they all come running back
EDIT:

but i think people should do what they want with their lives..
it's not for us to judge, especally in this section.

Seconded. =O
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter,
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

RE: Homosexuality
I don't think you're born gay, nor is it a result of how you are raised. It's a matter of what your hormones are like, if you're attracted to the same sex, you are, if you arn't you arnt. If you're attracted to both, you're attracted to both.
I won't even get into if we "choose" to be gay. That's like asking do African American's "choose" to be black.

RE: Homosexuality
I agree with wdz, you can't be born gay, it just doesn't make any sense. When you're born you have that innocence and you're unaware of anything sexual, including your preferences toward men or women. My sister is gay, and she slowly turned gay after liking men less and less.
I don't think you're gay straight away, you become aware that you're gay once you experiment with people etc. It's all dependant on who you grew up with, I'm sure that if you grew up in an entirely gay community (somehow?) that you'd be inclined to be gay, or be completely not gay, just not homophobic at all.
If you're surrounded by gay people, would you really want to conform or find out what's going on in the outside world? Not sure, but you know.
I don't want to act like an expert on this though, being gay is a life choice it's not something you're born with, the only thing you're born with are different schemas, such as the "sucking reflex" which is for babies who need feeding etc.

I disagree, I read an article that said the more older brothers a boy has, the more likely he is to be gay. They suggested that this was because the mother's woman became more adpet at fighting off the testosterone for male development, so if the child became a boy he would exhibit more feminine tendencies than might be expected.

Sure, couple months ago I read it, but managed to dig some stuff up. The original I read was on Digg but it looks like the yahoo news page has gone, but here's an article about the same study from the Telegraph:

i wouldnt take stuff like that litteral, i'm pretty sure scienetist can proove anything theese days with research over a large scale such as people who like nuts [food ] are more likely to be gay etc.
