For Darwinians, evolution and natural selection would eventually weed out homosexuality (or at least keep it marginalized) since reproduction is not possible unless you believe a few million years of homsexuality would eventually evolve the particular species into asexual beings. For Creationists, it is a moral issue.

You are defining homosexuality as unnatural because you cannot reproduce in a homosexual relationship. Besides not actually being true in nature it also sets a subjective measure to which you want to apply what is natural.

If homosexuality is a result of natural causes - Message #1170059 - then it is part of nature and hence natural. Whether a particular trait eventually disappears or not does not make that trait any more or less natural.
