Liberals, feminists, and gays have been arguing for as long as homosexuality has existed that homosexuals are “born that way.” Well, a new scientific study shows that that simply isn’t true.

While the Bible speaks clearly on the issue, that God’s design for human sexuality is a marriage relationship between one man and one woman. And while the Bible never says that anyone is “born gay,” it does say that, in our fallen state, we are born with a sin nature. And with that sin nature, we are inclined toward rebellion against God.

It is caused by sin — a conscious choice to rebel against God.
