Who is to say it is unnatural? People do what is natural for them. Just because something seems unnatuaral to a homophobic person does not mean it is to a homosexual person. So why should the homophobic person's have more value?

Sexuality is biologically based and completely natural to my understanding - there's no choice involved when you're "attracted" or "aroused" by somebody.

They have to give some excuse for their own unnatural aversion to something that need not even concern them. True homophobes have some deep seated problems (yes, pun intended) that only a shrink can iron out for them. Trouble is, they won't go to a shrink because a shrink will tell them there's nothing unnatural about being homosexual. For those who are homophobes because they can't face being gay themselves, they'd bolt from the shrink's office like someone just shot at them. For people who are just ignorant, it's a losing game because they are sensitive to being wrong about anything, it eats away at their fragile ego.
The only value a homophobic person's strange opinion and stereotyping of gays holds is to use it as an example to our children how NOT to think about people different than them.

Well I'll try to answer your question as unbiased as possible.
Here are three definitions of natural:
1) in accordance with the nature of things:
2) based upon the innate moral feeling of humankind
3) based on what is learned from nature rather than on revelation.
Here ar tWO definitions of unnatural:
1) contrary to the laws or course of nature
2) Deviating from a behavioral or social norm
Now just going off those definitions, it would be considered unnatural. Men and women were made the way they are in order to reproduce, man to man goes against what nature intended therefore considered unnatural.

I believe it is unnatural because two members of the same sex cannot reproduce, so it goes against nature. However, two people of the opposite sex using condoms and birth control pills to prevent from having children during intercourse is also unnatural, and goes against nature. I don't agree with the lifestyle, but I believe everyone has the right to the pursuit of happiness, and no one should be allowed to make restrictions based on annoyances or uncomfortableness. So, I believe it is just an excuse to keep gay people from having the same rights as straight people. That's all it is, just an excuse, because you know some of those same "morally righteous" people are probably in their bedrooms with their wives with whips and chains.

what comes natualy isn't necessarily natural. in regards to reproduction, the survival of plants and animals alike, it is male @ female. it's cool with me if someone doesn't want to be what someone else expects, as long as they are not hurting others. The truth is, every time someone starts a car, in those seconds they have done more damage to this earth and therefore to myself and my neighbors than the kinkiest homosexual has done in his/her bedroom all night long !

With all the different kinds of people in the world what right does anybody have to say what is natural or normal.

The funny thing is the people who say it is unnatural are also the ones preaching abstinence. Now that is unnatural.

It's not an excuse they are being bigots. Lots of the arguments sound very similar to arguments against the Civil Rights Movement. There is no logic, simply bigotry.

do you have to be "homophobic" to find it unnatural for a man to try to use another mans waste disposal shoot for a reproductive organ or the path to such? oh, but it's just for pleasure? I find much greater pleasure in what is natural and productive, a woman! imagine that.
I have homosexual friends, but that doe's not make them natural or normal. I don't fault them or try to change them, but I don't have to believe that their relationship is the natural thing that should happen.

It's just one of many, but we don't have to have any excuses. Certainly, those of who find homosexuality distasteful have every right to feel that way. The Constitution protects our rights to feel any way we choose to regarding any subject.
That being said, we certainly have no right to impose our beliefs or belief system on anyone else. Homosexuals have every right to be who they are and live life as they choose.
But don't expect everyone around you to find it appealing, acceptable, etc., because a great many of us don't.

History has been laced with bigotry and xenophobia. People make war and die over silly differences.
They use whatever the current buzzwords are useful to keep the hate alive - and they are usually pretty insulting because they're designed that way.
Division and hate are the modus operandi of the bigot.
