Then why aren't Catholic priests llowed to marry? Are they supposed to have a relationship only with God? Also, Christianity preaches that you should be ashamed of sex. If they wanted people to reproduce why would they make them fear reproduction?
Is it because homosexuals are a minority, and humans naturally despise who isn't following the herd? Does religion preach against homosexuality so that it could attract the majority?
As a transgender female growing up in a fundamentalist, evangelical Christian church, I was subjected to mental anguish and child abuse. Before publicly renouncing my Christian faith and embracing atheism early in high school, I suffered night terrors about dying and going to eternal Hell; it was, at the experts teach, running around screaming with my eyes wide open, yet not remembering anything the next morning.
Religious faith is just sick, because of what it does to human beings.
