Scientific experiment suggests that sexual orientation is encoded in our genes

It is not a disease, uberdeft, so this is not a cure - it is intervention and manipulation. With the same technique, they could "cure" blue eyes, red hair, freckles, snub noses, long fingers, etc., none of which are diseases.

It would be nice if we could fix the freaks who engage in pedophilia, coprophagia, bestiality with this technology. Who cares about gays?

no, actually, rather specious BULL**** is most apropos for this deliberately misleading propoganda.

That was the first thing that came to my mind - "But aren't earthworms hermaphrodites?"

This is a mickey and one of today's biggest modern myths: "It could have been done by looking at human genes, which has been done, showing that homosexuality is genetic."

clearly that's the fallacy homo's would want you to "accept" for their utter "helplessness." surely it would make for better appeals to a sympathizing public, IF it were true...only it's simply NOT true. In fact, it is a lie...

And an alluring myth only the homo's keep kicking around like a dead horse they hope will one day eventually get up... *shrug* but there's nothing so simple about sexuality. People choose. That's the intuitive common sense inherent in the sensibilities of most reasonable unselfish and more honest people, who also "choose" to put with these illogical specious bullshit arguments from time to time simply because some fool wants YOU to believe it for HIS own selfish "respects".

Respect should proceed from honesty and truth. Not lies and manipulation.

It always makes me wonder if the people harping on "choice" are bisexual. I'm straight and I definitely never made a choice and I definitely couldn't change my mind and suddenly be gay. Just not possible.

I agree , thebigchuckbowski , I wish i had a choice . I also think that people who repress themselves express it by hating those , like themselves , who are open about that which they repress .

Point number one: Who cares if it is genetic or not. What business is it of mine or anyone elses if a person is gay?

Point number two: Studies that show that genetics have a ROLE, but not a determining factor. This is what the studies show thus far. So let's not make statements like "Studies show that homosexuality is genetic." Echoz was correct about one thing, making false or bloated statements will only win you enemies. The truth always wins out.

I agree with both your points hammywill. Well and succinctly put. and in particular...

"...making false or bloated statements will only win you enemies. The truth always wins out."

...I wish THAT statement of yours alone would grab some MUCH-needed traction, but obviously, truth isn't respected nor handled responsibly in this particular community of liars.

And I totally agree with that great summary this title obviously and falsely intends to convey to the unsuspecting: "So let's not make statements like 'Studies show that homosexuality is genetic.'" Thanks hammywill, and not for agreeing with me, but for letting your own more objective views be known. Much appreciated here.

Echoz, you are welcome. I always think the truth should be ones only weapon. The controversy over homosexuality should not, in my opinion, revolve around whether or not it is a chosen lifestyle or not anyway. It is about whether or not it is anyones business regardless.

ANILMALIA: In your first reply you stated "It is genetic." Implying that it is genes that are the determining factor. The studies thus far can only suggest that they are a CONTRIBUTING factor, but not a determining factor. Let us not pretend that you were saying other than that Genes are what make one homosexual, in the same way Genes determine your eye color. That is simply not proven and is not substantiated by any science thus far.

P.S. Animalia...Genes can determine whether or not someone is more likely to get cancer, but they do not CAUSE cancer. So it is not genetic, though there are contributing genetic factors.
