I don't know if it's possible for anybody to change who they feel attracted to. . . but then that's not the point. It's possible for anybody to choose who they actually have sex with, because that doesn't really depend on attraction. I'm a heterosexual, and it would be perfectly possible for me to have sex with another man if I chose to do that. In the same way, it's possible for homosexuals to choose to have sex with members of the opposite gender, even if they aren't attracted to them. It might not be an especially interesting experience for them, but they can't say it's impossible. In time they might even learn to love that person, because love doesn't really depend on sexual attraction anyway. So yes, it does boil down to a choice which is perfectly within your power to make. The only thing that matters is what you do, not who you are. Nobody ever asked more than that.

Yes, it is behavioral.
Paul states that many of the new believers had been delivered from homosexuality in
1 Corinthians 6:9-11,
Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites... will inherit the kingdom of God. And SUCH WERE SOME OF YOU. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.
If it were a genetic thing, then the Bible would not have shown that some were delivered. The Bible is the Word of God. It states that you can be born again, transformed by the renewing of your mind, washed and cleansed of all such behaviors.

I just read a newspaper articles that says that sexual orientation is determined in the womb. Younger brothers tend to be more homosexual than older brothers because as the womb produces more kids it somehow causes them to be more feminine.

Whether they care to admit it or not, the majority of human beings is NOT 100% hetero- or homosexual. Most people are culturally and biologically driven toward one or the other, too afraid of the ambiguities of claiming the birthright of bisexuality. So, yes, it is possible to change one's orientation at will.

My understanding (though it may be wrong...) is that every person can choose at some point what his/her sexual orientation is. It all depends on the sort of stimuli that affect him/her at the precise point of making that decision. I am not saying that it is OK, but I guess it is possible.

If you change from Hetro to Homosexual you have just been hiding it really well. I really believe that you are born to be either or.
Now experimenting and finding that for sure that is not what you are into I guess poses another question

it is all based upon choice people have the choice to be homosexual or heterosexual unlike most liberals would have you believe, sexual preference tends to be violated by temptation through satan himself, most homosexuals will defend their sexual preference by saying they have no choice this is diverting all blame from them for their behavior trying to put it on nature or in some situations even blaming god for the way they are

Yes, ever heard of Candace Gingrich (Newt's Half Sister), she told her Mom well you don't have to pay for a Wedding.
The Devestated Mom said "I wanna pay for a Wedding."
In due time she was like im gonna have to tell my Son his Half-Sister is Gay before he finds out from the Press.
