THERE ARE NO UNIVERSAL MORAL VALUES.

i'm sorry. there just arent.

i suppose this would be a universal moral value (that there arent any), but im okay with that flaw in my logic.

@jiggles

LOL. Well put.

Bigots chap my hide, especially when they hide behind religion.

And putting homosexuality on the same level as infanticide truly exposes the ignorance.

Praises, obviously, holds the gold standard of what IS moral and what ISN'T.

I think your God hates bigots more than he does a couple of boys or girls in love.

You are hilarious, Praises, in a very frightening way.

"There are plenty of cultures that think it moral to engage in certain acts of infanticide." It doesn't matter what they "THINK"...It matters what IS moral or not! Infanticide is immoral. Homosexuality is immoral. Murder is immoral. All are "natural".

Oh, and just to add because I hit "submit" too soon. There are plenty of cultures that think it moral to engage in certain acts of infanticide. Have you read the PNG tribe post? For the record, I am not gay, nor do I kill babies, but neither do I feel that my beliefs, lifestyle, or morality is the only one that matters, which is exactly what is wrong with this supposedly moral anti-homosexual stance, which I am starting to believe comes from an overwhelming secret desire to see what goes on behind someone else's closed door and direct the action. Believe what you want, it's your right, but don't force it on others. That's what Iran is there for.

Um..infanticide is "natural" for bonobos but that doesn't mean its moral for people to engage in it, despite what abortion murderers say!

Homosexuality has always been, and should always be, considered immoral! God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and steve!

@Kevin

The last thing I am is PC. However, there are roughly 900 species that engage in clear homosexual and bisexual behavior.

As for your dog, humping is a dominance behavior for them, and not a gay one. They do not fall in with Bonobo apes, certain species of birds (including penguins), dolphins, etc...

It isn't PC to accept homosexuality. PC is an ugly concept that encourages hypocrisy. It's just a matter of not treating others as though they are somehow second class citizens for living their life in a way that doesn't conform to your world view.

I wonder if someone asked them if they were gay, or if they came out themselves...

My dog will hump pillows, legs, male dogs, you name it.

Does that make him gay too?

I love the new politically correct world. It makes reality a lot more funny.

I would agree with just a guy. Lots of gay people have the urge to become parents.

'despite being gay the three year old male birds are still driven by an urge to be dads.'

This is no different in humans.

(Well, except being older than 3... and I'm guessing most humans would not steal children.)

Have you ever seen the movie March of the Penguins? The penguins whose babies didn't make it were trying to lure baby penguins from their parent. This often lead to a big fight where all the penguins in the area would try to get the baby back. I'm not surprised the males do it, they take care of the babies just as much as the mothers, so the instinct is strong.

Same-sex sexuality is well-chronicled in the cat kingdom. It really doesn't surprise me that flightless birds might develop that trait.

This would not have happened if China had passed a law forbidding gay couples from adopting like Arkansas/Saudi Arabia/Sudan did.

Fathers who lose their chicks are just as likely to have the same behaviour. In the end, it comes down to the biological need to be a parent, not the sexuality.
