On Nature- Biblical

Today's lecture prompted me to think about how ideas of nature & natural have been appropriated (or misappropriated) by portions of the modern religious conservative movement. The following is a short, interesting piece from a former priest. It has some good quotes from the Bible on ideas of homosexuality being 'unnatural' as well as some other citations. Check out the comments, too, since the readers add yet more Biblical quotations (and a lot of interesting opinions).
