Here is what I took from it... 1- Currently the Supreme Court bases civil rights decisions on "immutable traits." If you are not a minority because of some genetic or biological thing over which you have no control, you are out of luck. 2- As a result of # 1 activists have attempted to protect the civil rights of homosexuals by arguing that being gay is biological. 3- If there are some problems with the biology argument. 4- The problems with the biology argument can be exploited to prevent homosexuality from being considered immutable and the argument will eventually fail. 5- Gay activists should abandon the biology argument and make a better legal argument for gay civil rights. I.E. get the SC to abandon the "Immutable" idea and put homosexuality on the same level as religion.
