An apparent homosexual penguin couple at a zoo in Germany have been documented raising a chick from an egg that had been abandoned. Earlier the two had been observed mating. This is just one more addition to the many examples of homosexuality among animals who do not have the ability to choose. How much longer will some people insist that homosexuality is a choose?

We watch the "Dog Whisperer" and "Dog Town" and we see dogs mounting other dogs to show that they are the boss. It is nothing about homosexual dogs, it is the same as men raping old ladies and children to show that they are dominant. It is about power. The same premise, nothing about s*xual preference. After all there are some men who would have it with corpses because they cannot fight back.
That guy was off his rocker. He saw what he wanted to see and interpreted as he wanted to interpret it.

Hi suspenseful, Thank you for your thoughts but there are thousands of documented cases of homosexuality among animals. Not just one person at the zoo is saying this and I'm sure they know about animals. Those who still believe that homosexuality is a choice are grasping at straws. Blessings.

Guess this will just add to the fuel that homosexual use to make people think it is ok. Fine with me if that is the way they want to live their lives but you will never make me believe they are born like that know too many of them that says different.

If this isn't nature, then I don't know what is. Too bad humans are as evolved in their thinking as animals are. I know that sounds like an ironic statement, but animals know well enough to do what works for them. Humans still hasn't figured this out yet. Why can't people just leave people alone, when they do what works for them, and are not hurting anyone?

Hi danishcanadian, Thank you for commenting and we agree. Unfortunately, I think much of the problem, in the western world at least, lies with fundamentalist Christians. They accept the Bible literally and as long as they do this, nothing will change them. The Roman Catholic Church also refuses to budge in their condemnation of Homosexuality although many in the church feel differently. We can only hope that the next generation will not be as indoctrinated as their parents are today. Blessings.

Nobody would choose to be a homosexual instead of heterosexual
since is so difficult to be different in this society. There
is still so much discrimination against gays in this society
,and is really shameful to be so moralistic and denied gays
the right to be happy.

Pose-
Oh what a story you have to share about the communal living that exists even in nature, and be it homosexual or heterosexual chicks are raised with love. I too wonder how long our society will let a very old dogma, and outdated doctrine rule our very sentient being to the point of being so intolerant, so judgemental, and so contrary to our very basic instincts.
I do know this is such a volatile subject, and must be handled with care, yet I someone just want to shout for everyone to accept this and look at the loving parents there are in all communities. It is not that I am naive to things occuring that are negative, but at times I feel it is all our socity focuses on. We have somehow lost touch with the joys of life, created negatives, and have lived in a mire because of it.
I wish you well dear friend. Namaste-Anora

Hi Anora, Thank you for this and I know you to be a kind and compassionate person. I agree that it is a volatile subject, but there are those who refuse to see the truth that is staring them in the face. It has been shown that gays and lesbians make wonderful parents, yet so many will not believe it. Many people are turning away from Christianity because they see such hatred where there should be love. Blessings.

I think certain people look at it like molding of the mind. As if it were something taught to you. The fact that humans are hating on other humans, just because they aren't into that too, is ridiculous. Humans have the right to be free and be whatever kind of person that they want to be. People don't have such a strong hate for people that hand glide, it's not like you'll ever see them hand glide, so why would you hate them for it? Peace and love to every creature and everything.
