I don't think anybody mentioned "Natural Law". I mentioned it so people could understand the main source of the ideology that some hold in our society of homosexauality as being wrong. Understanding the source of the ideology helps people make informed decisions and arguments.Krusshyk wrote:Just so we are all clear here and there is no confusion...
I never mentioned "natural law" nor do I agree with anything it implies. Natural Law (I think one of St. Thomas Aquinas' personal favorite topics) is based solely on religious interpretation of how things "ought to be".
Is there a way things "ought to be"? Sure. Is it what Aquinas envisioned? Not from where I am sitting, no.
Here we have the best process to test our moral yardstick. When it's done in a civil manner, then I have no problem.
I have to admit that the ideology of Natural Law is a step in the right direction in finding the fundamental truths because it acknowledges that human laws and the fundamental truths are not the same.
Now that you've clarified yourself, I think we're actually hold closer to the same opinion than we thought.
