Scientific Research Refutes LGBT ‘Born That Way’ Claim

(Worthy News) – A new report by two Johns Hopkins University scientists reveals that scientific evidence does not support the claim that homosexuals are “born that way.”

The researchers recognized the heated nature of the discussion about whether homosexuality is a choice, but still wanted to report the science. And the evidence cited in their report indicates that environmental factors may be involved in the formation of sexual identity.

Written by Dr. Lawrence S. Mayer and Dr. Paul R. McHugh, and published in The New Atlantis, the report evaluates data from over 200 peer-reviewed studies.  [ Source ]
