Quote by: mr.perfecto Even considering that, I have never read anywhere that "being a homosexual" was considered normal

IIRC, homosexuality was an accepted practice in ancient Greece. Your'e right though that the claim that the percentage of population which is homosexual has remained constant throughout time is a claim that cannot be substantiated as most societies didn't keep that detailed of a census. You would think that random chance would produce at least small variations.

Homosexuality can be equated with murder as it is just one of a number of such acts that deny that human beings are not animals, but are above them.

I don't see how that "equates" it with murder or even shows that homosexuality is in any sense immoral.

Which is why every justification of it stems from some supposed inability to chose who to have sex with.

Not in my case. I see no reason to condemn homosexuality whether it is genetic, voluntary or otherwise. So long as such relations are consensual there's no problem with it - they're not harming anyone. Ethically speaking, it's no different from relations between people of opposite sexes.

This applies to gay marriage, too. The state shouldn't be regulating who can or cannot get married or otherwise micromanaging our private parts. It would be better to remove marriage from the realm of the law altogether, but short of that legalizing gay marriage is a step in the right direction.
