However, in the latest study the authors claim the phenomenon is not only widespread but part of a necessary biological adaptation for the survival of the species.
Homosexuals existing in a population actually increases survival of the species, not hinders it.
Post all the links you like, but if it becomes common for the male badger or snowy owl to stop mating, they will be doomed to die out as a species.
It's a good thing it's not the most common "condition" then. Homosexuality is still both normal and natural though.
No, it's an abnormal state. It's abnormal for any species of mammal to shun the opposite sex. The single most important function of any mammal is to reproduce and perpetuate the species. Even if it became common for human babies to be born with spina bifida, it does not make that deformity a "normal" condition for humans, it only makes it a common abnormality.

This is a naive understanding of biology (particularly population biology and population genetics). Essentially every higher animal species, including mammals, has within any population a non-reproductive segment. That doesn't mean that sub-population is abnormal or suffering from a detrimental disorder. Challenge yourself and try to think of some reasons why such a non-reproductive sub-population could biologically benefit a population.

Good thing evolution has kept the numbers of gay humans at a relatively consistent amount for all of human history.
I will also point out to you the obvious, being gay doesn't make one sterile or unable to reproduce. Countless gay men have had sex with women, especially during their in the closet years. If the species were on the verge of extinction, gay men and women could certainly keep the population going.
This "gays will make the species go extinct argument" is patently stupid.

Funny, it is usually the religious fanatics that end up going extinct.
Branch Davidians, thinking your religion has a higher authority than the government has consequences.
Peoples Temple, cults are a dangerous thing, blindly following the suggestions of a cult leader can be deadly.
Shakers dying off because of they're strict believers in celibacy.
I flip flop back and forth on this one. I have gay friends and family members and I like seeing them treated well. On the other hand you have the situation where a GLBT agenda is being pushed at a younger and younger age. Pre-pubesant children are impressionable and I really would not want to see my 12 year old niece exploring her sexuality with another girl because it being promoted as healthy and "normal". Once their of age have at it!
Homosexuality is a perversion. Why would anyone try to tell children, those who are most vulnerable to propaganda, that it was normal? A man is made for a woman and vice versa. A man's body works with a woman's body to produce children. This is God's design as it is intended.
Anyone that says otherwise is a brainwashed sheep, in my opinion.
I have nothing else to add. It is what it is. I will not respond to any comments about this issue, considering how absolute and forthright it is. If you find yourself deluded by cultural marxist insanity, that's not my problem. Consider yourself living in a time when humanity will look back and scratch their heads, thinking, "these people thought homosexuality was natural"? It's that bizarre, and you're along for the ride, the victim of intense propaganda that was piped into your brain by way of academia and the media. That's all I have to say.
