Murder, rape, and theft are not genetic characteristics of an individual. A better comparision would be redheads, Asians, or tall people. All handled by our genetics that we have no control over.
Murder, rape, and theft are actions taken against a person. It is taking something away from someone. Homosexuality is simply what someone is attracted to sexually. It has no effect on you in any way and takes nothing away from your life. It is no different than someone who is attracted to obese women or has a fetish for small feet. Just genetics and the sexual attractions they cause us to have.
Evolution isn't right or wrong. It just creates genetic survivors that are built for particular environments. With the prevelance of homosexuality in humans and other species, there is some benefit it provides that has caused it to survive throughout the history of life.
