Evidence of homosexuality abounds in nature. If it's procreation that is your bugaboo, I guess you hate all those women who've had hysterectomies too.
Homosexual penguin pair.. Central Park Zoo.
WTF is this inane tripe??? I hope you are not basing your arguement on women with hysterectomies and a single homosexual pair of penguins.
No, I don't hate women with hysterectomies and I don't see these penguins redesigning someone apartment, filing for marriage, or telling society that they have to be accepted and anyone that disagrees is bigoted or simply just plain wrong.
First, it appears you are trying to be cute about women. It's just stupid, so please stop it.
Second, if you were to compare the number of 'partnered' homosexual penguins to the whole number of penguins it would be extremelyl insignificant. It wouldn't even be a stretch to consider it an extremely rare singularity.
Third, nature does have hiccups. There are miscarriages, stillbirths, SIDS, deformities, diseases, syndromes, et al. These are not what is typically considered normal, hence the name abnormalty.
These anomolies happen simply due to statistics. You produce enough penguins, then eventually you will have a gay penguin. Enough monkeys type on a typewriter, then you will have a Shakespearen work.
Lastly, I haven't heard any 'intelligent' reason that I have to accept homosexuality as 'normal'. Call it PC, be militant and tell me that I have to, argue about women with hysterectomies and partnered penguins...there just aren't enough compelling reasons.
Just because there are gay people who say that they deserve this and that doesn't make it right. And for society to kow tow to them is pathetically sad simply because they are afraid of upsetting people or being sued.
