Even as someone who takes little interest in "gay rights", I can't help but wonder how exactly homosexuals are harming themselves. For that matter, of your own volition, pain and pleasure are parts of life and only a child-like mind thinks one equates total badness and the other total goodness -- so even if they were inflicting damage to themselves (which just isn't true), can it be any worse than the damage of circumcision (an act I do not oppose). Frankly, I don't give a toss what people do in bed (straight or otherwise) -- I really don't want to be privy to those things. But seriously, how are gay people inflicting "untold damage" to themselves and others? Additionally, could I request that you answer using scientific, non-biblical sources to cite your claims?

As for the whole circumsizion debate. As I've said, I happen to be quite content that I underwent the procedure - but I also think it should be a choice left to adults to do to their own body. That being said, I'd be also curious if you think that a) being uncircumsized is somehow "faulty" and if so b) how you can rationalize this (again, using non-religious sources.)

The bible should never be the end all be all of an argument - especially since there are a great many posters here who aren't even christian.
