Here is a very controversial section, which Scripture is quite clear on, but we appear to be confused on. The confusion comes in from many angles. I will add articles that touch as much of the angles (views) as possible.
Here are the articles:

Then Again, Maybe Not: The 'Gay Gene' Theory Takes a Hit
=========================================================================================
But aren't people born gay?
Now even the gay and pro-gay press are acknowledging the problems. In her 1996 book, Gender Shock, writer and lesbian woman Phyllis Burke, quoting Dr. Paul Billings, an internist and human geneticist, calls the born gay idea "a new fish story." A gay publication, "The Guide," writes Hamer's story under the title "Gene Scam?"
As well, Parents, Family and Friends of Lesbians and Gays (PFLAG), one of the larger pro-gay organizations, explains that there is no conclusive evidence that people are born gay in its booklet "Why Ask Why? Addressing the Research on Homosexuality and Biology."
Born gay? Ironically, what the studies actually suggest is that persons who experience same-sex attraction are not prisoners of their biology. That's good news for same-gender-attracted people who would rather pursue other options.
Is it possible to be a Christian and a homosexual?
Of course. With God anything is possible.
But isn’t homosexual a sin?
Who isn’t a sinner. "He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone."
Once converted to a Christian, will a person be cleaned of homosexuality?
That's up to God, whether it is a slow process or a quick process. Or may just be like our other sins... a life time stuggle with a particular sin.
The key thing to remember is that the precious blood of Christ is enough to cover all types of sins before the father! Amen!
My Lord and Savior died for all my sins, all the sins I commited in the past, (ready for this) all the sins I'm doing now, (it gets more exciting) and all the sins I will do in the future! Wow, I basically SUCK! But my Lord and Savior loves me anyways, go figure!
