Hmmm... I don't quite see the religious right behind this, as it involves science. But then again, they don't think that artificially keeping someone alive hooked up to a machine isn't interfering with God... I dunno.

But I agree... there are more REAL diseases to cure, like AIDS, Cancer... hell, even the common cold. I also get upset that half our health scientists can come up with is stuff we already know. WOW! Eating a diet rich in sugars and Fat isn't healthy? WOW! I had absolutely no idea! My doctor [I]never[I] told me that!

I really don't know how to feel about this. one the one hand, they are proving that "gay" is a naturally occuring trait in genetics and evolution, but a bunch of bigoted weirdos (who are mostly closet cases themselves) will no doubt drool over the prospect of recondisioning their unborn child to be "normal."

BTW, if homosexuality does get cured, how the heck are politicians ever going to scare people into voting for them? Are they actually going to resort to talking about the issues? Nah... i'm sure, they'll find another "abnormal" group to pick on.
