Johnson, what Yohannes said. I have to admit though, you have an incredible knack for hyping issues out of context. Spice it up by changing the theme now and then

Geo,
1. It's not unnatural (if it were, it wouldn't exist)
2. It's not degenerate (you only think that because some ancient book told you so)
3. It's not a choice based on a whim (no one chooses to be gay. who the hell would wish all the hate from people like you on themselves?)
4. and yes, it's incredibly bigoted and ignorant
The human is the one who takes the time to understand something and doesn't mindlessly accept dogma and hate.
And AbdiJ, really? Islamic State? I don't think anyone here supports those wackos. That's a lot of pretty cheap sensationalization there, not cool. And not being a homophobe isn't "western values" either dude. It's called being a human being.
I'm not injecting a hadiths, it's all purely from a moral standpoint which I'm assuming transcends religious doctrine for you.
Dude, there are identical twins who share the exact same DNA and whilst one sibling is straight as an arrow, the other is a flower. Growing up, the queer sibling obviously lost the plot somewhere along the way. These poor souls are damaged, their cerebral systems have malfunctioned a long time ago, they couldn't care less about stigma. I don't hate gays, it's senseless to hate a mentally ill individual. I'm merely opposed to the propagation a farcical concept, that there's nothing wrong with homosexuality.
What's worse is that instead of aiding them, society is telling them that their conditions are normal and it's a righteous and brave act to accept their afflictions.
