Which brings me
to, from a religious viewpoint that homosexuals are acting out of
sin because they are using their bodies as an object instead of the
intended purpose of procreation. This is similar to the above
argument, but different because it brings about other questions,
such as, is masturbating wrong? |
We don’t stand
on the corners with signs telling him he is sinning or going to hell
or strip him of his basic rights as a human being.
Maybe in
some instances it could be argued that it is because of the fact
that heterosexual couples, often times, are having sex within the
sanction of marriage. However, how can one fault a homosexual couple
for having sex outside of marriage, when marriage is not even a
legal option? So, even if a homosexual couple may agree with this
claim, that sex outside of marriage is immoral, they don’t even have
to opportunity to act morally. Not even according to their own
standards, let alone anyone else’s. This point also seems to be
overlooked, that even if the world as a whole agreed that sex was
only moral within the unity of marriage -- then homosexuals, by law
in this case, are forced to either act immorally, or suppress who
they truly are. |
