August 24, 201214 yr Yeah, again...tell that to Copernicus and Galileo. They hadn't discovered that the Earth orbited the Sun. Heck, it was heretical to even say so, as it went against the church's teachings. Yet, as Galileo put it, "the earth...nevertheless, it DOES move." You're hanging your hopes on the orbit of the earth and sun? Okay. Like I said, you're not going to be convinced, and that's okay. I'll be convinced when there's discernible evidence. It's really a moot point I suppose.

I have said NO SUCH THING. I have only said we cannot say that it isn't JUST because we haven't found it yet. If you're going to dismiss the validity of the Copernican argument, I don't even know what to say. And I'm still waiting on the answer to my Stephen Hawking question.

I have only said we cannot say that it isn't JUST because we haven't found it yet.Yes you can. Here are some things that there are genetic markers found for: Cancer, Diabetes, Downs Syndrome, Graves disease, and the list goes on. Just wonder why homosexuality eludes us?
August 24, 201214 yr Yes you can. Here are some things that there are genetic markers found for: Cancer, Diabetes, Downs Syndrome, Graves disease, and the list goes on. Just wonder why homosexuality eludes us? So, the field of genetics is finished. There is no more to learn. Heck, science is finished. We know all there is to know. It is EXACTLY what Habib said. How arrogent of us to think that we know all there is to know.
August 24, 201214 yr I find it a riot that the same people who use "the no scientific evidence" explanation for homosexuality are the EXACT same people who adamantly believe there is a God. :sssh:

August 24, 201214 yr That's what I'm trying to tell you. I have. It's not there.Ah, but it is...in boatloads.
August 24, 201214 yr I find it a riot that the same people who use "the no scientific evidence" explanation for homosexuality are the EXACT same people who adamantly believe there is a God. :sssh: Why do you find it a riot? If you read this entire dialogue, my contention is there is no genetic code for homosexuality. There's also not a code for heterosexuality. Is there is proof that I'm not aware of? Perhaps. And sure you can google it, and you can read the research that goes along with it, but until there is specific protein correlation through DNA, I'm not buying. All kinds of research suggests. I could understand your point if I said that homosexuality didn't exist when it plainly does. And so does God. But I see where you're coming from.

What answer will be found through science?
