Okay, maybe typing on a keyboard is natural, but on a smart phone--that's an abomination!

That has nothing to do with a relationship between two ADULTS.

Why wouldn't we use the word love? Don't you love your spouse/significant other? Or are you one of those who believe that marriage is only based on the ability and desire to have children?

I love my husband. I didn't marry him for lust, sex, or children. I married him because I love him.

What I want to know is, why is it wrong to say that homosexuality is abnormal? It is one thing to spread hate speech or discriminate against someone because they are gay or deprive them of their civil rights because they are gay, but I really don't see why it is such a big deal when someone who is high profile says that being gay is abnormal, because it obviously is abnormal.

I have absolutely no ill will towards anyone who is gay. I could easily sit down and have a friendly convo with someone I knew was gay, and I fully support their right to have the same federal benefits as straight couples who've made a legal commitment to one another..... but do I think their sexual preferences are "normal" or "natural"?.....

no, I don't, and I don't see a problem with saying so. There are a lot of people who do things that are abnormal, but that doesn't mean I hate them or would discriminate against them for it.
57 pages???? for that to happen someone must have said something around page 3 that ignited a fire storm.

Anyways, no, homosexuality is not normal,however you are wrong about it not being natural.

the definition of Natural is "existing in or caused by nature; not made or caused by humankind. ", so homosexuality is indeed natural and occurs in other species as well.

all that being said, this is the longest troll thread i have seen, this thread is a branch of the Holyfield one, and there Liberals agreed that there was nothing wrong with what he said, why even start this thread ?

Well now that we know Taratova has chosen to be straight, I think this discussion is losing interest for me.

We'll just wait and see.

Next, child molesters will call the mainstream. pedophobes.. that they were born that way and it is normal to love a child. And the child consents so they have the right to have sex with children. It is not a first that this has taken place in society. Men having sex with boys was acceptable in the past in many societies.
Their business is to look out for their legal interests. Given your ugly bigotry and ridiculous religious nutbaggery, I imagine you think they shouldn't do that, either. Nevertheless, in the non-Nutbag World, marriage is accompanied by 1100+ legal protections, and any human being would naturally want to secure those same protections for themselves. In the non-Nutbag World, no human being would stand by and let his or her rights as citizens be trampled.

Given that, I'd love to hear your ideas about how they should secure their rights by staying out of society and remaining silent about such blatant discrimination and civil rights violations. I've been waiting for Mircea to entertain me with some good old-fashioned pretzel logic, but since he/she hasn't returned yet, you'll do.

As for the rest of your bigotry, you already know there's no reason for me to address it. The difference between what consenting adults do in their homes and what adults do with non-consenting children is, of course, obvious to anyone outside of Nutbag World, so I won't bother posting what has been explained to you at least a thousand times in this forum.

That's two keyboards in one day, and all from one thread. I think that's a Daily Double!
