Sure, LeVay's opinion is his and his alone, yet LeVay is a:
  1. homosexual
  2. activist
  3. scientist
LeVay has stated he never found a gay gene. LeVay has also stated gay activism was the reason behind the APA declassifying homosexuality as a mental disorder. I'll just report the facts about LeVay and let the readers draw their own conclusions.

Your continued attempts to soften the blow of Spitzer's study is very telling. Your continued attempts to denigrate Spitzer's study is very telling as Spitzer himself has said that dismissing his survey would be to dismiss an awful lot of psychological and psychiatric research. Spitzer's own words are a harsh judgment on your very telling bias.

Your posts are identical to those of a homosexual activist and there's no place at FR for homosexual activism.

You crack me up. You're equating my reasoned debate with homosexual activism and suggest I should be booted from FR. What's the matter, can't withstand the criticism so you silence the critic? Seems awfully reminiscent of the fascist left, don't you think?

Spitzer himself has said that dismissing his survey would be to dismiss an awful lot of psychological and psychiatric research.

Is that really that profound? Think about it. You think anyone who dismisses your opinion is missing out on a lot of wisdom. So did Ross Perot and Richard Nixon. A lot of people here think they are oracles of wisdom, without whose advice the nation would be less than perfect.

Why should we think Spitzer wouldn't also fall into that category. Yet, it's undeniable that his research methodology was substandard, and it can be said with certainly that his subjects were not objective, and his results are therefore flawed.

I know it must be difficult for you to accept since his conclusion affirms your beliefs, but that doesn't change the facts.
