I think people sometimes misunderstand the statement of choice. To some people, the choice means your personal attractions and romantic capacity. To other people it means your literal actions. People as a general rule cannot choose who they are attracted to (not in overt ways, typically, but they can open their mind to new experiences and find certain types of people attractive they might not have found attractive before), however they can choose to act in homosexual partnerships and have homosexual intercourse.

I very much believe that people are born sexually agnostic (more or less) and that they eventually fall into specific sexual roles. Being gay is OK with me, not that any gay person needed my validation.

With that said, I also believe that "born gay" is just cover-fire / rationalizing a persons sexual orientation and that there is only a preoccupation with such a notion because, in the society that exist today, there is a stigma.

These are my musings based on what I believe what level of behavior DNA is capable of pre-programming. I very well could be wrong.

It isn't a choice but nor is it healthy. It is a misdirection of the breeding impulse. That's a sort of birth defect which, if widespread enough, would cause serious problems for any species. I feel like denying this only hurts the credibility of people pushing for gay rights.

You could say the same thing about masturbation.

This has nothing to do with atheism.
