not a single gay person I know has chosen to be gay, given the ridicule and etc. that they have to deal with.

If you come across someone who doesn't believe that... ask him the following two questions:

1) "At what point in your life did you make the choice to be heterosexual?"

and

2) "If I were King of the World and could provide every conceivable inducement, what could I offer you that would make you sexually attracted to someone of the same gender?"

Of course, it won't change his opinion that homosexuals are just weak-willed individuals with no sense of morality. After all, it would take someone with his great strength of character to resist all the delightful advantages of a gay lifestyle.
