Science!

Not that the wingnuts will pay any attention to this:

In both cases the findings add weight to the idea that homosexuality has a physical basis and is not learned behavior.

"It shows sexual orientation may very well have a different basis between men and women ... this is not just a mirror image situation," said Sandra Witelson, an expert on brain anatomy and sexual orientation at the Michael G. DeGroote School of Medicine at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario.

"The important thing is to be open to the likely situation that there are biological factors that contribute to sexual orientation," added Witelson, who was not part of the research team.

Because, of course, science and facts are associated with that whole, liberal, reality, thingamabob.

I'd be stunned if it's not at least partially biological, and this makes sense - but at the same time this is a pretty small sample from which to make broad generalizations.

And the sample for "God says homosexuals are bad" is how large?
