	<description><![CDATA[Nature vs. nurture: According to a new Gallup poll, more Americans than ever -- 47 percent -- believe that homosexuality is a genetic trait, and not the result of environmental factors (33 percent). The 14-point difference is the largest spread the Gallup poll has ever received for this question, which first was asked in 1978 (only 13 percent believed it was genetic in 1978). The poll also found that 65 percent of Americans believe that gay marriage should be legalized, and 75 percent have had a friend, family member or co-worker come out to them. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Satisfied customers: The gay hookup app Grindr has only been around since 2009, but in that short amount of time it has already influenced how social networking apps and websites create location-based programming. But for now, Grindr may have the market cornered: "When users sign up, they know exactly what to expect: flirting and hooking up. Meanwhile, a Poke on Facebook may or may not have any romantic innuendos, depending on who sends it. Grindr places a greater emphasis on proximity, not location."

	<description><![CDATA[Your personality test is back...you're just awful: Five years after being "forced" to offer membership to gay couples, eHarmony founder Neil Clark Warren is now admitting that the gay marriage issue tanked his company. The 78-year-old, who has been linked to Focus on the Family, had this to say about the future of the homosexual dating business: "I have said that eHarmony really ought to put up $10 million and ask other companies to put up money and do a really first class job of figuring out homosexuality. At the very best, it's been a painful way for a lot of people to have to live." For more, click the link below. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Science 1, Attenborough 0: BBC Nature documentary director Sir David Attenborough has ruffled the feathers of academic Dr Brett Mills, who, after examining two decades of the esteemed director's films, found that family value references were assigned to a myriad of species, despite obvious film to the contrary.  In one case, Attenborough insults a bird with multiple partners as "neglectful of their parental duties." Mills: "These programmes make a valuable contribution to environmental awareness and how people think about the world around them. They are highly regarded and educational but they should also be offering alternative interpretations of animal behaviour." For more, click the link below. ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Point miss of the week: When Bryan Fischer, of the SPLC-deemed hate group American Family Association, heard the recent claim that epi-genetics may play a role in homosexual offspring, he was quick to offer his analysis, although the point may have been lost: "If 90 percent of babies in the womb who are diagnosed with Downs syndrome never draw their first breath, what are the chances that parents disposed to abortion will not exercise the same choice with regard to the gay gene?"

	<description><![CDATA[Proof that it's genetic...sorta: A new research study in the latest issue of Quarterly Review of Biology suggests that epigenetics, which is the study of the "transmission of sexually antagonistic epi-marks," may be responsible for sexual orientation being passed down in some families, but not in every generation: "While genes hold the instructions, epi-marks direct how those instructions are carried out, when, where and how much a gene is expressed during development."
