Rokenn - You are missing the entire point.

Sir Kenyth was rebutting an earlier comment that homosexuality is part of the "natural order" since some animals exhibit this behavior. He correctly pointed out that (especially in animal species), homosexuality is UN-natural since it would eventually cause a species to die out if it were practiced regularly. Yorick also correctly pointed out that animals do not have the intelligence required to control their base instincts and urges. They just act on them. I've seen dogs jump on female dogs, male dogs, and even cats...there is certainly nothing "natural" about that..other than the fact that it is "natural" for a dog to be incapable of controlling it's sex drive.

Fortunately, humans have better control than this (most of the time anyway ). Just because we feel a sexual attraction to someone does not mean we have to act on it. I see many women that I find attractive, and more than a few I wouldn't mind having sex with, but I've made a commitment to one woman to only have that level of intimacy with her.

As Yorick said, "Love does not equal sex, and sex does not equal love".
