Let's give homosexuals the benefit of the doubt and say for the moment that homosexuality truly IS genetic, and not deriving from confusion of gender roles or alternative upbringing as is commonly believed by most straights. As a sexual species, mutation is the key to our evolution, but sometimes people are born with mutations that would-be sexual mates try to veer away from to pass on to their offspring (naturally missing appendages, weak skeletal structure, etc.). No one can really say what homosexuality is doing to human SOCIETY (and I'm not trying to make any claim), but let's be honest with ourselves, it must be recognized that homosexuality is hurting the human SPECIES. An unwanted genetic trait that prohibits an individual to pass on his genes to the next generation could be ANYTHING and is rare and varied, but why is a gene as destructive as sexual attraction to the same sex as rampant as it is?
