Politics: the absurdity of the homosexual choice argument

If this exchange between Hardball's Chris Matthews and Evangelical Prick Jerry Falwell doesn't demonstrate the absurdity of 'choosing' to be hetero or homosexual, I'm not sure what does. Don't bother reading without your tongue place firmly in cheek:

Falwell: I did.

Matthews: You thought about it and you came up with that solution, that lifestyle?

Falwell: Well, put it this way, I was taught as a child that that's the right way to be.

Matthews: But did you feel an attraction toward women?

Falwell: Oh, of course.

Matthews: But when people are born and they find themselves having an attraction to somebody from the same sex, do you think that's a choice?

Falwell: I think you can experiment with any perversity and develop an appetite for it, just like you can food. […] I don't think anybody is born a bank robber […]
