Quran Ethics: Homosexuality.

As Salaamu Alaikum, to my respected opponent and audience. Concerning homosexuality, it is quite odd to ask for proof of something which is obvious, concerning whether homosexuality is wrong. While many religious people claim that it is wrong simply because God says so, even I would agree that such an argument is not sufficient. For God should be able to give a logical reason as to why something is wrong as well. So what makes homosexuality wrong? Well, the answer is not religious at all. However, in islam, the qur'an does help to guide us to the understanding. As my opponent has already quoted from the qur'an , it is wrong because it is based on lust, not love. We read the following: "You approach men with lust instead of women. Nay, you are a people who exceeds all bounds"(ch.7:81). Here we see that the qur'an states that the act of same sex is lust, thus it is condemned. For any sexual activity which is based on lust and not love is wrong. Not because God or religion says so, but because it is, as it involves the idea of using someone sexually. This is why fornication and adultery are strongly condemned. When I refer to lust, I'm referring to the act of using someone sexually for their own pleasure. For example, if I hug a woman to comfort her, this is an act of love, which is o.k. But if I hug a woman, not with the intent to comfort her, but to fulfill my personal crave for affection, then this is absolutely wrong. For I am using her emotionally to satisfy myself. This is the most heinous of acts. To use a person is already a harsh thing to do. But to use someone on an intimate level is a disgrace. This we already should know. Think about it. Ask yourself why a woman feels so devastated and dramatized when she is raped or cheated on. It is because she was used sexually. For sex is the most intimate of embraces. So to be used for something which is so intimate to someone will naturally be devastating to them. This is why sex based on lust is highly condemned and wrong in islam, for sex based on lust is the idea of using someone to fulfill your own sexual desires, which is the same root action possessed by rapists and pedophiles. And it is this which is why homosexuality is wrong, for it is based on lust, not love. However, a homosexual will defend themself and state that homosexuality is based on love, not lust. Thus the question is, is such a claim true? Let's analyze. Homosexuals themselves state that they are able to love the same sex sexually, but not the opposite. By doing so, they are also acknowledging that there is a difference in the sexual nature of attraction between men and women. Yet, if you were to ask a homosexual what is that difference, even they wouldn't be able to answer. Nor will my opponent. So what is the difference? Let's further analyze. Love is a feeling of appreciation. A feeling of appreciation you get for being the caregiver and protector to someone, or for being cared for and protected by someone. For example, why does a child love their parent? It is because of the feeling of appreciation they get because the parent cares and provides and protects the child. Yet, why does the parent love the child? The newborn child does not care or provide anything. No. A parents love to their newborn is due to the feeling of appreciation they get for caring and providing and protectiong someone. But since we are talking about loving someone sexually and we know that love comes from a feeling of appreciation for being the caregiver and protector or the one being cared for or protected, then that means that loving someone SEXUALLY either comes from one's feeling of appreciation to care and protect someone or to show appreciation for being cared for and protected by someone. For the convenience of this debate, we will call: "Loving someone sexually which derives from one's feeling of appreciation to caregive and protect" as form A. "Loving someone sexually which derives from showing feelings of appreciation for being cared for and protected" as form B. Now let us remember what homosexuals themselves say. Remember, not even homosexuals themselves can tell you specifically what is in their nature which makes them allegedly love the same sex sexually but not the opposite. However, such a claim means that they themselves are acknowledging that male and female sexual attraction is different. Yet since we know that loving someone sexually derives in only two forms as explained above, then that again means that homosexuals acknowledge that either gender can only have one or the other form. Thus the question is which form belongs to which gender? Again, the answer is obvious. Form A must obviously be the sexual nature of attraction of men, not women, because Form A derives from the nature of a protector and in comparison to women, man's nature is in more accordance to being a protector than woman's. For men are physically bigger and stronger and less sensitive, making them more inclined to engage in physical combat when there is danger than women. This means that a woman's nature to love someone sexually derives from Form B. Since a man's desire to love someone sexually derives from his desire to be the caregiver and protector of someone, then that means that he can only love another woman sexually, not a man, for there is nothing in a man's nature which makes another man love him sexually. Why? Well what makes a person want to protect someone naturally? It's someone who is sensitive, delicate, weaker, smaller, pretty, adorable,etc. Think of why we see a kitten and want to love and care for it, pet it, etc. It is because of its adorable and cuddly appearance which makes us naturally want to love and care for the kitten. For by nature, someone which is adorable and sensitive draws out one's desire to love and protect them. This is a natural reaction. This is why we feel the natural need to love and protect a child, because of their adorable appearance and sensitive nature. However, a man's appearance is not cute and cuddly. His voice is not soft and light. Thus a man can not possibly love another man sexually, especially in preference over a woman. For a man does not posses the physical appearance necessary to draw another man to love him sexually. And since a woman's desire to love someone sexually comes from protection, then it's not possible for a woman to love another woman sexually. Why? Well what makes one see someone as a protector naturally? It's size, aggression, bigger, stronger, muscle, deeper voice box, etc. However, a woman's body does not resemble power and strength. These are attributes of men, not women. A woman's body is soft and curvy, with no muscle build. Thus it is not possible for a woman to love another woman sexually, especially in preference over men. For a woman does not posses the physical build or appearance necessary to draw another woman to love her sexually. In conclusion, we see that, in accordance to nature itself, it is not humanly possible for the same sex to love each other sexually. Surely, they can love each other. Surely, they can engage in sexual activities. But these sexual activities do not come from love, but from lust, as demonstrated. As such, homosexuality is wrong, because it is based on lust, which is the idea of using one sexually to fulfill ones own sexual desires. This kind of mindstate is horrific, as it is the same mindstate of rapists and pedophiles. Using someone is already wrong. But to use someone sexually is one of the most terrible things someone can do. This is what sex based on lust is, which is wrong. And since homosexuality is based on lust, it is wrong as well. Now if my opponent believes that I am wrong , then he would have to answer the question which homosexuals themselves can not answer, which is to identify what specifically is the difference in man and women's nature, which makes homosexuals love the same sex sexually, but not
