How Many Gays Must God Create Before We Accept That He Wants Them Around?

[Gingersnap]

Are you saying it's the equivalent question because "god" made both? Or are you saying it's the equivalent question because you equate homosexuals with pedophiles?

I would guess the first. It's a common misunderstanding of Christian theology that because a thing (inclination, natural law, behavior, defect, talent, etc.) exists that it equally worthy on moral plane simply because "God made it". That's kind of a kindergartener version of God = Love.

For traditional Christians, the Fall changed the game on all levels and so we live in a natural world (as opposed to a paradisaical world). The natural world was not created for our comfort or glory and so it filled with phenomena that is hurtful, destructive, and sometimes confusing (as well as joyful, nourishing, and edifying).

In an ignorant sense, God "made" everything including fuzzy bunnies and herpes simplex. In traditional Christian terms, bunnies are good and herpes simplex is awful. Similarly, celibacy, chastity and/or monogamy are good and adultery, promiscuity, and sexual addiction are awful. Homosexuality is simply another sexual sin. ;)

Isn't that what I said? :D

They are both sins. Are they equivalent sins? I don't know.

Interestingly enough the Biblical prohibition on homosexuality is nestled right in between child sacrifice and bestiality.

I'm not interested in mythology.
