This is going to make the LGBT crowd very unhappy (even though they knew this was the case from the start)…
From Daily Wire:
An unpublished UCLA study challenging the societal “born this way” dogma of homosexuality has already been gaining traction in the public media since its presentation at an annual scientific conference last week.
The twin study conducted at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California, Los Angeles, finds that homosexuality may be triggered by environmental factors after birth. The research uses an algorithm covering epigenetic markers from several genomic sites of 37 sets of identical male twins to predict homosexuality in males, with 70 percent accuracy, as presented at the American Society of Human Genetics 2015 Annual Meeting in Baltimore.
“The finding is highly controversial because it suggests that some men are not born gay, but are turned homosexual by their surroundings,” Sarah Knapton of Telegraph suggested.
Wait a tick…
Does that mean that kids raised by gay parents or who have been unfortunately abused are more prone to becoming gay?
You don’t say?
I feel like conservatives have been saying this for years!
Does this prove beyond all reasonable doubt that gay people choose to be gay?
Yeah, it really does. And more likely than not, there will never be evidence of a gay gene (unless studies are highly falsified like they are with climate change analysis).
As we’ve known since the beginning of time, a baby boy or girl does not develop in the womb with a gene that tells them to be attracted to the opposite sex.
Why liberals still push the lie that people are “born this way” makes little sense, but because so many Americans are uninformed on the issues, they go along with whatever Hollywood celebrities and the mainstream media tell them to.
Sad.
Don’t even get me started on “transgender” BS.
Everything in life is a choice, people.
Another validation of God’s position. People choose homosexuality, it is unnatural, and it is bad for their physical and mental health.
It’s called a lifestyle choice.
Reality does not matter. “Take a lie, make it big enough, repeat it often enough, and people will believe it”- Josef Goebbels, Nazi Propaganda Minister.
And our choices have physical and mental effects. Eat more calories than your body consumes and you’ll gain weight.
But some don’t bow the knee to Baal.
By the grace of God, some resist the lie.
Gays should be happy because if we ever were to find a ‘gay’ gene, it would mean that it a genetic defect. Like Downs. And we all know what liberals do to those with genetic defects. They want them killed/aborted to ease the ‘strain’ on society.
Very few per Jesus own words.
To be magnanimous, could say they are compelled to choose it because of their mental aberration.
Even if there were a gene it wouldn’t make it normal. It would then be a birth defect.
And also being magnanimous, some are raped, seduced, and warped.
We know two sets of identical twins - did I say identical, yes. One twin is gay in each pair, the other is NOT!! One twin only "realized he was gay when he moved to Hollywierd."
If there were such a thing as a "gay gene" both sets of identical twins would carry it and both be "gay!"
AMEN to that!
Not until they finish using it to take over our culture.
But there are those who do not bow to the lie.
I may get flamed, but............
Nobody really knows what causes homosexuality.
Some “lesbians” are very mannish in their appearance. It goes beyond the buzz cut hair cuts and flannel shirts worn by some. The shape and bone structure of their faces resembles the shape and bone structure of men’s faces.
Has anyone else ever noticed this? Anyone else ever seen a “lesbian” from a distance, assumed it was a man, then you get closer and you see that it’s really a mannish looking female???
What I’m getting at, is that could there be some physiological component to homosexuality???
Flame away..............
Indeed. It’s the historical way for libs. Use idiots and then put bullets in them. We have Soviet Russia, China, Cambodia, Cuba and most of South America to be our guide on that. In fact, every liberal country has done it. Every time.
FYI guys.
There doesn’t need to be a gene for someone to have a preference.
My brother and I both grew up in a very conservative, Southern Baptist household. We had the same experiences and are just a year apart.
We’re both adopted, though, and both very different than our parents. My brother grew up to be gay. I grew up to not like cheerleader types but instead prefer artistic or musician type women. We all have our preferences. His towards liking men are as innate as mine are for liking women. We’ve both known from a young age that was the case.
There is a ton of homosexual hatred and delusion about what it is to be homosexual on this site. Yes there are the outspoken idiots who make the news. There is also Westboro Baptist, but they aren’t typical of Christians.
You’d never know my brother was gay if he didn’t tell you. You’d never know what kinds of things I like to do in the bedroom unless I told you. He’s single and has been for more than fifteen years because he is busy being a professor of music theory and doesn’t really have time to find someone.
I think you’re just comparing all women to ideal, pin-up women. For every horse-face guy, there’s a horse-face girl.
