Rick Warren Over Whether People Are Born Gay or ‘Become Gay'

Evangelical mega-pastor Rick Warren appeared on CNN's “Piers Morgan Tonight” on Tuesday, where a familiar issue was discussed — homosexuality. The television host wasted no time in asking the Christian preacher whether he believes people are born gay or whether they “become gay.”

“You know what, I think the jury's still out on that. It wouldn't — it wouldn't bother me if there was, quote, ‘a gay gene' found, because here's what we know about life,” Warren responded. “I have all kinds of natural feelings in my life and it doesn't necessarily mean that I should act on every feeling. Sometimes I get angry and I feel like punching a guy in the nose. It doesn't mean I act on it.”
