NCB, as far I understand it, this statement is categorically false. Weather patterns are undeniably normal. It rains, it shines, tornados form, and so do hurricanes. There are entire University Departments dedicated to why and how weather patterns occur. Such The University of Illinois Department of Atmospheric Science. Corrosion is a completely natural process, and yet there are entire societies dedicated to studying and understanding it, such as NACE. Homosexuality is completely normal, in the sense that it occurs naturally. It exists. It may not be "normal" in the sense of adhering to the average behavior, but that doesn't make it some twisted perversion of reality, any more than having red hair or being left-handed.

As far as indoctrination of our youth into homosexuality via sex education, I just don't really buy it. As I remember sex ed, the teachers were uncomfortable, the students were uncomfortable, and there were no seminars on sexual technique or practices. I was pretty close with most of my teachers, and from playing various sports I knew all the coaches. In our schools, it was usually the gym coaches who ended up teaching sex ed as a part of physical education. Despite the fact that I had demonstrably heterosexual gym coaches all the way through high school, I never had one of them teach me how to give oral sex to my girlfriend, or suggest that missionary style wasn't the way to go. No bondage discussion, no role playing, no "Superman takes on WonderWoman with the Lasso of Truth Session" discussions. I don't doubt some of these guys tied their wives up and played Erik the Red pillages the coast of Iceland, but somehow they never got around to sharing these secrets with me. Now you're seriously telling me that one of these guys, if required to mention that you aren't a complete freakjob if you have homosexual leanings in highschool, or that its not a huge deal and there's no reason to beat each other up over it, etc - that my old soccer coach would have been trying to secretly get me juggle eggsacks in my cheeks? I really just don't think so. I don't really recall any direct discussion of actual sexual practices, beyond how to avoid disease and if you get a lump on your nut, you should probably have a doctor take a look at it.

This whole thing is just a distraction from the primary issue raised in these threads, which is that there is no solid rational reason to deny homosexuals the right to settle down into the house with the picket fence, dog and a cat with 1-1/2 kids.

edit: shit will, can you just get out of my mind for second post-jinx.
