All of these animals are homosexual and some apes even practice oral and anal sex. What do you think about this? do you think these animals choose to be homosexual? what does this say about human's free will. Are the thing humans do actually chosen or do we act on impulse? how thin is the line between animals and humans? Animals can build shelter and even have complex language patterns
What do you think it means to be human?(how are we different from animals)
Your answers will help a paper assignment im doing!!!!

God says this is an excellent point. Mankind is an animal, but he has been given self awareness to set himself apart from all my other animals. In some cases this has worked well, but in others .... well you only have to look at some of the questions in this forum to see the results..... self awareness this should be the primary focus of your studies. God likes this question and has added 5 years to your alloated life span!

Sexual orientation is natural and can't really be controled. But that doesn't mean that we don't have free will. We also can't control race, gender, height--lots of different things about us. Free will has to do with what we do, who we are, and why we do it, not what we are. There are things about ourselves beyond our control, but that does not mean that there are no things that we *can* control.
Difference between humans and other animals? Animals generally act just on instinct and impulses. Humans can plan ahead, reason logically, and make more complex decisions. We have less instict and impulse because we can think about how to deal with situations and more easily learn from experiences (or, even more unique to humans, learn from the experiences of other people or even animals) to deal with the same or similar situations better in the future.

I think they demonstrate that homosexual and bisexual desires are natural, instinctual for some members of a species, and inborn. And in the cases of penguins and bonobos, also extremely cute. I'm bi, and I became interested in this topic when my female cat mounted another neighbor's female cat as a kitten in her first heat.
That said, we need to be very careful about using other animals as models for behavior. Pandas (which I dearly love), when they have twin cubs, leave one twin to die and concentrate on the other. Only in captivity do both twins survive. And there are 84,000 other examples of behaviors that are acceptable to other animals, that wouldn't be to us.
We're different because we can think through the ramifications of our behavior, not just go on instinct.

It means nothing more and nothing less than exactly what it is, a phenomenon found in nature.
A dolphin eats fish so what does that say about mankind also eating fish? Same type of question.
Any answer beyond that point calls for speculation, which is rarely objective.

this demonstrates that all creatures, human and non-human, are acting as they were naturally created. there isn't a choice, they/we are born this way. it's who we innately are.
