The arrangement of a mother's genes could affect the sexual orientation of her son, according to a new study.
The finding, detailed in the February issue of the journal Human Genetics, adds fuel to the decade-long debate about whether so-called "gay genes" might exist.
The researchers examined a phenomenon called "X chromosome inactivation" in 97 mothers of gay sons and 103 mothers whose sons were not gay.

Whoever said the Bible was scientific? Present the Genesis creation myth to any reputable geologist or biologist and see how much they laugh at you.

the old testament actually is not against homosexuality per se, but it is against the ACT of male homosexual sexual contact.
>>"Present the Genesis creation myth to any reputable geologist or biologist and see how much they laugh at you."<<
the funny part is how that if you add a relatively concervative amount of inteperetation, ... suddenly the story describes the formation of the universe as well as science has been able to discern!

God condemns "homosexuality" because it is not how He purposed us to be. Homosexuality even if genetic, although it is certainly not "proven" to be, is still a corruption of nature, and in any research to date is seen as an aberration or mutation...an anomally, because even biologically, it can offer nothing to the furtherance of the species and actually would cause it's extinction if it were a common genetic trait.
It is part of the corruption of this creation that began with the fall of man in Eden.

Because sodomy is unsanitary. You can catch deceases such as aids 100 times more with gay sex than with straight sex. The Bible had this to protect the general population, makes sense really.

I don't think our research was needed by God when he created us and the earth. In fact, our pea-sized brains can't even comprehend God.
So ask Him, he's the boss. Imagine standing in front of God and citing the above directly to him. Shall we challenge God? I would shivver in terror.

You can science all you want. It's plainly wrong. God hates it. It wasn't intended to be. There is nothing good about. You can't reproduce as God intended us to. You get disease. And it even looks sickening to see two men holding hands and especially kissing.
