You are looking for something that hasn't been found yet and dismissing it as fallacy. There was no solid explanation for gravity, but it still worked until the current theory was developed. What we have are studies and scientific theories (this means explanations, not guesses)

Nelson, to finish what I was saying is that it is psychologically damaging to persuade someone otherwise, that it's not ok to be human, and to suppress natural human emotion. That is the problem I have with religion. Their ethos is full of suppression of natural human emotions, no matter how uncommon they are. Homosexuality, in this case, is a natural human emotion, it may be uncommon, it may not be appealing to some, but it doesn't exclude it from being natural.
