Sloppy misconstrual
Other scientists involved in the study, who are themselves gay, publicly opposed its publication, voicing concern that the findings would be “misconstrued” ….
“Other scientists” were correct, and if I’m not mistaken, Mr. Sullins is misconstruing the findings in substantially the manner they anticipated, to-wit: since homosexual orientation does not come from a “controlling genetic disposition,” it’s just the “development and expression of personal autonomy.”
I suspect that “other scientists” would find that an “agenda of hate” (omitted from the initial block quote), though I find it merely sloppy confirmation bias. I’m disappointed in the Witherspoon Institute.
