Are Some People Born Gay?
Purdom, G. 2018.  Answers 13(5):34-36. CELD ID 26598

Abstract
Recent scientific studies claim that some people are born gay. Could this be? Many Christian parents have asked me this question. They are struggling with a child who has recently "come out" and are trying to grapple with this new reality. These parents have lovingly taught their children the Bible, taken them to church all their young lives, and can't understand how their children could possibly choose this sinful sexual behavior. They think biology may help explain what they are wrestling to explain any other way. So, can it? And if biology can explain it, is homosexual behavior still sinful if God made them that way?
