I suppose they are isolated studies so not the be-all and end-all, but still interesting and consistent with what a lot of gay people will tell you when you tell them their sexuality is a "choice", in my experience.

Edit: Here is a story from a few years ago about a supposed link, I think the study I'm thinking of is more recent though.
I appreciate your humble attitude, and I am of an equal feeling that there is something more to it than a concious choice by people to live a Gay life. I found your link to be fascinating, and was struck by the aptness of the last paragraph to our thread discussion:

"Regardless of whether sexual orientation is determined by nature or nurture or both, the most important thing is that lesbians and gay men are treated equally and are allowed to live their life without discrimination."
Despite my misgivings about homosexuality and Lesbianism, I cannot find it in my heart to hate them. It's just so difficult to accept for someone so schooled in the old ways.
