It may be genetic but there is not a 'gay gene;' apparently factors interact and the mechanism has not been figured out yet.

Religion is a man-made structure, an attempt by human beings to define, organize, and thus have the illusion of control over natural forces. Humans seem to have an innate need for ritual, but the function of organized religion has been enslaved by politics in most cultures.
ALL patriarchal religions are focused on keeping male control of the social structure. This includes degradation and marginalization of women and LGBT because it puts an exaggerated priority on the ability to impregnate. This is not "divine will," this is merely male ambition.

Being homophobic is not.
