    Where do you think we got morality from? Are you one of those jesus types that think god ordained morality when he decided that Eve messed up when she fed Adam an apple?

    You must because to think I am conflating human behavior with morality requires separating human behavior from evolution.

    Sorry, but that religious stuff is also part of evolution.

    This assumption is not true. Even in the bible, there are mention of cities who accepted homosexuality as normal (even incest and rape were sort of normal in some cases). I seem to recall the Romans higher ups embracing having young boy lovers.

    To answer why it was frowned upon in the more modern era, the spread of religions is the major force. Since it is seen as a sin by major religions, therefore it was frowned upon in a lot of societies. So it's not 'naturally' frowned upon. Now, if you had asked, why do many religions frowned upon homosexuality, one of the reasons could be species survival.

    Pockets of cultural acceptance in few societies scattered across the globe and throughout history isn't nearly the critical mass of societies intolerant of homosexual sex throughout history.

    There is no limit on resources that would have those children dying from lack of food or shelter or medical care in the US.

    Somehow I question that it is moral to killed others so your brothers and sisters could all have I-pods and such.

    Nonsense as take note that the Greek took over a large percent of the human race under Alexander the great and even long afterward firmly impress their culture and way of thinking so that to this very day they are an important part of the human race heritage.

    Pockets of cultures indeed when it come to the Greeks.

    Globally and throughout history, I suspect one of the main reasons societal rules or norms established concerning homosexual sex were prohibitive is simply a matter of health. I'm sure the first humans recognized the toxins present in feces. It does stink, after all. That's your first obvious clue. All species use color and smell to recognize danger.

    There is no logical argument for rejecting past dogmas regarding homosexuality. The "freedom" to act on every sexual proclivity has never been and shouldn't now be a reason to dismiss logic.

    You're talking about a small amount of time and space in human history.

    LOL you should take the time to learn a little more of the history of the human race as your hang up on anus sex was not share by many cultures and was not repeat not limited to homosexuals.

    Hell it not even all that uncommon between heterosexuals in the current sex life of Americans

    LOL I gave one example where your statements was not correct and there are other examples where your statements are not correct.

    Your understanding of the history of the human race seem sadly to be lacking.

    The religion sexuality hangs up cause by Christianity is not universal and never had been.

    We're not arguing modern American sexual practices. The subject is the historical acceptance or rejection of homosexual behavior. I suggest one of the reasons for rejecting it is the toxicity of feces. How can a logical person argue against that theory?

    You're wrong. It's been more widely rejected than accepted throughout human history. It's silly to argue otherwise.

    With 6 billion people perhaps now procreation threatens our survival instead of securing it so nature is making gay people to save itself.

    So gay men are sterile? A gay man can reproduce and still be gay.

    Even if he sucks (*)(*)(*)(*) and takes it in the ass? He's not gay?

    What tribe?

    - - - Updated - - -

    Yes I am too. I'm a gay man and I'm raising a family.

    That has more to do with anal sex.

    Actually it's hetersexual that originally and still currently spread HIV.

    So you're saying it's as antiquated as the concept of tribalism? I'd agree

    Well this is very telling, the hatred of homosexuality is antiquated and backward and the people who feel this way are just throw backs. To wit is agree

    Because there is no repeat no evident of such a rejection for any reason other then religion in some cases.

    Whole large and important cultures in history had have no problem with anus sex and that cover gay and straight sex.

    Let see here is another example

    Seems to me you are trying hard to find reasons for the ban on anus sex
    and homosexual sex other then religion and for the most part it does not exist.

    From the drawn of history with cave paintings as proof up to modern time anus sex and homosexual sex had been an accepted form of sex for a large fraction of the human race.

    It more then ok if you have a hangs up about those kind of sex practices but stop trying to find justification for your hangs up.

    dear you may feel it was normal because you don't think or read. Ever heard of science or evolution?? Any species for whom reproduction was not the top priority died out and many of those form whom it was died out anyway. We call this science.

    black sexual behavior has become nonfamilial and this has obviously weakened the black community. The traditional Conservative way to think about love sex family and reproduction was far better. Do you understand or does liberalism prevent you from thinking.

    You said that homosexuality was "frowned upon so naturally for 100,000 years, all over the world, by almost everyone". That is false.
