Is Homosexuality Right Or Wrong?
Replying to iGuestI think this is all about ethics and principles.
I'll try my best to express what I think, here goes.
Consider this, In some places in the world, it is immoral for a man and a woman to have sexual relations if they are not married. It is completely natural for them to have sex, but it is not seen as moral by their society. In other places it is completely normal for 14 year olds to start dating and experimenting with sex.
In other places it is moral for a man to have more than one wife, and in other is is seen as immoral (most of the world).
In some places it is moral to go to a beach and walk around nude, in other places it is considered immoral for a woman to show off her hair (practicing Muslims and some Christians in eastern Europe).
Some places it is ok for same sex couples to exist, in other places you mother will cry her self to death and your father will either beat the crap out of you or join your mother.
So it is not really about natural or unnatural, right or wrong, it is about principles. We won't all agree which set of principles is the right one till God judges us (it'll be too late then :P), I hope we all make the right choices in preparation of that day...
Anyways so the next question after acknowledging that the is a huge spectrum of opinions of what is moral and immoral, that its all about drawing lines.
Personally I believe in one man one woman marriage, with limited contact between them before marriage, just enough to see if it might work out or not and to be sure that their morals aren't in collision. This is based on my religious beliefs which are the base for all my opinions (I believe that the Koran is God's message to humanity, so not following it doesn't make sense to me).
It is all about DRAWING A LINE, when is too much freedom TOO MUCH freedom, there is a line somewhere, you can either follow the Koran, or you can follow what your parents told you, or you can use your few years on this earth to form an opinion and draw your own line.
I think it is wrong because 1. It is unnatural, no one is born gay, get over it, studies have shown identical twins where one becomes gay and the other is stright, there fore it is not genetic.
2. EW, imagine after soccer practice Omar and Jack are sitting side by side, JAck asks Omar what his plans for the rest of the day are. Omar says 'shower, pray, have dinner with my family, you?'. Jack then says 'I'm going to have a man @#$% me from behind'. Omar and Jason will never be friends, NOT NECESSARILY ENEMIES, but not friends.
3. If you start going against nature, when are you going to stop? Whats next? Sex with 7 yr olds? Sex with animals, stepping out of the boundaries which on a global scale and for all recorded history have been known as acceptable is very dangerous, a few years in the future our grandchildren may be here discussing whether marring animals is moral or not, and whether having deep affection and love for their pets is their right or not, and that if you have relations with your dog it is your right and it isn't hurting any one else.
So basically I believe you are opening a door which shouldn't be opened, that's my opinion, I hope you will respect it and not think I'm 'closed minded' for being religious.
I leave you with a TRANSLATED verse from the Koran (so it is not real Koran, just a humans translation)
[30.21] And one of His signs is that He created mates for you from yourselves that you may find rest in them, and He put between you love and compassion; most surely there are signs in this for a people who reflect.
