That is a good question. There are two reasons why I don't approve of homosexuality. the first is religious. I have done my research on my religion and found it to be true and logical in every sense. Not just followed blindly. In this day and age we need to be willing to question everything. I questioned my religion, and I got answers. The first answer is that God said so in Leviticus 18:22 that homosexuality was an abomination, meaning detestable.
The second reason is pure logic. In addition to most people cringing at the thought of homosexuality and thinking it is detestable, there are more logical reasons as well, for instance so many great and powerful societies like Greece, Roman Empire, Babylonian Empire, Hitler's Germany(yes I know all about effeminate homosexuals in concentration camps, but there is a lot more to it than you think) and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah all coincidentally ravaged by homosexuality before their destruction. Certainly it is not the only reason for a city or nation to be destroyed but it definitely seems to be a contributing factor. I would prefer our country not to be next. In this day and age it seems as though people are so obsessed with sex and their next orgasm, whether gay or straight that we won't be able to see the coming terrorist attacks and armies waiting to destroy us.
See Radical Islam and our porous borders. I think we spend more money on gay parades and pride months than we do on protecting our national security and borders.
There is my reason and you are free to disagree with it.
Those are not researched, scientific answers. Quoting the Bible is not scientific. There isn't any scientific logic behind religion. That's why believers have "faith". Despite every rational reason not to believe, they believe anyway. How can you even begin to claim that you have researched the Christian faith when you've read the Bible and other Christian faith-based sources of information for your research. You believe because you want to believe. Period.
And, where did you get that homosexuality was a contributing factor to the Third Reich and its demise? Or Greece, Rome, or Babylon? Achaeological, and historic research has shown that there were many contributing factors to the decline of those ancient empires, and none of that research concluded that homosexuality was any of those factors. And the Third Reich was destroyed because the Nazis used terror to rule, uniting most of the freeworld against them, and then attacked Russia while still fighting a war in western Europe. And then declared war against the US on top of all of that. And that's just one of the many reasons. However, Hitler didn't try to conquer the world because he was gay. Rampant homosexuality didn't lead Germany into allowing Hitler to wrest power from the German parliament. And to quote the Bible to me and cite it as logical and where you got your "scientific" information for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah is the same as someone quoting the Bhagavad Gita to you and citing it as scientific and logical for reincarnation.
Using religion and the self-righteous claim that your beliefs are the right beliefs, however, IS a contributing factor to the continued oppression of people around the world. You think its wrong for Islamic fundamentalists to lock their women away and hide them in veils and bikuras? I think its wrong that Christians won't allow other people to live the way they want to live despite that those peoples' lifestyles have nothing to do with the Christians and cause no harm. Just because you BELIEVE something does not make it true.
Homosexuals are gay because THEY ARE. They don't choose it. Do you feel sexually attracted to men? I don't. I don't fight daily the desire to have sex with men. I'm attracted to the opposite sex. Homosexuals don't fight daily the urge to have sex with the opposite sex: because they're homosexuals - they are attracted to their own genders. It isn't curable despite what your church tells you. Leave them alone, you big bully.
Believe whatever wingnut, crazy, fundamentalist Christian beliefs you want, but don't make the rest of us live by your beliefs. They aren't hurting anyone. And homosexuals won't destory the United Sates. Germany and Japan didn't and they had powerful war machines and millions of soldiers. The USSR didn't. China can't. C'mon! Are all the butch lesbians going to take up arms against the government, while all the effeminate gay men are nurses to tend to the wounded dike soldiers? Or will God strike us down for allowing people to live their own lives? I'm sure he's up there in heaven just scrutinizing every thought and action of every human being on the planet and, for whatever reason, he doesn't like them gays and he's gonna send'em all stright to Hell to burn for all of Eternity even though he loves them, and he's merciful, and he's the all-powerful, omnipotent ruler of the Universe and can change the rules if he wants to but still he creates gay people.
