New Evidence From Royal College Suggests 'People Are Not Born Gay'; Findings Overrule What They Previously Believed

A new report by the Royal College of Psychiatrists is saying they have evidence to conclude that people are not born gay, which would go against what they formerly believed.

According to Charisma News, Core Issues Trust (CIT) is a Christian charity that tries to work with homosexuals to change "unwanted" same-sex feelings. They are currently against a ban of same-sex therapy and feel their work with homosexuals is working. Their main gripe is despite Royal College's finding they still are against conversion treatment.

"They now say that the causes of homosexuality are a combination of 'biological and postnatal environment factors.' So, if a child does not encounter such postnatal life experiences, he or she will grow up heterosexual," said the director of CIT, Mike Davidson to Charisma.

He continued, "The Royal College has also modified its view on whether sexual orientation can change, saying, 'It is not the case that sexual orientation is immutable or might not vary to some extent in a person's life,'" he says. "So how can that be consistent with a ban on people voluntarily seeking professional counseling to change unwanted same-sex feelings?"

Conversion therapy is a very controversial treatment of therapy as most feel morally it digs to deep psychologically and emotionally. The main goal is to revert a homosexual into a heterosexual. "Psychiatric treatment, such as reparative or conversion therapy which is based upon the assumption that homosexuality per se is a mental disorder or based upon the a prior assumption that the patient should change his/her sexual homosexual orientation," is how the American Psychiatric Association views it.

There are stories of many Christians who were stuck in a homosexual lifestyle and were able to revert their sexuality. So it is possible for the therapy to work, but their is still a tough battle ahead for those struggling with it.
