Homosexuality and Law

We've heard a lot of commotion recently about homosexuality. We've heard controversial stands. We've heard studies that support homosexuality as a good thing. We've read research that labels homosexuality as wrong. It's not just a new topic of discourse - it's an age-old question that has haunted humanity for years. What of homosexuality? Is is good, bad, neutral? Many questions have been raised in my own mind, some being heard from others, some arising out of my own thought.

Questions like:
Is homosexuality wrong? If it is, why? Who says?
Isn't it just personal preference?
Doesn't the Bible approve of homosexuality?
Aren't some people just born that way?
Is homosexuality natural?
What if homosexuality is just another link in the evolutionary chain?

In the spring of 2009, I began a journey, a journey in search of the answers to my questions. I looked here; I explored there. Several ideas were not satisfactory solutions to what seemed to be a deeper issue. Finally, my journey led me to the face of Law - not the United States' Legislature - but higher order laws (if such exist) which might inform our thinking on the issue of homosexuality. I invite you to join me as I conclude my journey and begin to find answers to my questions, in Homosexuality and Law.
