For those who think homosexuality is learned, or a sin, the following
information presented on Tuesday's PBS program "Brain and Language"
might be interesting:
   (1) More homosexual males are born of mothers who suffered severe
stress in pregnancy.  Aren't unborn children supposed to be free of sin?
   (2) There is a chemical test, whose nature I didn't get straight,
that reacts one way with female brain tissue and a different way with
male.  The brain tissue of a homosexual male reacts like a female.
I suppose there are ways in which learning to react like a female
to male stimulation could cause this effect, but it seems a bit
unlikely.
