That first line makes it seem like the problem is a fun thing called religion, not homosexuality.
First, religion isn't going away. And secondly, why does religion hate homosexuality to start with? If religion was "made up" by men to maintain order in a society, then why were these men so fixated with eliminating homosexuality, unless homosexuality was an item of contention and division in society(just as it is now). If homosexuality was seen as a good or even a neutral thing, then homosexuality wouldn't be seen by religions as being evil, and the works of satan.

Gays are already in the military and probably in submarines. They just don't declare that they're gay. Same with restrooms.
True true, but most actual military officials usually see integration of homosexuals as being a bad thing. Civilians, such as the secretary of the Army/Navy, the president, and most of congress don't understand anything about why unit cohesion can be negatively effected by these kinds of distractions. And they are led around on an emotional crusade by the whims of more ignorant civilians(the majority of voters) who know nothing about how the military actually works.
I would also say that women in the military is also a bad thing.
"A congresswoman said Thursday that her "jaw dropped" when military doctors told her that four in 10 women at a veterans hospital reported being sexually assaulted while in the military."
You stupid emotional people keep wanting to ignore natural human tendencies and behaviors because you are on some idealistic war for equality. But you are wishing for something that cannot exist in our imperfect world.

These sound less like awful problems and more like minor nuisances that can be solved with social progression.
They are nuisances. But they are not nuisances that just disappear. They will never disappear. Racism is another nuisance. When is it going to die? NEVER.
"What is remarkable about the findings is that only seven percent did not show any racial bias."
Basically, someone will not start liking the taste of onions just because you tell them its good for them. They may be able to tolerate it if they have to, but they still don't like onions.
Here's a really wild theory: suppose babies are actually born without sexuality, and develop it over the course of their maturation? (I know, I know; I'll get raked over the coals for this. But then, Galileo didn't have an easy time when he suggested that the Sun didn't revolve around the Earth!)
Scientific medical studies.A fact son.....Next thing someone will tell me is it is natural......Its a mental defect and people dont make the choice.Are you in denial?
There are a million problems with homosexuality. And the problems of homosexuality have been a common problem among all civiliations since the beginning of history. If you could eliminate homosexuality, it would be a good thing. I don't understand how anyone would argue against it.
I see religious zealotry and intolerance of difference causing the problems, not homosexuality.
It's lucky someone didn't wipe out Alexander the Great otherwise we may not know what democracy is.
Or Plato or Leonardo da Vinci, or Michaelangelo and many other homosexuals who have enriched human culture.
Without diversity, populations stagnate.
I see gay people adding to the richness of human life with a different way of thinking/feeling to straight people.

What "scientific medical studies" are you referring to?
