Why would a young adult that hasn't been exposed to the bad behavior, that hasn't been abused, that's had the best environment, that hasn't had any of the behavioral reasons to be gay, be gay anyway?

Maybe the assumption of no abuse is wrong. I read of a study done by FBI profilers on sex offenders. When questioned, only a small percent admitted any sexual/physical abuse as a child. However, when they were given a more intensive questionnaire, 75% were identified as having been molested/abused as children.

That's a good point. Some will not want to admit abuse or molestation. What we know is that most are victims of abuse or molestation.

What's sad is there are folks who apparently wouldn't offer a homosexual the help he requested. Would they help a drug addict? Why not a homosexual? Some would rather say: "No, you have the freedom to continue living the homosexual life and there's nothing wrong with it, so keep living as you are."
