Well, there's the rub for the religious-right. Bush was asked last night (I believe) on whether he thought homosexuality was a choice or not. He claimed he didn't know.
I'm surprised the answer isn't obvious. President Bush, why don't you go ahead and 'choose' to be gay, proving that it's a 'choice' and not an inherent state of being.
I for one always laugh at the 'choice' argument. It's been put to me like this; 'If you date a man you're choosing to date a man. If you date a woman, same thing. It's a choice, no one is forcing you to date one or the other, you're choosing'.
I've always thought this was invalid, as I could never see myself 'choosing' to be gay. Ever. It's not a 'choice' for me, the idea of making love to a man isn't appealing. I don't feel like I have a choice. I'm straight, that's the way I was born.
