Animals do a lot of strange things like the wife of a certain spider eating her husband to be fertile. No lady will try that. That animals do some things doesn't justify the fact that humans do. Being gay has always been absurd and evil and will continue to be . Peace.

Whether it is a sin in your religion is immaterial. The long and short of the story is that freedom of thought is a fundamental human right. Therefore, homosexuals have the rights to be who they are and to express themselves.

Actually, homosexual behaviour has been observed in over 1000 animal species, ranging from gut worms to primates. The only other animal apart from the human that has been observed engaging in exclusive homosexuality is the sheep.

I think the net has been cast too wide. According to Wikipedia. ..

Homosexual behavior in animals is sexual behavior among non-human species that is interpreted as homosexual or bisexual. This may include sexual activity, courtship, affection, pair bonding, and parenting among same-sex animal pairs.

The only thing that should be considered, in my opinion, is sexual activity. It's like interpreting human and animal loving and close friendships as bestiality. Animals are very loving.

You have it wrong dear. What that statement is, is that my God is your God. Your chosing to be a walking impersonation of rebellion does not take his authority over you, and most atheists know that as a fact. If you don't then you have no business calling yourself an atheist. Leave it to the real sons of rebellion.

That reminds me of a cow I once had, which had some psychological problems
another cow stayed close with her, ocassionly licking her to comfort and bond.
When the first cow had a calf and didn't know what to do, the second cow
cleaned the calf and allowed it to suck milk from her.
Yeah animals can Love.

Those all practices that does not concur with religion eventually turn evil Is homosexuality evil because a God destroyed Sodom or because it disgust u? if yes, then u are calling people based on ur personal convictions (which could be wrong

You believe that ur God made all things good right, why did he then cause a disorder in the mRNA sequence of some gay men causing inadequate release of testesteron? would that mean that he made a mistake? but I know my pious ignorant christians would say it is the work of d devil and yet still say God made all things good.

Simply put, the fact that there are animals that exhibit what we might call homosexual behavior does not change the fact that homosexuality is a sin for human beings. Some animals eat their young, but that doesn’t mean it is okay for humans to be cannibals. Dogs eat their own vomit (Proverbs 26:11), but that is definitely not good behavior for us to emulate. Some insects devour their partners after mating. We cannot use animal behavior as a basis for morality or to justify our chosen actions.

It is true that “homosexual” behavior has been observed in many species in the animal kingdom. Research shows these creatures having homosexual, bisexual, and non-reproductive sex, but the majority of these instances involve an Alpha male trying to dominate a weaker male to demonstrate who is in charge. It’s not about pleasure but about power and dominance. Other instances of “homosexuality” in animals can be attributed to their being misled by scent or suffering some physical abnormality. In any case, it is rare to find an animal that displays long-term homosexual behavior. Animals enacting homosexual behavior are considered deviant from the common sexual behavior of their species.

“Homosexuality” among animals in nature is not a lifestyle choice. Animals do not operate within any moral context and do not “sin.” However, human beings are not the same as animals. Men and women were made in the image of God (Genesis 1:27). All other creatures of creation were not. Animals are not accountable to God for their actions. Men and women are. Because animals were not made in the image of God, we cannot look at them as examples of how to live our lives.

The Bible is clear that homosexuality is a sin (1 Corinthians 6:9–10). Animals are not going to be condemned by God because of their actions. But sinful humans will be (Romans 3:23; John 1: cool

. Animals do not have a conscience or an innate knowledge of right and wrong. Humans do. Animals do not have the ability to make moral choices, for they function primarily on a survival instinct.

The fact that some people appeal to the animal kingdom in order to justify their iniquity is telling. Such appeals deride humanity and dishonor God, who has made us in His image and likeness. Animal behavior does not change the Word we have been given or the nature of God who defines good and evil.
