It's already settled.

 

Jacquielynn Floyd says that the gay issue will be settled when "the response to someone's disclosure they they're gay isn't an avalanche of media attention, but a response along the line of, 'Okeydoke' or 'Fine' or 'Are you single? I think you'd like my cousin.'"

 

She says it will be settled when "it's fixed in our resistant collective noodles that some of us are gay, just like some of us are left-handed and some of us have red hair."

 

She says that as long as there's debate, it won't be settled.

 

Sorry to disagree (not really, I'm just trying to be polite), Jacquielynn, but the issue was settled a long time ago when God said, "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature." And again when he said, "And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet."

Incidentally, Jacquielynn, left-handedness and red hair are not abominations in the sight of God. You'll have to come up with a better analogy than that. So until you can get that into your resistant noodle, maybe you'd be better off being a little less politically correct.
