to varying degrees) some of the characteristics of both genders, would also think, feel and percieve differently to someone who has only the characterisics of one or the other gender.
I see this as a very Positive thing. The world needs people who think and perceive differently to the majority.
You're one of the most brilliant posters here. Thank you for your contributions.
There's absolutely no evolutionary reason why the traits for homosexuality would ever become Dominant rather than remain recessive (if that's what they are. Scientists are only just beginning to find some of the markers for sexual orientation-It's more complex than just one gene). Can you think of any evolutionary reason why it would???
So your argument appears to a strawman argument.
I completely agree. I don't understand how or why some make the leap to say, "If everyone were homosexual, the species couldn't survive!", as if that's a rationale for why homosexuality is wrong or why it should be considered a birth defect, etc.
Nature has a way of figuring out how to keep the human species going. It's really out of our control. We are what we are.
give this topic a rest---who are you trying to convince it's okay to be gay--mom,dad,your minister or yourself??
Thank you for keeping the topic alive with your post.
Maybe the poster wants to convince the many here who make erroneous and illogical statements about sexual orientation every day on this forum.
