It seems you are confusing "natural" with "good."
Unnatural means atypical, artificial, or externally imposed. It is absolutely clear that a minority of the population having homosexual inclination is typical, universal, and organic among human populations.
Knowing this, we are still left with categories -- it could be protectible (like we protect disabilities and racial minorities), it could be totally ignored (like being left-handed), it could be regarded with distaste but not punished (like beign grossly overweight), it could be regarded as sickness and treated with pity and symptons (i.e., gay conduct) not punished, or it could be regarded as a sociopathology and treated with punishment and incapacitation.
The category you pick is going to be based on your values, but none of it goes to show that gayness is unnutural.

It is absolutely clear that a minority of the population having homosexual inclination is typical, universal, and organic among human populations. You know, I look at that a completely different way. Since it is absolutely clear that a MINORITY of the population has homosexual inclinations that means that it is NOT typical.

Unnatural means atypical, artificial...Homosexuals are atypical.
Artificial is anything outside of the biological human reproductive process in regard to reproductive anatomy.
Perversion.
