it wasn't really being applied to anyone... I was explaining what dogma is, whether within or without the Catholic Church

Right, I get that, I was talking about quirks statement about dogma.

No one is forcing sex down your throat or down anyone's throat. We do expect that we will be treated equally under the law and with respect, as all human beings should be. You can dislike us all you want, but you cannot deny us equal treatment under the law. If that's an argument of a "militant fringe," then I am part of that fringe. It seems like a pretty mainstream argument to me.

God has never said that "homosexuality is evil." You have said that, not God.

Sure He has. Homosexuality is detestable to God...He says so. And as all sin is evil, all those who commit sin unrepentantly are called evildoers.

Even animals have figured out that heterosexual sex is the only sort of sex that "works". If homosexual sex "worked" in producing offspring, it would be self-evident that it was not evil. However, last time I checked, the anus was only for excretion, not for the insertion of foreign objects. "out", not in. Even animals have figured out what is the right hole to use.

Or how about you make 2 worlds, one with only homosexuals in it, and one with only heterosexuals in it... then, come back 300 years later, and you tell me which world still has people in it. The lack of multiplication implies the evil of homosexuality. It does not bear fruit.

people who deny homosexuals the right to marriage and equality in the eyes of the law, not to mention people who think its perfectly acceptible to say the most appaling things about us under the guise of "Christian testimony"

you loose.

600 higher order mammals routinely engage in homosexual activity.

Homosexual activity isn't about procreation, but then no homosexual ever claimed it was.

If the anus isn't for inserting anything, why's it got all those nerve endings?

And finally... ladies and gentalmen, I present yet another reprerssive obsessive who can only imagine homosexuality as being about male to male penetrative sex. The lady doth protest too strongly...

Homosexuals have all the same rights as everyone else. They want special rights.

No one says anything appalling here that isn't true. You do appalling things to each other. There is no guise of Christian testimony--you are getting the truth handed to you. You are fortunate that God loves you so much that He has people care enough to tell you, but you don't appear to recognize it.

How is wanting to marry the person you love a "special" right?

What appaling things do I do to anyone?

You have the same right to marry as I do. I can't marry a woman and neither can you.

Think about it. The homosexual act is perverse and hated by God. It is very appalling that people just ignore that and practice it anyway and then get indignant when He protests through His people.
That's appalling as well.

Did the number grow from 450 vertebrate species to 600 higher order mammals? How does the source of your information on this gather their information? Lets say for instance they are studying a dog. How does one determine that the dog is routinely engaging in homosexual activity when it is as prone to humping my leg, a coffee table, or another male dog?
Do the animals have same-sex monogamous relationships?

If the anus isn't for inserting anything, why's it got all those nerve endings?
nerve endings serve many more important purposes than pleasure.

What a disgusting post.

Human beings are an order far above animal creation. We have nothing in common with them. We hold dominion over them, and if you want to act like an animal, that is your prerogative, but it is "unhuman" to do so, and God is disgraced.

you have the right to marry who you want, I don't.

And I would support your right to marry a woman just as much as I support my own. Nothing "special" there.

And yes, I'm thinking about the homosexual act... what specifically about it is perverse or hated by God? Its not exactly self evident, help me out here...

Depends on the source cited as to the number of observed homosexual practicing species... there are certainly a lot of them though.

Now, I'm up for diuscussing in a calm and rational way inter species behavioral similarities and their implications on morality if you like, however the point of my post was to correect the previous posters contention that somehow, "dumb animals have it worked out that homosexuality is wrong"...

Some animals are monogomous, others aren't... it is always poor to ascribe human ethics to other species, as if we are identical, but I'm happy to discuss the various ramifications if you like.

Again, nerve endings in the anus? yes, nerve endings have several potential functions, yet the previous poster was making an argument from design, saying the anus only has one function... well, if true, there are a bunch of nerve endings there that seem to have nothing to do with defecation, so... you know... since he has all the answers, why are they there?

Taking it a little out of context aren't you?

It was your fellow poster who first brought up the comparison to animals, not me, so you might want to go and dribble some of your "righteous indignation" on him, not me.

And yes, I agree, God created human anatomy is completely disgusting. What was he thinking putting those nerve endings there?
