...answer the first argument one must look no further than a recent and comprehensive report by the Rand Corporation (a think-tank with ties to the Department of Defense) on the effects of integrating gays into the military. This report, like the Navy's 1957 Crittenden Report, blows holes in the military's justifications for forbidding gays, lesbians and bisexuals from serving in the armed forces.

Others order up the production of adhesion molecules that, like treads under a tank, move the cell forward. Why would genes do that? The answer, notes Patricia Steeg of the National Cancer Institute, is that while the genes important to metastasis are abnormally turned on, they are not necessarily abnormal themselves. A cancer cell, in many ways, is not that different from an embryonic cell...
