In one post you rant about homosexuality not being natural.

Then in the next post compare it to natural birth defects.

Now you've switched gears to a discussion about birth defects.

Birth defects are natural? That's quite a liberal usage of natural.

So you consider sheep that ARE created in a test tube and would never exist outside of laboratory conditions "natural". Figures.

Once again, quite a liberal application of "natural".

Opposite of what? You aren't being clear. Are shepmans natural or not? They exist.

What medical community anywhere calls homosexuality a birth defect? And you can even use Wikipedia if you want.

The "medical community" has voted homosexuality "normal". A behavior issue such as homosexuality wouldn't be listed as a birth defect since it's not diagnosable at birth. But if a person is born homosexual, and many people say they are, it is a defect at birth and therefore a birth defect.

That's my liberal use of a term. Which it turns out ain't that liberal.

Birth defect definition - Medical Dictionary definitions of popular medical terms easily defined on MedTerms
Birth defect: Any defect present in a baby at birth, irrespective of whether the defect is caused by a genetic factor or by prenatal events that are not genetic.
