No, but conservatives do believe that people are ultimately responsible for their behavior. Why does O'Reilly and gay activists angerly insist that it is impossible for someone to stop behaving gay? It really boils their blood pressure at any suggestion that being in the gay lifestyle is anything but genetic.

And I think that O'Reilly would agree 100% with your first sentence. Individuals should be responsible for their own behavior. This means that if somebody is born gay (genetic argument) or is raised and developed to be gay (societal influences) than they should be left alone with their decision and accountable for their own actions. Leave them alone. (And also, they should leave straight people alone about their sexuality).

Leave them alone.

They should be left alone but they insist on pushing their agenda in schools, changing what marriage is, pressuring organizations like the Boy Scouts to change their beliefs, pushing their junk science (like the new 'sickness' of 'homophobia'). If someone wants to live that way fine, but don't expect everyone to believe their behavior is healthy and normal.

I realize you're not making the genetics argument here. It just seems like a good opportunity to post some links on the issue:

A quote from the article: A recording artist and national speaker, Bennett's Huntington, Conn.-based group, Stephen Bennett Ministries, says that it offers help to people who want to "come out" of the homosexual lifestyle.

Why should he "leave them alone"?
