Homosexuality is not a choice and is ok.

Rebuttals Your argument consists of three parts, I will address each one. Homosexuality is Natural You say homosexuality is natural, and by natural you do not mean acting according to the natural law but simply occurring in nature. Specifically you mention animals engaging in homosexual acts. But since when did we say that everything animals do is okay or acting according to the natural law. This is absurd considering many animal species cannibalize their young, kill out of rage, and kill over mating rights. The last two are especially common in apes and seems to have extra meaning to you. But since when do we go around justifying cannibalism and murder because its "natural". As anyone can see this argument has no authority to tell humans what is morally right or wrong. If we follow this logic we must also consider cannibalism and murder okay, simply because they occur in nature. Since no one is willing to admit this then we must throw out the argument. Finally the source you used (https://www.primates.com...) never even mentions homosexuality so this has not been backed up by any data that you have provided. (I'm not saying it’s not true, only that you have not shown it in this debate) Homosexuality Doesn't Spread Disease faster This argument makes no sense at all. No one argues that homosexuality is wrong because it transmits disease faster. This has no impact on the topic whatsoever and seems to be just thrown in to make your arguments longer. Heterosexual acts are not considered wrong when one person transmits a disease and neither are homosexual acts simply because they might also do so. It's not the passing of disease that makes an action wrong it’s a completely different discussion. Regardless I will address your augment. First of all the source you provided (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...) never speaks about STI rates, not even once. A simple search of the page (Ctrl + F) comes up with zero finding for the words “STI rates”. So not only does this topic have no meaning but you obviously didn't provide any evidence for your claim. In fact according to the CDC the opposite is true[1]. So not only does this argument have nothing to do with morality it is also based on false information. Not A Choice Once again this argument has no real effect on the resolution is homosexuality is okay. As I mentioned in my post I don't believe homosexuality is a choice and anyone who does is acting out of ignorance. The reality is we do not say that all things about us the we do not choose are okay. We do not go and tell a psychopath to kill people just because he never choose those thoughts. So just because we are inclined to a certain feeling doesn't mean that feeling is automatically okay. We must look at the action and whether the action has any defects in intention, circumstance, or in nature. For homosexual acts because is it against the nature of our bodies it can never be called ordered. So again this argument is very week. Conclusion In conclusion none of your arguments have any real substance after looking at them. We don't condone actions just because animals dot hem, we don't consider STI rates when considering morality, and we don't say that all impulses we have are okay just because we have them. You have never provided any real evidence for why homosexual acts can be considered similar or on the same level as heterosexual acts. So you have not proved the resolution. Finally in looking at your last post you have countless straw-mans. You have not read what I wrote or completely misunderstood it. Vote Con. Sources: 1. https://www.cdc.gov...;
