I happen to be straight, but have a good amount of homosexual friends and have learned about many studies on sexuality in general. Based on what I've experienced and learned, it's definitely genetic trait. In some species, the appearance of homosexual animals will be affected by population. For example, it was found in hamsters that when overpopulation occured(i.e. more hamsters than the amount of available food/space, etc), the number of homosexual animals within that community of hamsters increased. There are species of monkeys in which the females have evolved over time to have sex with eachother as well as with males. This allows them to form better social relationships with eachother and dominate the males. And there are other examples, but I won't write a book right now. My point is that homosexuality is a natural occurance in life, and as with all of the other individual human traits and tendencies, serves a purpose within the human race. There's a reason that we evovled this way and it has nothing to do with sin. (BTW, remember that although the bible was inspired by God, it was written by human beings, who are fallible, and for many years before the first copy, it was recorded orally, not to mention the many revisions it has gone through from different languages and versions...even if you could find the "true" bible, it is very unlikely to be the literal word of God, which is why I don't buy the whole immoral argument of homosexuality...but I digress) So that answers the question of the thread, but I agree with everyone who says, who cares? A person is a person is a person. The end.
