For years there has been a great divide between those in our society who believe sexuality is determined at birth and those who insist homosexuality is a conscious election made by the individual. But findings from a study conducted by doctors at Oxford University in the United Kingdom have finally put this argument to rest.
The determinants of homosexuality it seems are neither based on genetics nor free will. Homosexuality can actually be classified as an “Impulse Control Disorder” or in other words, a mild mental illness. Conservative organizations such as Family First, the Chalcedon Foundation and Americans for Truth about Homosexuality initially praised the medical team’s findings as they seemed to add credence to the notion that homosexuality can be reversed.
