>>Which Science are you talking about - the type that was manipulated and fabricated by Charles Darwin in the 19th century, that the advent of the human existence on earth was a function of a [one-off] gradual metamorphoses of the ape to a human being, otherwise known as Evolution? << (Pastor Ọkala)
Here’s the clearest, evidence‑based answer grounded in what mainstream science actually says.🌐 Short, Formal SummaryThe formal scientific position is that homosexuality is a natural, normal variation of human sexuality, not a disorder, disease, or pathology.This position is held across all major medical, psychological, psychiatric, and biological research bodies worldwide.🧬 What Science Formally Concludes🧠 1. Homosexuality is not a mental illnessEvery major scientific and medical authority—including the American Psychological Association (APA), American Psychiatric Association, World Health Organization (WHO), and National Institutes of Health—classifies homosexuality as non‑pathological.• It was removed from the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) in 1973.• WHO removed it from the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) in 1990.These decisions were based on decades of research showing:• No cognitive, emotional, or social impairment associated with homosexuality.• No evidence that homosexuality is caused by trauma, parenting style, or social contagion.🧬 2. Sexual orientation has biological rootsModern research shows that sexual orientation is influenced by genetic, prenatal, and neurobiological factors.• A large genome‑wide study of nearly half a million people found multiple genetic regions associated with same‑sex behavior.• Brain structure differences have been observed between heterosexual and homosexual individuals.• No single “gay gene” exists; instead, orientation is polygenic, like height or personality.🐒 3. Homosexual behavior is natural and widespread in animalsSame‑sex behavior is documented in over 1,500 animal species, including:• Bonobos• Dolphins• Chimpanzees• Albatrosses• Zebra finchesThese behaviors serve social, bonding, and cooperative functions—not confusion or captivity artifacts.This directly refutes claims that homosexuality is “unnatural.”🌈 4. Sexual orientation exists on a continuumScientific reviews show that human sexuality is not strictly binary.People may be:• exclusively heterosexual• mostly heterosexual• bisexual• mostly homosexual• exclusively homosexualThis continuum model is supported by psychological and biological evidence.🧒 5. Sexual orientation is not a choiceResearch consistently shows:• Early childhood gender nonconformity predicts later non‑heterosexual orientation across cultures.• Political or moral beliefs do not change orientation; they only change how people interpret it.🧭 So What Is the “Formal Position of Science”?Putting it all together:✔ Homosexuality is natural✔ Homosexuality is biologically influenced✔ Homosexuality is not a disorder✔ Homosexuality is not a choice✔ Homosexuality is part of normal human diversityThis is the consensus across biology, psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience, and evolutionary science.If you want, I can also break down:• How evolutionary biology explains the persistence of homosexuality• Why some societies historically accepted or rejected it• The difference between scientific consensus and cultural/religious positionsJust tell me which direction you want to explore.
