I'm not the one who's trying to ignore modern science.

Goofballupagus, you remind me of those religious fundamentalists who dump all over Charles Darwin and evolution in general because, early on, Darwin made a few mistakes—which have long since been corrected, both by him and by later scientists.

It's pretty well established that sexual orientation is genetics based, although, like evolution early on, the mechanism hasn't been fully worked out yet. It appears so far that the Xq28 gene is involved, but there is still work to do yet.

It is unscientific—and pretty foolish—to claim that same-sex orientation is NOT genetic simply because YOU DON'T LIKE IT. For whatever your reason might be!

It is patently obvious that same-sex orientation is NOT a matter of choice.
        
I once asked a gay man of my acquaintance if there was a point at which he chose to be gay. He said definitely not, that even at an early age he knew he was different from other little boys. He went on to say, "Considering the fact that many people regard you with contempt, considering you lower than a garden slug, and that being gay can get you fired from your job, beat up repeatedly—and even killed!—who in the hell would ever chose to be gay?"

Goofball, read up on the Matthew Shepard murder. DO IT!!

Or are you too squeamish?

And stop contributing to the hatred and bigotry. And supplying "justification" for Matthew Shepard's brutalbmurderers!
