What do you think would happen?
On one hand, let's say you're about to be a new parent and the doctor comes to you and says your son/daughter has the gay gene and will in all likelyhood be gay... but they can remove it. I would think most parents would want it removed, no? I'm sure a lot of people would also welcome the technology that would give them such a choice.
Thoughts?
I would think gays would see this as science viewing gayness as a disease, and try to stop it from being available. Gay scientists might then try to isolate the "christian" gene. Payback is a bitch. :D

I have no idea how it will ever be possible to actually remove a gene from a life
that has formed. The gene would be in every single cell in the life wouldn't it?
Sounds like the first attempt at removal will produce nothing but a deformed mass
of useless life. We will then debate whether or not we should kill that "thing".
