1) No genetic evidence for homosexuality, so the premise is flawed. As far as science is concerned, you are not born gay, you are made gay later in life, by a traumatic event which damages you.
2) That being said, it's quite clear that Sarah would not abort a baby for a silly reason like homosexuality, but many Liberals would.

Many liberals believe there is a gay gene. Remember, science can give validation to anything. /s

No, I think gay has something to do with hormones. Or a vitamin deficiency. It’s a mental illness, and it should be treated like bipolar, or schizophrenia, with medicines. Some think it’s bacteriological, that gut flora imbalances restrict the ability to absorb certain nutrients that are required precursors of certain hormones. Whatever it is, it’s clearly an illness and it can be treated with medical science.

One of the most glaring defects in his argument is that if the parents of a downs syndrome baby could, they would completely reverse and obliterate this disease in their child. Even if not, they don't "embrace" the disease, but do everything in their power to mitigate it.

The same could be said of homosexuality, given the false premise that it is an inborn disease.

Just because science has not discovered a genetic basis for homosexuality does not mean the premise is flawed. You would presume that genetic science on this and other cause-and-effects is settled and complete? It is not.

I believe in our lifetime, science will find a biological basis for homsexuality. (Although there may also be cases caused by behavioral conditioning and sexual abuse, even personal choice, etc)

Those of us who have had homosexuality “run in the family”, or know other families where it runs from generation to generation, sometimes for many generations dating back a century or more (known), know that something is inherited or passed along .... whether is a gene or a brain chemistry or brain structural abnormality, a predisposition. Ditto with inherited depression, bipolarity, schizophrenia, other conditions that originate from the brain.

And that it manifests at a very early age.

I also believe homosexual activists may not want science to discover this because it could lead to pre-birth extermination, as is happening with Downs babies.

Many years ago there was a militant lesbian who advocated aborting all male babies to prevent them from growing up and oppressing women. I’ll never forget that angry, twisted face of hers.
