A very fascinating talk given on this topic can be viewed at http://www.gayintostraightamerica.com/526.html - it is by Dr Cynthia Chappell, a professor at the University of Texas. She's not a professional in this field (she's focused on microbiology and immunology), however as the mother of a gay son she was interested in the scientific research into sexual orientation, and given her background was able to really get into the scientific literature on the topic, something the average person may not be able to do (or even know where to look).
I summarised the (what I found interesting/main points of the) video on my blog http://tyroneintokyo.blogspot.com/2007/05/biological-explanation-for-human-sexual_20.html .
One of the articles she referenced ("A critical review of recent biological research on human sexual orientation") can be found at http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http://info.med.yale.edu/therarad/summers/mustanski et al review.pdf&ei=OrRWSLGcDYi46gPo5bGPAw&usg=AFQjCNF-unFF-BNeDBHuy-rURuYVES8X9w&sig2=yAf3-IwIiVyElmi9KssIRg

An excellent and well reasoned reply.

I thought these people were supposed to not follow the Old Testament? Why do they think it's fair to drag up the ten commandments and the "abomination" in Leviticus, and then to deny the rest of the rules given in the OT as irrelevant, as the NT supersedes the OT?
