Moral Quandary

The other day on Chris Matthews' television program, there was a brief discussion about whether homosexuality is immoral. This discourse, though brief demonstrated a severe flaw in western morality. It is not whether homosexuality or any other act is moral or immoral, it is the means by which morality is defined. The general idea being that if one is biologically inclined to certain action that makes it moral. The only problem with this is that if it were consistently applied, it would make pretty much everything moral. Since almost every act is to some existent motivated by our biology. But the problem with this sort of ethical principle is not that it is to broad of vague, it is that its proponents do not consistently apply it. Those who want everything with a biological motivation to ethical at one point will want some other ethical standard at another. The result of course is something wholly arbitrary, and morality as morality is lost.
