GIVE HOMOSEXUALS RELIGIOUS AND SOCIAL AND POLITICAL EQUALITY

 
WHAT’S SO GREAT ABOUT NATURE ANYWAY?
 
We ought to break the laws of nature for our own good. We do that all the time. Nature has put water in lakes and rivers and streams and not in the pipes leading into our homes. Nature is not more important than people especially when it makes us think that people are more important. Anybody who says that homosexuals are dirty and wicked because they are unnatural should be thrown in jail for incitement to hatred. In actual fact, we don’t really know what natural or normal is apart from the fact that it is abnormal though common to be evil and it is arrogant and blind to say we do. The Humanist solution that if the behaviour makes sense to you then it is natural. We believe that the religious habit of following beliefs just because it is desired that they be true is seriously abnormal. The ones that go on about normal without knowing what it is are usually abnormal themselves or think they are. We hate others for being what we hate in ourselves.

Natural law does not deserve to be treated as something sacrosanct and inviolable for it is blind and brutal. Nobody should mind a man living with a man or two lesbians living together as long as they are happy. If it is against nature that that is too damned bad for nature is tarnished by evil and deserves all the defiance it gets.

It cannot be proved that same-sex love is unnatural for if you want a computer to think that 2+2=5 then that is the way the machine needs to be. It looks unnatural but it is not unnatural for it only looks that way.

People of the same sex are able to enjoy sex with one another so don’t be so sure that they are not physically or naturally incompatible. Perhaps God pushes people who look physically incompatible together for one of his mysterious purposes. Also, a man knows a man’s needs and body better than a woman’s and a woman knows a woman’s desires and body better than a man’s. The sexes are so different that it is difficult for them to be sexually and emotionally compatible. Consider the number of women whose partners cannot give them an orgasm. This tells us that gay loving is not as unnatural as it looks.

Many people feel that since homosexual relationships tend to be short-term that they are wrong.  But immaturity and weakness or the pressures down to the hostile attitude of society and not homosexuality are to blame for that. Gay love can be stronger than a lot of “straight” love.

The Bible should be illegal for by condemning gay people without evidence it commits the crime of incitement to hatred. The Bible also says that humans wholly oppose God though they may fake devotion to him meaning that if a man lives in the condemned lifestyle of a homosexual he should not be believed if he cannot say his sexuality was not a choice.
 
Nobody has the right to say that homosexuality is immoral unless they can prove it. And they cannot.  
 
Even if it is unnatural it is more unnatural to force celibacy on gays and what is the most natural should be what should be encouraged and allowed even if this means condoning homosexuality even if it is unnatural.
 
If homosexuality is a disorder then when there is no damage to the brain it follows that like all mental disorders that are psychological in nature it must be caused by fear and fear of women would have to be the cause. But gays like women and respect them better than many straight men do so if there is a fear it must be of having sex with women. But many gays want to become straight so that is a strange suggestion too. The fear would then most likely arise from the sense that men are more sexually accessible than women. They are easier lays. Thus the Church would have to say that homosexuality is caused by depravity. The fact that gays have a smaller choice of people to make love with refutes this.
 
The suggestion of some that only homosexual acts are disordered and not the sexuality is unacceptable – they say that the homosexual orientation is not a sin but acting on it or encouraging it is. This really means that you must do all you can to avoid sexual feelings. It is too wrong to be taken seriously for if the sexuality is not unacceptable then the acts are acceptable. If men should have sex with women and not men then to say the inclination to have sex with men is okay is insane and insincere.
 
The Church would agree that a gay person should try to become straight and go into therapy in the hope of that happening and pray ceaselessly for a cure meaning that to accept being gay is a sin and it is only not a sin when there is really nothing you can do. Even if the cure rate is very low the homosexual and lesbian is obliged by Christian doctrine to keep trying to become to called “normal”. So they must pray a lot, visit therapists and analyse themselves and avoid temptation. The key word is try. The fact is that when homosexuality as an orientation will make one’s life a misery then even if it is not a disorder it is not a good thing. If you admit that much and you have to then if you think it leads to or tries to lead to disordered acts then it is a disorder. You do not say hatred is not a disorder but hateful acts are disordered for that makes no sense.
 
The Church manipulates people to oppose homosexuality on the grounds that it does not look very natural. It looks as if vaginas are meant to hold penises so sex should only be between the two sexes. But looks are often deceiving. Trees seem to be meant to grow in the ground and not to end up in the fireplace. The danger in the Church’s logic is that it subtly advocates racism. It looks as if blacks should only wed blacks. So if same sex relationships look unnatural then it follows we should not let whites and blacks marry each other.  It looks as if black skin is given to be maintained and passed on not to be lost or reduced through the descendants of blacks who wed whites. But again, what is important is people’s happiness and if nature drives a white man to wed a black woman he should and that is what nature wants regardless of what happens to the skin of their offspring and theirs. The Church finds itself backed up by its Bible which gives no argument against homosexuality whatsoever. It is just condemned as if there could be no argument about it for it looks unnatural. This implicit racism needs to be dealt with by the law. The anti-racist campaigners should not let the Church get away with its racist inferences which are more dangerous than open racist comments for they are more deceptive. 

To say that gay sex and gay rights are to be celebrated and not just tolerated is saying that you are made homosexual and this is the same as being made black or white.  Blacks, whites and gays are born that way.  If so then the anti-gay is as bad as a racist.

 
Some Christians who support gay rights state that Romans 1, in the Christian scriptures which God wrote through men, which condemns same sex relations is just condemning heterosexuals who deliberately force themselves to indulge in gay acts though it is against their nature. Romans actually states that it condemns people of the same sex desiring each other. Changing from heterosexual to homosexual can only be wrong if homosexuality is always wrong. The Church does not mind forcing some people who are latent gays to think they are heterosexual. The Christian regime does its best to produce heterosexuals with the result that this happens. Nobody can say that it is just perverting your sexual nature that is wrong.

Rules based on what is natural or unnatural are meaningless and the only exception is that evil and cruelty are disorders.

Religion says that the homosexual must not doubt that homosexuality is a sin for that is a sin. They are not allowed to learn that homosexuality is not evil or need not be evil so they must silence all doubts. You can’t learn without doubts. Religion has betrayed gay people by making such rules.

Society approves of people looking at violent films with plenty of killing and blood and guts and it can’t stand homosexual love. The Church likes people to see nails penetrating Jesus on the cross on TV and then has the nerve to forbid pornography and even harmless erotica. All this sanctions hypocrisy and nit picking. The Church then claims that the revulsion many feel for homosexuality is an inner sense telling them that homosexuality is abnormal. But that feeling goes as soon as people get used to seeing gay people kissing or making love on television. It is just the strangeness of it all after seeing and thinking of men and women doing it all the time. When people are repulsed Christendom is there to convince them that it is nature telling them that homosexuality is abominably wrong. The game is to make them believe this for people don’t always be sure why they feel what they do so that they will be manipulated into being convinced that homosexuality is wrong and evil. I feel repulsed by the Christian doctrine and piety so why doesn’t the Church tell me that it is nature trying to tell me something and warn me about the Church?

The Church tells us to contemplate the violence of the cross which we can only expect when Jesus said it was the means of our salvation. Why is it okay then for us to fill our heads with violence in this way?
 
Conclusion
 
Homosexuals should be granted the same rights as heterosexuals. Christianity is guilty of opposition to equality and human rights for gays. If it is consistent, it shouldn’t want to give them any rights at all!
