::::::::::"Dr. Collins noted that environment, particularly childhood experiences as well as the role of free will choices affect all of us in profound ways. As researchers discover increasing levels of molecular detail about inherited factors that underlie our personalities, it's critical that such data be used to illuminate, not provide support to idealogues."

:::::::::Dr Collins himself says that environment and upbringing are more important than genetics, and even though inheriting "gay genes" does not necessarily trigger homosexuality, it still has some minor influence. Amish and orthodox Jews who have an anti-homosexual upbringing would naturally exercise greater [[Essay:Quantifying_Mental_Strength|mental strength]] than latent homosexuals who have a lax upbringing. You cannot disprove the science of genetics by pointing at extremely well disciplined societies that would, according to Dr. Collins, be able to repress homosexual traits with ease. You are actively damaging the Conservapedia by repressing the fact of homosexual latency and the more important fact that it is "not to be confused as inevitability" (quoted from Collins). This information is more important than your minor quibble with NARTH, and it is essential to liberal-proofing this encyclopedia, and destroying the core dogma of the [[Homosexual Agenda]]; "we were born this way and we can't help it". Please, unlock this page and reinstate the removed section. If necessary, I will rewrite it to emphasize the flimsiness of the genetic determination argument.

:::::Your largely mere appeal to authority vis a vis Dr. Collins (whose judgment is certainly questionable given his support of the evolutionary position) is awfully thin porridge and I doubt even Oliver Twist would ask for more. Not going to make dubious factual claims that in an article based on mere speculation. [[User:Conservative|conservative]] 23:57, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
