I'll try again (last time, though): The study of the genetic and environmental determinants of sexuality is valid, so far as the scientific approach itself is valid. I.e., this is a valid area of research, and it need not be targeted by you or anyone else as invalid because you unjustly see it as supporting a homosexual agenda (or axe to grind, or whatever). For example, exposure to hormones in utero determine measurable physiological characteristics, so why not characteristics in the brain related to sexuality? There is alot of dumb research out there, but this topic need not be. Is that clear enough? The only ones pushing their agenda here is the religious crowd, like DBeers, who I've seen get smashed in other posts by more intelligent characters - so he comes here and takes it out on homosexuals. Monkey get hit, monkey hit someone else, you see. I have no agenda whatsoever regarding homosexuality, except 1) no gay marriage (although I support civil union), 2) as long as the individual science is good, an interesting area of research, and 3)homosexuals are human beings and should be treated as such. That last point is, after all, consistent with a true Christian philosophy. I can't possibly be any clearer than that.
