: Biblical arguments aside, because they are irrefutable, why is homosexuality aberrant? Are all the other members of other species (from dogs to cats to all the other apes to goodness knows what other species from time immemorial) practicing this behaviour aberrant? Why? If procreation is the only ultimate goal for sexuality, then are condoms, masturbation, pills, diaphragms, sponges, spermicidal jellies, abstinence, the rhythm method, and wet dreams all aberrant practices? How about other non-sexual practices? Should we seek to procreate till there is no room left on this planet and not a single bite of food? Get real Stuart. Aberrance is in the eye of the beholder.Problem is Kevin, I can't put the Bible aside. The Bible is what tells
me I'm not an animal, free to do whatever I please. To accept your
argument is to make man an animal and to make all morality relative. We
disagree deeply on this issue. I believe in a fixed moral standard and
you do not. There it is.
Your position brings up too many unreconcilable conflicts.
If I am an animal regarding sexual choice why can't I be an animal
regarding meat in my diet? Are we to pick Kevin's selected morality
which allows us any form of sexual gratification but no dietary
gratification?
If it is both legal and vogue to embrace homosexuality and meat eating
remains legal and vastly popular why is your selective morality code
not to be considered arrogant?
If the words aberrant and abnormal are offensive to you because it
requires some sort of moral judgment, where do you draw the line
between aberrant and normal? Sex with children? Animals? Where do you
draw that line? Write me back and tell me that you don't draw it so I
can again illustrate my point. I believe in fixed standards and you
don't.
But the world needs fixed standards Kevin. Can't you see that the
constant flux of preferred and popular morality only results in chaos
as strong opinions clash?
Just so you don't think I skirted your point in your post, I find all
the things you listed acceptable in the context of a loving,
heterosexual marriage. Biblically, sex is gift from God which gives a
man and woman a very inimate way to grow into one being. Within a
committed relationship, sex serves to unify.
