Have you read any of the hundreds of articles often linked to on these and similiar threads?

If you haven't, you are forgiven your ignorance. If you have, then I can't understand why you think that conservatives' objections to the promotion of homosexuality as normal and natural is based on irrational religious zeal.

The facts are religiously neutral and speak for themselves.

Even Taoism, Traditional Chinese medicine, and Ayurveda all understand same sex behavior to be unhealthy and unnatural, leading to all manner of physical *and* mental/emotional disorders.

And why is that relevant to anything except as further proof that some individual members of all religions, not just Christianity and Islam, hold bigoted ideas of homosexuals? The ancient belief that homosexuality is a mental disorder (shamefully not officially eradicated from our mental health profession until the early '80's) is one that touches all corners of insanity on this subject; it is completely unproven in it's entire ancient history, it is vicious in the extreme, and it is based solely upon personal beliefs and opinions.

Indeed. If there are any posts here that refer to religion and homosexuality, they are few and far between. One of the reasons the categorical index was created was because folks were saying we only had religious arguments against homosexuality. Talk about ignorance...

The end of my FR profile contains information everybody should read. BTW, my net connect is up and down - mostly down, until they can figure out what the problem is.
