It is a natural anomaly, apparently.
It isn't thought up by humans, else animals wouldn't do it.
So, since it does happen in nature, why have such big problems with it? (and if you believe in god as the creator of everything, then he also created homosexuality)
I have nothing against homosexuals as long as they don't bother me with their sexual feelings. They don't hate us for being heterosexual, do they?
Also, accordng to you, we should also kill/remove handicapts etc from socety, as that is oblviously wrong, there are so few that it is just an anomaly. (NOTE: this is just ment as example, not my opinion)

Wow... the "It happens in nature so it must be ok" argument.
I can't believe you actually support the idea of killing your own children ( http://en.allexperts.com/q/Wild-Animals-705/heard.htm ), Wife's murdering their husbands when they are done with them (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preying_mantis and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_widow_spider ).
Remember, those are natural too, so when humans do it, it should be ok! (Based solely on the "It happens in nature so it must be ok" argument, of course)

1 Corinthians 6:9
" 9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God."
So no, While Jesus does indeed love all of us, he draws a line in who will, and won't inherit eternity with him.
Our response should be to turn away from these evils, repent and follow his ways and instructions.
And for you OT quasi-theologians: The OT was abolished when jesus died and instituted the new covenant. Paul tells us that the "what was written" ie the OT is for our edification and instruction but makes it clear we are no longer bound by it or its laws.
And before someone brings up the thief on the cross: Jesus promised him paradise BEFORE he died (and thus under the OT Covenant of Moses) and instituted the New Covenant so he didn't have to be baptised per Acts 2:38. The OT was to make Isreal aware of sin, not save them. Jesus and the sacrifice he made are the redemptive work and everything in the OT was in preperation for and fulfillment of that one act.

I hate to point this out, after all the watching animals hump each other those researches must have done, but animals also hump pillows and just about anything they can get on top of when they are horny because they simply don't care. ANYTHING If you get what I am saying.
Also, I don't think this is so much about them being gay, as it is more or less they are trying to mock the Christian religion. That is what makes it wrong.

i agree, shallow and pedantic
Oderint, dum metuant.
It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. - Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt

No, you fool. Outright attacks on religious depictions is.
For example if I were to paste an anti gay slur here that would be an attack.
And my whole point is that this is hardly on a level of burning christians in the street and not worth the attention it's getting.
Stuff like this happens every day to christians but if we place the ten commandments in a court of law the rainbow warriors come out of the woodwork.
