So, is Lady Gaga right when she sings that you are : "BORN THIS WAY"?

[Mount Athos]

Gene therapy cure coming?

[Arm_Bears]

My, what a convenient coincidence.

[Obadiah]

Garbage. More junk science being used to foist a political view.

[SatinDoll]

No. Homosexuality is a personality disorder based on a deep, hysterical fear of the opposite sex, period. This has been known for over a century.

[MrB]

So... how does it correlate that those with that gene sequence are more likely to be sexually molested as children?

[a fool in paradise]

“Sexual orientation has nothing to do with choice. Our findings suggest there may be genes at play — we found evidence for two sets that affect whether a man is gay or straight.”

crossdressing is genetic? Poppycock. We are born naked. Clothing custom is dictated by culture.

[Guardian Sebastian]

If this is true, I wonder how long it will take before the gays will be pro-life.

[Red Badger]

Let’s just say it’s true for argument’s sake.
If there’s a gene or set of genes, then there will be a test at some time in the future.
Now, if you are a parent and do not want a homosexual baby, what do you do?.......................

[The South Texan]

This thread is gay.

[I want the USA back]

Did they take DNA from 400 pairs of normal brothers and check the results? Scientists call this a “Control.” But these people are not true scientists.

How many normal people have those markers?

[rlmorel]

It is the Holy Grail of the homosexual lobby.

After all, if you cannot help your behavior, how could you possibly be stigmatized for it, no matter what that behavior is?

[C19fan]

I can’t wait for the battle between the abortionist and gays. If this is true then there will be pre-natal testing. Just as with Downs Syndrome abortions parents will want to abort future gays.

[Dead Corpse]

So the Twins where one is gay and the other isn’t don’t come into play here?

This is science folks. If one valid result doesn’t fit your thesis, then your thesis is garbage.

[Alex Murphy]

Researchers say they’ve found more DNA evidence that possibly shows gay men don’t have a choice — that their biological makeup drives them to homosexuality. In a study at Chicago University, researchers looked at DNA chains of 400-plus pairs of gay brothers and found what they said were two distinct bits of genetic material that they claim are linked to homosexuality, The Daily Mail reported.

If true, churches could do genetic screening before hiring someone to be a priest/pastor.

[sickoflibs]

Rush invented ‘the gay gene theory’ long ago.

[lakecumberlandvet]

Homosexuality is a mental disorder. The only question left to be answered: Can this disorder be cured and, if so, how?

[RightFighter]

Being gay is no more a genetic trait than is my preference for white and Asian women.

[informavoracious]

DeBlasio’s wife was “born” homosexual but has chosen heterosexual behavior. Do these genes allow for all 58 gender permutations as listed in Facebook, or are the scientists displaying quaternary bias?

[redangus]

Homosexuals just became the newest, wealthiest and most influential pro lifers in history. What is the Left going to do? If you find out your carrying a homosexual child and can abort it who side does the Left support, a women’s right to choose or the homosexuals right to live.

[Boogieman]

“Sexual orientation has nothing to do with choice. Our findings suggest...”

So their findings only suggest, but they still feel free to announce a definitive statement? These aren’t scientists, they are political advocates.

“But he also added this caveat, The Daily Mail said: “Although this [finding] could one day lead to a prenatal test for male sexual orientation, it would not be very accurate, as there are other factors that can influence the outcome.””

Hmm, does it stop doctors from pushing heavily for abortions when their tests for birth defects are not that accurate? Nope. It won’t stop people from aborting babies that might be gay either.
