I do. It is horrible that so many people have actually commited suicide because they were afraid they wouldn't be accepted for being gay. It is because of our horrible society that has ostracised them for hundreds of years. Gay rights have improved recently though and I am hoping that in a few years' time homosexuals will no loner have the stigma attached to them that they still do today to some degree. Your thoughts?

In my opinion I do not think that it is natural. the bible teaches us that it is not. Dont get me wrong I do not bashe or anything like that and I do not treat them any differently then I would anyone else. I would not belittle them or make them think they were unnatural. God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.

Yes its natural because it is within the system of the individual when tthey are born & I whole heartedly open their rights to live in the society we have now.

I don't know if being a homosexual is natural or not. There are so many unexplained things that happen to a human being in their development such as being half male and half female when born. I only know that the bible speaks against homosexuality. I take the bible as the true word of God which is for me a road map and love letter from God to help guide me to living my best life here on earth. I make mistakes and I know God is still there for me and I believe He is there for anyone else who believes in Him and calls on His name. I don't understand how it all works as I am not a theologian. I leave it all with God. God gave us freedom to choose how we live our life so who am I not to give the same respect to someone else.

Hey coffeeshot! I am definitely not against homosexuality! I have no problem with it at all! One of my very best friends that I have known for many years is gay! He has always been there for me and still is! I love him dearly! I have been through many of his relationships with him and have gotten used to his way of life! It may not be what I would prefer or want for him, but it is what makes him happy so I am happy for him! It just became second nature for me after awhile and seeing him with his "boyfriends"! I don't pretend to understand, but I do support those that decide that this is what they want! If that is what they chose and feel is best for them then I say we should let them chose and do as they feel is right for them!

I agree with you totally. I believe you are born gay and that is just the way it is. People who are homophobic make me sick. They should realize "for to the grace of God there go I." Do these homophobic people think that a person would want to be this way, to live in a society that is so harsh towards them. I don't think so. Its just the way it is and people should remember to "Do onto other as you wish them to do too you." If people lived by this motto then like would be so much better for all. No matter your sexuality.

I agree that homosexuality is natural. In fact, I believe everything that exists must have its reason for that existance. If we take a look at human history, it's easy to find that it had already existed hundreds of years ago. I think as individuals, people have the right to choose whom to stay with as long as they don't cause damage to other people and threat to the community.

Of course it is natural. Homosexuality and heterosexuality are perfectly natural.
