Their persecution became socially acceptable, and still is in many parts of the world. Generally, those who have been informed of science confirming that gays are born gay, accepted them and apologized. If their not doing it on purpose, people who are different can be accepted as equal, and that is moral.
The issue of whether being gay is biological or a choice has only ever existed because Christians feel that they are entitled to discriminate if gay people do it by choice. Even if people choose to be gay, there's no rational justification for discriminating against gay people or denying them the rights you enjoy. Doing so is immoral.
