Are people within the LGBT community born like that, in the same way people are born with black skin or blue eyes? Is there a scientific consensus on the issue? What does the Word of God say? What does a new report from John Hopkins University reveal about the popular ‘born this way’ theory?
“I feel as a community, the queers have to stop saying, ‘Please help us. We’re born this way, and we can’t change’ as an argument for legal standing. I don’t think we need that argument, and that argument is going to [hurt us], because now we know that there’s enough data out there, that the other side is aware of as much as we are aware of it.”
-Dr. Lisa Diamond (Lesbian LGBT rights activist and Professor of Psychology and Gender Studies at the University of Utah) New Atlantis Fall 2016 Issue on Sexuality and Gender
