HOMOSEXUALITY

INTRODUCTION
Homosexuality is word often or simply defined as the attraction to one’s the same sex; like male to male and female to female. Even before homosexuality does exist. In fact theologically speaking, it has been tackled also in the Bible. Particularly in the book of Samuel (I Samuel 20:17) in which Jonathan base from the verse “Jonathan made David promise to love him, for Jonathan love David as much as he loved himself.”

Through the years we were led to believe that being a gay (other term for male homosexuality) is a mortal sin towards the will of God. But science tells that it is just a matter of environment affection, which leads to developed through the years and also it is clearly stated that being a homosexual is also a matter of “metal aberration”, which means homosexual particularly had a problem regarding their brains.

One fact that proves that it occurs before, is that apes has been doing mutual masturbatory activities that seems to be homosexuals in humans. Even today it is also happening and most of it are humans.

DESIGN OF THE STUDY
After we chose our topic about homosexuality, we design a special questionnaire that was different from the other studies conducted. For a particular we had these questions and ocular inspections through the studies had been done.

Example of the Questions: 1. What can you say about the new generation?

2. What can you say about the new administration?

Well do you think this is out of the study? But this was as from the respondent it is merely because to help us or we should know if the homosexuals are open to what is happening within the society and within their environment. Also, we did ocular inspections such as is the respondent tidy or untidy and also we take notice if the respondent is well disciplined.

The same, we did inspections if the respondent have his/her personal

    The way we view homosexuality has very much to do with how we were raised and taught depending on where we are from, our parents beliefs and what others around us tell us. Because of this we believe what we believe and will stand by them unless we ourselves come to a different conclusion as we grow older. I was raised a Catholic and was taught by the Bible teachings that homosexuality was wrong and will go to hell if that is what you practiced. In this paper we will look a little at the historical and scientific perspectives of homosexuality.…

    Many areas of science resolve the issue of homosexuality as a sexual ethics dilemma by analysing the causes of homosexuality. Sigmund Freud claimed that homosexuality is a personality disorder resulting from a person’s failure to deal with repressed issues of sexuality from infancy and to develop fully into mature sexuality. He claimed that the causes of homosexuality simply trace back to the relationship between a child and their parents. Many researchers believe that homosexuality may be the result of an imbalance of the hormones or a genetic disorder. Both these arguments go some way to solving this dilemma as both conclusions suggest that homosexuality is not a moral choice and cannot be prevented or supressed.…

    Homosexuality is defined as the romantic, sexual attraction and or sexual activity involving members of the same sex. It is considered one of the three categories of sexual orientation, next to bisexuality and heterosexuality. View from an orientation point of view, homosexuality refes to “an enduring disposition to experience sexual, affectionate, or romantic attractictions” primarily or exclusively to people of the same sex. Scientifically and medically speking, homosexuality is not viewed as a choice more than complex mixture of biological and enviromental factors, that start from very early in the development of the human such as the uterine enviroment. In the contrary to this many people believe homosexual activity is “unnatural” or many people have called it “dysfunctional”. Even though many research has shown over the years that homosexuality is a normal and natural varitation in human sexuality and is not a product of any psycological dissorder. Whereas discrimination against homosexual and bisexual people have shown to causse psycological harm, especially in children who are either homosexual or bisexual.…

    Is homosexuality a genetic trait we’re born with, or do we choose this lifestyle? Is it a lack of father and a more involved mother? Why do people think this is abnormal? There are so many questions that people have about homosexuality, their beliefs on it, and why they think it is wrong or right. I have heard so many people say, “It’s Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.” Why does religion have a profound effect on why people believe that homosexuality is wrong; that homosexuals are automatically doomed to hell? Gay people have lived a daunting life for centuries because people think that being homosexual is out of the “norm” and that God created everyone to procreate. God created everyone equal, and he taught us to love one another. People often wonder, and I have personally been told this,” that people choose this lifestyle. The story,” Foundations of the Earth”, provides the reader with a vivid image on religion and homosexuality. People use religion to answer many of life’s problems, especially when it comes to moral topics such as homosexuality; whether it’s right or wrong, negative or positive.…

    In our day and age, being of a sexual orientation other than heterosexual is somewhat common. Though it is definitely not considered a norm, it is more accepted in most parts of the world. A few years ago, people who were not heterosexual had to hide who they really were in order to be accepted by society. Because of this norm, one automatically assumes they are straight whether it comes to themselves or others. So how do homosexual/asexual people become conscious of their sexual orientation?…

    Scientists feel that by studying families who consist of both homosexual and heterosexual members will be the key to discovering what gene(s) can be attributed to homosexual predisposition. There was a study done on some male rats where they were given injections that blocked the male hormones as fetuses. Those rats developed normally but later developed a sexual attraction to other males. A scientist named Simon LeVay studied the brain and found that some of the differences between homosexual and heterosexual males were the same as differences noted between men and women brains.…

    Every other scripture that speaks of homosexuality talks of a male being with another male. Romans 1:26 says "Their women exchanged natural intercourse for unnatural" which shows that the women were once heterosexual because they exchanged natural ways, meaning being with men, to be with women. Romans 1:27 says "and in the same way also the men, giving up natural intercourse with women, were consumed with passion for one another. " If the men gave up women, they too, were once heterosexual. The fact that both men and women gave up the opposite sex and went for same sex does not mean that they were going against their nature.…

    Homosexuality is at the front lines of the nature versus nurture debate. Many studies have been conducted, but a clear cause has yet to be found. Anti-homosexuals, consisting mainly of religious groups, believe that homosexuality is abnormal, unnatural, and can be changed. Because of their beliefs, homosexuality must be a learned behavior. Whether homosexuality is biological or learned behavior is still a mystery, but scientists are finding more evidence to suggest the former.…
