I just see it as not right. It's not what we are made for. The parts work the way they do for a reason. I do believe in God and I think that creation is the most beautiful thing and I think God meant it to be the way it is. To do otherwise just seems wrong to me. Just because something feels good doesn't mean we should do it.
I don't know. As late as the early 80s a majority of Americans thought that interracial marriage was "just not right" because it was "unnatural." It wouldn't quite be accurate to say a majority of Americans were terrible or immoral because of that. It was just the way they were raised and eventually we overcame it. That's the way I view the struggle for gay rights and acceptance.
Something that feels good should not be done when it has consequences that hurt others especially. If it feels good and it's harming yourself in the long run, that would be ones own choice to make of course and my only intervention would be in making sure the person in question understands what's going on. I see no distinct disadvantage of homosexual sex over heterosexual sex in that regard.
If you have your money sitting on a table and it would feel good to me if I had it should I take it? No, that would be wrong. I love ice cream, I could eat it until I threw up. It would feel good to pig out on it, should I do it? No, our bodies aren't meant to take that kind of abuse, it would be wrong to do it. I can give lots of examples of what I mean. You don't have to agree, but do you understand?
Your examples aren't really comparable to homosexuality though. If you take my money you hurt me economically and that'd be wrong unless you're using it to feed your starving children or something. Two lesbians licking each other is much less likely to hurt anybody than heterosexual sex as no unwanted children are possible and STD transmission is less likely than other forms of sex.
Eating ice cream until you throw up not only wouldn't be too enjoyable, but would not make you feel good in the long run due to poor health. I don't think lesbians who engage in a sexual lesbian relationship are worse off than lesbians who decide to be alone.
