My guess is that 60% of gays are born that way. The rest get sucked into it.

Sex, gay, black and the KKK all in one story. This will keep Paris Hilton off the front pages.

Impressive.

Suppose there is a gay gene, and that it can be detected prenatally. Suppose a woman is bearing a gay fetus. If she aborts for this reason, she is engaged in discrimination based on sexual orientation, but if she is prohibited from aborting on this basis, it infringes on her right to choose.

Discuss.

Coffee-spitter of the morning so far! As for the gay "gene", it believe that it must be hoped that this does not exist. For if it does, it can be fixed.

These people aren’t just doing this because they are secular humanists. I’ve met secular humanists who know that something isn’t natural when the parts fit together as they do in male and female.

These people are just perverts, pure, plain, and simple.

If there really is a “gay gene” why not develop a cure?

The “gay gene” would be the nail in the coffin for abortion on demand.

A woman would have to get a court order and prove that she wasn’t aborting because of sexual orientation.

Only hetero babies would be allowed to be terminated.

Most appear to be victims of homosexual child molestation.

But now the Montgomery County Board of Education has done what science and medicine could not do by declaring in its newly approved curriculum that homosexuality is “innate” or inborn.

The lies continue. Homosexuality is a behavior, it is not a race, sex or religion. It is an addictive behavior. It is a learned behavior.

Let's try this with paragraphs:

Montgomery County, Md. School Board finds "gay gene" -- Violates State Board of Education's Order

 

Contact: Regina Griggs, Director, Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays & Gays (PFOX), 703-360-2225, PFOX@pfox.org

 

ROCKVILLE, Maryland, June 13 /Christian Newswire/ -- PFOX released this statement in response to the Montgomery County School Board's approval of a new sex education curriculum for public schools:

 

"According to the American Psychiatric Association, there are no replicated scientific studies supporting any specific biological cause for homosexuality. But now the Montgomery County Board of Education has done what science and medicine could not do by declaring in its newly approved curriculum that homosexuality is "innate" or inborn. The board could not produce any factual evidence for what it will now teach students -- only political "pledges" and payoffs for last year's school board elections as claimed by gay rights activists.

 

The board has demonstrated its bias and arrogance in ignoring the March 7, 2007 Order of Maryland State Superintendent Nancy Grasmick that states that the Maryland Board of Education will render a decision in July on the legal appeal of the curriculum. PFOX, Citizens for a Responsible Curriculum, and Family Leader Network had filed an appeal of the proposed curriculum, citing factual inaccuracies and violations of state and federal law. The local board's action in adopting a final curriculum without waiting for the state board's decision as to the legality of that curriculum tramples on the rights of parents and violates the intent of the Superintendent's Order.

 

In her Order, Grasmick cites the curriculum's attempt to address harassment problems relating to sexual orientation and gender identity. PFOX has documented how the curriculum fails to provide instruction on tolerance of ex-gays -- a group that is the object of harassment encouraged by Montgomery County public school staff and students, a fact which the Montgomery County Board of Education does not deny.

 

When PFOX distributed flyers to the high schools urging tolerance of the ex-gay community, the faculty at multiple schools cooperated with Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) student clubs to oppose our message of tolerance.

 

A typical example was Winston Churchill High School where GSA students were allowed to place trash cans in the school hallways and carry trash bags labeled "PFOX" to urge all students to trash their ex-gay flyers. The principal, Dr. Joan Benz, stood by the trash cans to ensure that the protest against ex-gays would not be disturbed.

 

At Wootten High School, a gay teacher and co-sponsor of the school's GSA club warned PFOX to stay out of the public schools, compared sexual preference to African-Americans' skin color, and also compared PFOX to the Ku Klux Klan.

 

This discriminatory treatment is not corrected by the curriculum on teaching tolerance for sexual orientation because former homosexuals are not included in the curriculum. Why did the Board approve a curriculum that is supposed to teach respect for diverse sexual orientations when it excludes former homosexuals -- the only sexual orientation that is subject to intolerance by both students and teachers?

 

We wait for the Maryland State Board of Education to correct the failings of the local board and protect the civil rights of all groups, and not just gays, bisexuals and cross-dressers."

Whether you are born that way or “sucked” into it...homosexuality is a behavior. All behaviors can be controlled and /or over come.
