The issue of whether it's a choice is irrelevant to me. Even if homosexuality were a choice, it would be wrong to treat homosexuals differently than under the law.

To me, entering the debate re: choice only implicitly legitimizes the position that it's OK to oppress people who do things some people don't like.
