You are incorrectly assuming a simple Mendelian on/off gene structure, which is tested by twin studies.Linky?The genetic theory was disproved, the hard wire fallback is not a theory because it is not based in science.
Wait, I've got one:
Homosexuality Linked to Genetics in Mice - TIME NewsFeed
If you insist.
Male Homosexuality: Absence of Linkage to Microsatellite Markers at Xq28 -- Rice et al. 284 (5414): 665 -- Science
Use this one for the links to the studies at the end. If homosexuality was genetic then identical twins would always be both homosexual, or both straight. That alone disproves that it is genetic.

Even Wikipedia knows it is not genetic.

1) She has never expressed that point of view.
yes she did.
Student sues ASU over anti-homosexual beliefs | NBC Augusta 26 | news, weather, sports, community, entertainment, shopping for Augusta, Georgia | Local News
From the Link said:Keeton says she believes homosexuality is a choice rather than a "state of being."
"I'm not willing to and I know I can't change my biblical views," Keeton said.
The affidavit also says a fellow student said Keeton "relayed her interest in conversion therapy" for the gay, lesbian and transgender communities and tried to convince classmates to agree with her religious beliefs.
you might have me here. I don't feel like googling about this anymore.
School Lawsuit Claims Religious Discrimination
From the Link said:An ASU spokesperson says that grad students are held to the same code of ethics as professional counselors. The code condemns discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity.
5) ACA ethics require that counselors do not attempt to cure homosexuals, where has she stated that she is trying to do this?
same link and quote as #1
How can any straight person identify with the gay community? And where has she shown the inability to do so, other than in stating that she believes that it is a choice, and not a state of being, something which some gay activists believe also? Would they also be prohibited from getting a degree, even though they are gay? Somehow I doubt that, and I bet you do also. Which would force you to acknowledge this is about her beliefs as a Christian, and not just her beliefs.
she also wants to convert them back to being straight and other foolishness which could permanently, mentally harm the children she is dealing with. also, its not christian only its only about people who share the same views on homosexuals as she does.
Epic fail at reading comprehension.In other words, there is no way of knowing why they're gay, but we know it's not genetic.
Epic fail at using Internet Explorer. I linked the peer-reviewed article in the OP of that page.I just posted a thread, actually:

If you want to dispute the peer-reviewed article, do so there.
Pukeama posts are peer-reviewed articles?????

Sexuality is likely much like skin color, with many, many genes resulting in many phenotypes (which do not nicely fit into our societies "black" and "white" definitions).
OK, I will admit that someone is claiming she might be interested in conversion therapy. However that is, at best, hearsay evidence, and I would need to know more about the student who is saying that before accepting, or rejecting, the claim.
We all know schools never discriminate or do anything STUPID, after all.
So it comes down to this...blu says if they school did it, no matter what it is, IT'S OKAY!

I seriously doubt the school is dumb enough to stop the girl from graduating without this accusation or some other one just as bad (in relation to the ethics guidelines) being true
The feeling is mutual, you fascist buttwipe.
So did you ever prove that it's a requirement that counselors believe homosexuality isn't a choice?
Nope, I didn't think you did.

I think they are dumb enough to try.

it was in the afadavit, thats a pretty odd thing and place to lie

Which part was in the affidavit?
Besides, someone is lying, either the student who is claiming that she has told her professors people she has no problems counseling gays, or the school that is saying they have a reason other than her beliefs to put her into remediation. My guess is both sides are lying.
People always lie blu, once you get that part down it will be a lot easier for you to question everything.
if certain beliefs/actions are part of the groups ethics though why shouldn't she have to follow them to be accredited by the group even if they conflict with her religious belief?
