14:29 by FoxTwo Normally I'm pretty open to ideas.
I don't really give a hoot if my friends are straight or gay. It's just their sexual orientation and it has no bearing on me, as long as those who are homosexual understand that I am HETERO-sexual and leave me out of their relationships. That applies to both the male and female variety of homosexuals, popularly called "gays" and "lesbians" by the masses respectively.
But this petition to repeal the law against homosexuals, somehow I do not agree with it in principle. While homosexual people have feelings too, making it legal is not the way to go. Here's an analogy. If you are a drug user and you're hooked on heroin, and you know a few hundred other people who are the same as you, would you get a petition going and try to get heroin legalised?
I'm not going to quote religious texts. I know many of those who are opposed to this (like I am) saying being homosexual is satanic etc. I'm usually logical, and believe more in science than in religion. In this case, a species has a male and female component, and they both need to be attracted to each other to achieve one thing - produce offsprings, "new versions" of themselves. It's part of the evolutionary process.
I believe homosexuality also may exist in the animal kingdom too... and I regard those as "defective genes". Animals that are homosexuals will not produce offsprings, and their line will die out due to natural selection. This is how nature keeps a balance - those "weaker" ones will fail and die off.
Now along comes the human. S/he's homosexual, and s/he wants to mate with the same sex. I say, let 'em go do each other. They'll die out eventually, and this time, LEGALLY (but it's actually a bit of a waste - some lesbians are really beautiful... too bad they only like other women, ah well!). While they're at it, it'd be a good idea to make some money along the way - open up gay porn sites and charge memberships :)
As for me, I'm not signing the petition to repeal it. I'm betting it'll fail anyway, and the law stays.
