Religious fundamentalists around the world gnashed their teeth and rent their garments, following the announcement that gayness develops in the womb.
Sweden’s Karolinska Institute published a comparison of the brains of 90 adults, in which they discovered that gay men and straight women had equally-sized hemispheres, while straight men and lesbians had larger right lobes. Differences were also found in the nerve connections of the amygdala, the most primitive part of the brain. The clinching argument was the discovery that brains were lettered like a stick of rock, with the tiny words ‘Male’ or ‘Female’ running through them, followed by ‘May be used in body types M and F’.
“As far as I’m concerned, there is no argument any more – if you are gay, you are born gay,” said Dr Qazi Rahman, a lecturer in cognitive biology from Queen Mary College, London.
However, fundamentalists were horrified at the implication that homosexuality is determined by God, rather than simply a perverted desire to commit wicked, sinful acts for the glory of Satan.
“Why, this makes me question everything I believe in,” said one God-fearing bigot. “If God Almighty is infallible, how could He make these loathsome abominations? Perhaps it’s like those fossil-stones He put into the good earth to test our faith in the Book of Genesis. That must be it. Thank you, Lord, for putting me to the test! Hallelujah!”
Some leading fundamental theologians have suggested that the solution would be to simply put gay brains into bodies of the opposite sex.
Bisexuals, however, complained of feeling more confused than ever, as the new evidence clearly implies that they are the unnatural ones. Unfortunately the Christians overheard them, and immediately set about building a large bonfire.
