Every characteristic we currently have had played a certain role throughout evolution to help us as a species to survive.

What role had homosexuality played throughout evolution to help our species survive? You haven't answered that.

Not unnatural. Naturally handicapped to reproduce. People who are like this come from fertile heterosexuals, so these people didn't genetically inherit this handicap; they just developed it, unfortunately. Same with homosexuality, people who are like that may come from fertile heterosexual parents, but these people just got their inner sexual attraction mechanism a bit screwed up. Same with pedophiles, "beastophiles", and whatever others there are lol.

The reason why homosexuality isn't as bad as pedophile and beastophile people is that homosexuality doesn't do harm to other beings, but it's still an attraction mechanism anomaly, just like pedophily and beastophily.

Be it animals, plants or humans, evolution doesn't occur based on reproduction alone.
Again, you didn't say what evolutionary roles the homosexuals have in helping our race to perpetuate. Doesn't have to be reproduction necessarily. Tell me a role that only homosexuals -and not heterosexuals- could have had in helping the human race to survive throughout evolution.

Of course it's not unnatural. Their reproductive mechanism is different.

What about a gay scientist who invents some cure to some disease?
You should be the one to think carefully. The people you mentioned are all great people, but what the heck does it have to do with them being homosexual?? If they weren't homosexual, they would very likely be as great as they're now.

Certainly not. There are many other mechanisms that help us in evolution like emotions, our senses, muscles, intelligence, etc. But how does homosexuality help us? It's probably just one more one-generation genetic anomaly that anyone with heterosexual parents could be born with.
