That's just what I assumed from the thread, I could be wrong.

Are you certain in can be solved with science?

Im fairly certain science can point the way yes. Why?

Just curious. I don't think you can be certain, wanted to question your certainty

You can be certain enough.

Wait. 

So what you're saying is I need to kill my brother to stop being gay?

Ok, scientists have found these correlates. So what?

Because the op is questioning his sexuality and trying to understand homosexuality, but it's based on some root aversion.

And people who are already homosexual don't want to understand it further, because they have based their identity around it now. To question their homosexuality, would be to question their identity 

 

Exactly. When I bring statistics about blacks it is because I question my race and want to be black. You are a genius.

I'll take that as a yes. I don't see there is much left to say.

Brains of gay people resemble those of straight people of opposite sex

There is now plenty of research which shows that a person’s sexual orientation, far from being a phase or a lifestyle choice, is a reflection of fixed properties of their brain that develop at an early age.

A new study adds new weight to this evidence by using brain-scanning technology to look at the differences between the brains of gay and straight people. Ivanka Savic and Per Lindstrom at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm scanned the brains of 90 men and women of different sexual orientations. Their images show that in the brains of gay people, certain features including symmetry and connections to the brain’s emotional centre are more closely matched to the brains of straight people from the opposite sex.
