Sorry Brian It was the fundies

Answer 1

I love it, that's such a beautiful story!

I have a pair of lesbian cats and I wouldn't separate them for any reason. They love each other dearly, spending every moment together grooming each other and enjoying themselves.

That's what this is really all about, you know. Love. It doesn't matter who you love or what they believe, it matters only that they love you in return.

Answer 2

Choice doesn't apply to instinct, but you knew I thought that I'm sure.

Surely you were asking the FUNDAMENTALIST Christians? That's only about 1/3 of self identified Christians from most surveys.

Answer 3

May we not say that some may act on a superior moral principle, and that because there are those who clearly diminish the sum of human misery? It is impossible to settle the idea of suicide in concrete instances, because there is no fixed external test. The conduct may spring either from cowardice or from a loftier motive than the ordinary, and the merit of the action is therefore not determinable; but, assuming the loftier motive, I can see no ground for disapproving the action, which flows from it.

Answer 4

I'm really not Christian but this was a great story. Love is not bound by physical bodies.

Answer 5

I read this earlier and will give the same answer: I know a few homosexual couples that make so better parents than heterosexual couples.....why would animal kingdom be any different...... a beautiful story.... There is no choice... its genetics.....

Answer 6

Just one example of millions like this, it's the amazing diversity of nature...without variation none of us would exist.

Answer 7

Researches made on animals confirm the hypothesis that homosexuality is innate.


Were you expecting an intelligent reply by Christians?

Answer 8

At times gay activists will use the animal kingdom to support the link between naturalism and human sexuality, and yet when Silo ... took up with a female penguin, the gay activists were downplaying the importance of that," Throckmorton told Baptist Press. "... You can't have it both ways. It either means something or it doesn't."

Several years ago, when the news about Roy and Silo's "gay relationship broke," liberal activists quickly pointed to it as a supporting argument for "gay marriage" in the human world.

"[I]f Roy and Silo can do it, why can't humans?" Gersh Kuntzman of the New York Post wrote in an online March 2004 column at Newsweek's website. "Indeed, if homosexual marriages exist in the animal kingdom, they must be normal."

But Throckmorton said neither side of the "gay marriage" debate should "read too much into" the relationship between Roy and Silo -- whether the two penguins are together or apart. Indeed, there are reports of other "same-sex penguins" in the Central Park Zoo.

There are "numerous" instances of animal behavior that shouldn't be emulated, he said.

"What we shouldn't do is commit the naturalistic fallacy that if it's natural then it's morally acceptable," Throckmorton said. "I don't get my moral reasoning from watching the barnyard. I get my moral compass from other places. If I want to know what's moral, I go to church. I don't go to the barnyard

Answer 9

Awsome.

Answer 10

Flamingos don't have souls because they're animals and can't know their creator. So I don't think they're going to hell or heaven. I do believe homosexual acts are sinful, but being gay is certainly not a one way ticket to hell, it's just a different type of cross to bear. God wants us to love each other no matter what we are. To shun people for something like that is just as sinful.
