Cognitive dissonance takes us to some pretty weird places.
The "born gay" rationalization is one of those places.
There's no reason to think it impossible that some portion of gay people have a genetic variation that indeed causes them to be born with that sexual inclination - just like you were born with yours. Homosexuality also exists in other animal species as well. Are they also deviant?

Inclination?
Alcoholism seems to have a genetic component, but being genetically predisposed to alcoholism doesn't make a non-drinker an alcoholic. Ultimately behavior defines the individual and behavior is always controllable on some level.
AA's first step is another fine example of this phenomenon.

There is no reason to debate the genetic basis for homosexuality, as of today there is no gay gene.
My question is are they correct to invade a private office and protest like childish 4 year olds?
Let's be honest -- merely existing is what does not endear people like you (I won't say "anyone who is conservative" because not all conservatives share your irrational obsessions) to any gay cause.
So Luckygem is wrong because you personally dislike him?
A bunch of homosexual losers show up for their fifteen minutes, toss some glitter around because they can't accept others have differing view points and Luckygem has an irrational obsession?
I take them more seriously than a group of kooks who thinks you can change somebody's sexuality by praying away the gay demons.
