David N. Glesne, DMin Biography
- Title:
- Senior Pastor at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Fridley, MN
- Position:
- Con to the question "Is Sexual Orientation Determined at Birth?"
- Reasoning:
-
“The second myth is that homosexuals are born that way… I have spent a significant amount of time reading and researching the literature and listening to the stories and experiences of homosexual persons. I have read major books and countless magazine and newspaper articles and periodicals. In all this reading and researcher, I have not been able to find one conclusive documented scientific study that substantiates the hypothesis that homosexuals are born that way. On the contrary, there is a consensus among geneticists who state that there is no firm basis for believing that homosexuality is genetically determined.”
