Other than religious, what reason is there to ban homosexuality?

I agree. That's harmful, though in my opinion.


It's no better than saying 'I don't mind black people, just don't be black around my young siblings or anyone close to me that may be influenced by you.'

both are equally abhorrent and harmful.

Being a muslim isn't natural

But can I ask what you would say if I ask you to stop being a Muslim around my young siblings or anyone close to me that may be influenced by you. (you see the thing is you can stop being a Muslim at any time you like. Gay people don't have that choice.)


Being Muslim is natural according to Islam; everyone is born a Muslim, hence why converts are said to 'revert' back to the religion. Besides that, out of respect to you, I'd certainly stop doing those things that aren't compulsory when around your siblings etc, but I wouldn't stop praying even if around them - and I cant imagine a situation where I would be praying around them. The argument that being gay is a genetic case is preposterous, its been used a gazillion times by a gazillion pro-gays, but when you ask for proof they somehow riggle out of it. Simply put, if its genetic, point me to the gene that holds it.

Your argument is based entirely on homosexuality being genetic; which it isn't. Being black is genetic, besides, not one single point can be made to suggest being black is a problem.

Stronger arguments for homosexuality being genetic to a degree, than it not being.

'Tis true, the lad provided many a link. But why waste my time when I know they aren't credible or prove anything? For if they did, the world would've known it by now, and every abrahamic religion out there would've had to admit its flaw. He admitted himself that they couldn't identify a gene.

What do you consider credible? And well he's providing them because he believes they prove something.

and well not necessarily. Abrahamic religions aren't particularly well known for admitting flaws.

you've been given proof but you choose to ignore it so you remain ignorant and still tell the lie to yourself.

He's a member of the ISOC so I think it would need a visit from god and an explanation why he was wrong in the first place

And if it was proven that it was a mental defect or a choice, conversion therapies would be legal in the UK and it would be a registered mental illness with the British Psychological Society/Association, but guess what? It's not. You are wrong. Deal with it.

And how do you work that one out? If that were the case, the West and the East would be on the same page; they're not. Three guesses as to why.

Actually, that is exactly how you are behaving and coming across. You cannot deal with the fact that:

a). Research has been going on for years on the 'gay gene';
b). The most highly respected psychological and medical authorities in the world have concluded that homosexuality is neither a mental disorder, nor a choice;
c). That although nothing is 100% certain yet, all evidence points towards the argument you so ardently disagree with.
