the hammer of homosexuality

[loganonekenobi]

I had a thought (this is dangerous I know).

to the Bible homosexuality is a sin.  A sin meaning that it is a choice by the offending human.... not the force of God.

So if that be the case then homosexuality is in no part biological since that would be God's doing.

as far as I know we as humans do not purposely align the fetus to be a certain gender or sexual orientation. Not yet anyway (Gatica!)

Yet there is some growing evidence that sexual orientation is at least in part biological.

now i'm not saying it's conclusive by any means but the evidence is getting stronger in this direction.

By that logic then God is at least in some way responsible for homosexuality.

If that also be the case then this is strong evidence that homophobic men wrote the Bible.  A God of any reasonable thought would not create something then tell others to destroy it unless that god was truly evil.

Now  I make the connection to gay marriage and it seems a lot more clear why the Christians are against any recognition of any sort of gay rights.  It would undermine the very idea that the Bible is the word of God.  which of course we fully understand.

Please give me your thoughts on this matter and maybe give me different directions to explore on this subject.

Your arguement fails for two reasons. One you misidentifying/define sin

Sin is any thought or activity that is outside the expressed will of God.

Two in order for your conclusion about homosexuality being defined in the bible as a sin, you have to assume the all heterosexual sex has been permitted.

Meaning if one could have sex just based on heterosexual want it would be "ok" then your arguement would make sense. Because only then you can say sexual orientation was specifically targeted. This however is not the case.

I don't know if you are aware or not, but their is a strict probation on ALL sexual activity outside the confines of a sanctified marriage. This means that everyone is to suppress all sexual urges and desires in word thought, and deed. Unless one is in a sanctified marriage with another then all sex is off limits.

This is in direct violation of all of our basic/primal desires or needs. Not just the homosexual. That make all homosexual activity a sexual sin just like any other. No worse no better. As such it faces the same restrictions and demand for atonement and repentance as does every other sexual sin.

why would your god make us sexual creatures and then demand us to forgo that desire until only a specific set of circumstances occur? Why would a good and loving god do this and then threaten us with hell in the after life and make us feel guilt in this one.

The answer: A) God is a cruel jokester or
B) there is no god and the whole thing was made up by men who were/are homophobic.
