No, it isn't natural. Does it happen in nature? Of course it does. But why would anyone think it is natural, or use it as justification for human conduct, because it happens in nature? Animals that manifest homosexual behavior also eat their own vomit, roll in feces, lick their own crotches and sniff other animal's rears without any inhibition. But hey- they're ANIMALS. Most of the time, when people just do what they 'feel like doing', it's the beast coming out in them. Yep, there's a bit of the beast in all of us, some of us suppress it better than others. We learn not to pick our nose in public, not to scratch our butt itch at inappropriate times, not to spit just anywhere, and NOT to hump someone, of the same or opposite sex, just because we 'feel like it'... (wow, wouldn't that be a sight?) At least, that's how I have been taught. All of us have been taught certain behavior that is appropriate, and that which is not. Why do we learn these things? Are they all just social taboos and we need to just let it all hang out? I lived in a society like that during the '60's (Haight - Ashbury). I saw it all; people living like beasts. Some are taboos, but others are not. Some are debatable, I am sure. The argument that if animals do it, it's natural, therefore it's OK for humans to do it doesn't hunt.
What homosexuals do is none of my business; I am not trying to tell anyone how to live their life. But why do they insist on coercing society in accepting homosexuality as normal or natural? To be 'politically correct', one must equate homosexual behavior with heterosexual. It isn't!
There's a natural attraction or natural 'fit' between a man and a woman. I don't know how graphic I need to get... is a man's anus the natural receptacle for sex? Or a woman with a strapped on penis? Am I to believe this is natural? Am I politically incorrect if I find this ludicrous? Again, it's no business of mine what homosexuals do, but don't force me to believe this is natural or normal. Don't tell me this is equal to a man and a woman. Two husbands married to each other, or two wives married to each other is not natural or normal. Husband and wife, I will be plain; penis and vagina, that's the natural order of things. If a person is stimulated by the same sex, or children, or an animal, it's not natural.
So what then, when people are attracted to the same sex? Again, what they do is none of my business; I am not trying to tell anyone how to live their life. It's a free world! But don't
