"the majority of the scientific community believes homosexuality is genetic"?
sorry... i seriously doubt that the majority of the scientific community has an opinion on it. the majority of the scientific community is not studying homosexuality or issues relating to homosexuality. the simple fact is that there are almost no peer reviewed studies published that draw any concret conclusions one way or the other.

I know that there are Republicans that don't have issues with homosexuality. But the Republican party stance on the issue is slanted. Also, people like Guiliani who support gay marriage have already been shunned by the party and stand no chance at winning the party nomination. So although there are people who don't have the same beliefs, the party talking points is still anti-homosexuality.
Most of the scientific studies point to homosexuality being a trait passed on. You'll be hard pressed to find many scientists who are in the genetics field who will say that homosexuality is "a bad choice".
