Homosexuality is Morally Wrong, Therefore Unjust, Gay Marriage must therefore be illegal.

Please site credible sources when using a reference. About.com is written by users similar to wikipedia, and is often not fact checked. However this reference is altogether a digression. The point is not what percent of people are homosexual and the point is not if homosexuality is a choice. As such I will not address these points. You have stated "Homosexuals would be doing the world a favor by not reproducing, and just adopting children already here without a family." This is a subjective argument, a favor to you is not necessarily a favor to me. Adopting children already here without a family is a good thing, but does not have to do with the issue at hand, homosexuals and heterosexuals are able to adopt, this does not make homosexuality moral. You have missed that I have acknowledged in my argument that I accept homosexuality personally, though I am a heterosexual male. I even go so far as to say I recommend others do as well. Notice my conclusion "People must be accepting of homosexuality". Your comparison to the soldier who dutifully served his country and was stricken by ill fate in the loss of his genital area, is a sad comparison. A soldier serves his country, a moral duty. The resulting loss was the result of good intentions. A man who serves his country, and suffers the loss of his genitals, is no less of an honorable man. This is outside of the point however, as you continue to sway outside the question, I must fight to steer it back to the correct path. The soldier was not born with a handicap, he only received his handicap through honorably serving his country. The homosexual is born with this handicap, it is unfortunate, but being unfortunate does not make it morally right. In regards to your statement on over population. This is a nice point, however we fail to realize that according to the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (http://oceanservice.noaa.gov...) 39% of our citizens live on the coast, which makes up only 10% of the country. We do not suffer from over population, so much as we suffer from collecting all in one place, so to speak. You ask multiple times who decides morality. Morality is judged by right and wrong. What is right and wrong? Right and wrong are subjective to the case at hand. But in general, right is something that is for your betterment, wrong is something not for your betterment. If you wish to posit a new definition of right and wrong, please ensure that it is extremely different from the definition I have put forth, as well as disprove my statement. Anything less would be considered another attempt to steer the debate in the wrong direction. All animals look to have their species continued, reproduction is how this is accomplished, thus reproduction is for a species betterment. Any part of a species which cannot contribute to its betterment, is morally wrong. I concede your point homosexuality is natural. Encouragement is not to be used in the sense of encouraging a new person to become gay, but rather approving of the person in question. Example: Congratulating a student on a high test mark. This encouragement is your sign of approval of his or her high mark. A court that encourages immorality, is no longer a court at all. Homosexuals have indeed been in long term relationships, my fiancee's boss' are homosexuals who have been together for more than 15 years, never married, and are also against gay marriage ironically.
