Homosexuality

[Hadrianus]

What’s natural law? All the definitions I’ve seen are entirely subjective and depend on the person’s interpretation of things, apart from buffalo’s definition which states that God gave everyone morals or something.

So, can someone tell me, once and for all, what natural law is?

This is actually more difficult than it may seem at first glance.

In Catholic theology “Natural Law” refers to “the participation of human reason in the divine eternal law.” Cf St Thomas Aquinas. It is fairly close to the Platonic conception which is that of an ideal objective moral order which can at least in theory be known by reason.

In English usage the term usually refers to the “Laws of Nature” by which is denoted the concept that each being acts in accordance with its nature. Obviously, this definition doesn’t work so well when dealing with human beings who possess choice, and thus complex natures.

Unfortunately, in debate people tend to confuse these two definitions frequently.

For starters how about the earliest reports of aids (before we knew it was aids) was found in practicing homosexual men in america? Homosexual relations are physically harmful to ones body and often times deadly. That should show how abnormal such physical unions are, regardless of ones belief in God. That’s science folks.

Sigh, already mentioned a lot of negative effects. She puts the love over the all the negative things.

LOL. She got a bunch of her friends to back her up and make me into shark bait. I’m trying to befriend them.
Do you think it would be prudent for me to get my back-up too, I mean some other friends who are more knowledgeable about this? Thank-you all.

In Christo.
