Here's the link. This is standard apologetics/logic stuff:

I would tighten up his words to say "homosexual sex is unnatural" rather than homosexuality, which would just imply the attractions. I'm consistently trying to make a distinction between the feelings and the acts, the former not being a sin, and the latter being a sin, at least in my grounding of it.

To me, this is like looking at a pile of hex nuts and bolts, and thinking it's totally normal to try to use two hex nuts to assemble a bookshelf. Can you put two hex nuts next to each other? Sure you can. But it's obvious it's "off the mark" of how nuts and bolts were designed to be used in conjunction with each other.

And by the way, this is not an argument related to procreation. I'm just talking about the design for use, not what's produced from the designed use.
Trapped - that linked article was a pretty cerebral argument that I didn't completely follow part of the time, but I believe I get the point.

That's interesting . . . have to think about that for a bit. The gay man acknowledged that one sexual part (female) was designed for another part (male), but is choosing to ignore that fact and go against the design purpose, in order to have a romantic relationship with another man. Hmmmmmm
