Many married monogamists may (nice alliteration) have a "natural" desire to stray and spread seed, so the challenge is to overcome the temptation and become stronger for it in order to maintain a solid family unit.

I think that's well said. It fits what I believe. I also don't have a problem with evolution for the most part. There are many missing pieces like many things in science but don't see were anyone should believe God wouldn't let things evolve naturally as they need to.

Going back to genetic vs psychological I believe it's a psychological thing and can't be compared to being a different race. I believe that many factors including some that could be genetic can cause these feelings in people and fault no one for their feelings.

As was said previously by kulang:

It's also hard to get past reno's point about evolution and what guides it to believe it would be a genetic part of evolution. One would think evolution would want to guide away from such things.

But to the main point I go in public bathrooms with gay people, I have been at the Y and other places and probably been in the shower areas with gay people, and none have ever jumped me. Of course there will always be people who take inappropriate actions but I don't think with the gay community that it is the norm.

Now I have heard the prison factor presented here but most psychologists/psychiatrists and the studies there of will point that homosexuality in prison is not about sex as much as it is about dominance. Kind of like when one male dog mounts another.
