Is gayness a good thing, a bad thing or just part of life?

I think differing sexual orientations are just a part of life, like different eye/hair colours. Whether it's good or bad is irrelevant, in my opinion, because it's not something chosen/controllable.

Okay then, if you could get rid of whatever causes gayness, would you, or wouldn't you?<br><br>I wouldn't.

I wouldn't either, since it's something naturally occuring, "eradicating" homosexuality could potentially have extreme consequences. My personal theory is that homosexuality is a form of natural birth control, since it's been observed in almost every species of animal.

Hmm, quite an interesting reply there, Felix.<br><br>On that issue -- I guess it's natural. Same gender marraige may not be the most favorable issue on my mind, but I'll let it pass without an argument or any anti-homosexual actions [such as protesting in a peaceful manner] as long as a homosexual does not try to put romance-inducing moves on me. For all intents and puropses I am straight, however I seem to have extremely terrible luck at attracting people of the opposite gender.

For reasons that I am nto goign to go completly into a lot of my spiritual beliefs reguarding myself are in a large state of flux right now. I could just be hiding behind them. I'm not sure. I defenatly have some issues I need to work out. That's why I'm in therapy though.
