The extent to which homosexuality is innate is not a matter of logic. It is a matter of science. If one assumes that there is a continuum in the degree of the preference, finding some ex gays proves nothing.

It is a matter of science. At least it is in your dreams.

All human behavior is chosen behavior. No desire, or feeling, or inclination causes anyone to do anything. One can recognize a desire and choose not fulfill it. Some people are tempted to steal, but reject the inclination. Some people are tempted to misuse or abuse their bodies, but reject those impulses.

Some people give in to desires they objectively know are wrong or self-destructive. Surrender to a desire is not a life style, it is a lack of character. To normalize weakness is to propagate evil. There is nothing "scientific" in it.

"Gay Rights" Strategies Involve Conscious Deception And Wholesale Manipulation of Public Opinion

 What Is "A Homosexual" Kinsey reported that those who engaged in homosexuality were exceptionally sexually flexible, intensely sexualized, and highly venturesome. Kinsey's published data reveal that homosexuals are much more willing to "try it" with an animal, a child, a man, many women, or for that matter "something completely different."

Science? Then let us be scientific … Tell us about the scientific test for “gayness” … the test , that if one conducts on Gay_A, will yield the same results no matter / when / where / or / who / conducts the test.
By the way … your test should also prove that GAY_B is also definitively “gay”, and that non-GAY_C is definitively “not-gay”.

If one assumes that there is a continuum in the degree of the preference, finding some ex gays proves nothing.

Are you saying now that gays are defined by “preference” …. Doesn’t ”preference” imply “choice?” You are defeating your own argument.
