Sexual Orientation is a matter of choice.
Are you saying that you could choose to be attracted to persons of the same gender if you wanted to? Try doing it for 24 hours -- don't worry about acting on the attraction, just try to have the attraction.
Sexual Identity is not.
What medical credentials do you have that enables you to make such a statement?

I hope that everyone understands that the choice homosexuals make isn't the same as the choice a carnivore makes when choosing between Burger King and McDonalds. The choice is whether to get help in rectifying a mental illness or to rationalize the results of said illness.
Shalom.

First of all, sexual orientation is a choice, here is an example: I have an ex-friend of mine who was married for eleven years, had four children and a stable life. He began to run with a "different" crowd of people and woke up one morning supposedly "Gay". Now if he were truly gay, then the thought of being with a woman should utterly repulse him, as a straight male the thought of being with another man repulses me. His ability to "go gay" proves that sexual orientation is a choice, if one allows oneself to be swayed or lured into that lifestyle. How if sexual orientation is not a choice, do you explain all of these hollywood types that are gay, then straight, then gay again?? Its a mental deficency, no more no less.
