Why is Racism Unacceptable but Homophobia is Acceptable?

I am well aware our genome is complex, but this has absolutely no relation to your blind assumption that homosexuality isn't genetic. If it is just your prejudiced opinion then fine, I'm happy for you to be narrow-minded, but don't try and bring science in to back up your argument when you have no idea.

As for the top of the agenda of mankind, I think there are a lot of things going on which are not near the top of the 'agenda'.

I think there is a lot more going on scientifically as well, however that was more of a sidenote to the rest of my post.

Don't try and back up your narrow-minded views with science if there is no science to back them up.

I guessed as much, and consider this a great personal victory - as recently as a few months ago, I probably would have cracked out my grammar nazi helmet and swastika pen, noting down exactly where you misstepped and how you should have proceeded. I'm healing!

oh please do go ahead and explain. my mind is too narrow-minded so it probably wouldn't matter anyway. if you read what i wrote, i didn't state it was genetic, i stated that science could be used to determine if it was genetic. I think its called theorising which happens a lot in science.

There is your original statement. You state it as a fact, not a theory.

As for other things going on in science, universities everywhere are studying a whole variety of different things, ranging from the absurd to ground-breaking technology. This includes a lot of work on DNA and genetics, so if it was possible to determine sexuality through genetics at this point in time, I expect it would have already been discovered.

That has nothing to do with whether homosexuality is a genetic mutation or not.

I also like how you're mixing genetics and religion in the same pot, I'm sure both sides would love that!

sexuality is a choice.

its social conditioning and engineering through society that causes this.

Why is anyone arguing with sandman06? He is either an expert troll or does not have the ability to comprehend basic ideas based on his typing standards, let alone the drivel he is coming out with.

That's like saying in the 1930's to a Jew in Britain who gets beaten up once a week for it "Your lucky to be here mate, if you were in Germany you would be in a concentration camp!"

Race is genetic and normal...Homosexuality/beastiality/paedo is a choice...

Being attracted to the same sex, animals, children is not a choice.

Acting on those attractions is.

There are fairly obvious reasons why acting on bestiality or paedophilic desires harm society and are frowned upon.

Why would consenting sex between two adults of the same gender be a problem for society?

I don't see race, I see us as the "human race" - one race. Just different colours/tans is all the difference. There's pretty much no difference between any type of human being IMO. I know scientifically there are some basic genetic differences but all in all we're all the same.

Homosexuality I just cannot comprehend and I guess because I see it as not "normal" or "natural". Sure, love is love, and love is good and all that and I'd rather 2 people love one another than hate one another. However, I can't help but feel uncomfortable slightly with it. However, whilst I don't want to outcast such people which is absolutely unfair, I can't feel myself wanting to accept it as "normal" and let society accept it as totally "normal".

Though there is a theory that nature is turning more people homosexual owing to over population since clearly it would minimise reproduction. I don't know if I believe it really, but it's feasible.

However, part of me thinks, evolution of society is perfectly normal, and that one has to allow this evolution. The problem isn't with it at all, and I know it's something I have to deal with - I'm just being honest. Also being honest, as long as it's not in my face it doesn't bother me - (out of sight out of mind). Having it perfectly ordinary and thrust around us in society is still not, for me, comfortable or right.
