Chance, Why are you trying to feed the flames of the argument that attempts to pit scientific research and religion against each other? Logical, scientific knowledge and spiritual mystic experience both make up the human experience, no? So whether "homosexuality" is scientific, sociological, spiritual, and/or sexual, the question remains: If God, the Creator, made the entire universe, including humanity (hetero, gay, bi, or celibate,) why would the Creator be an egotistical, deviant, unjust energy that would send a select few (gay people) to hell? How does this jibe with the peaceful, all-loving, all-forgiving, all-accepting person of Christ?
How many gay people do you know? Trust me some people are just born gay. I don't know if it's a gene, the way their parents did it, the car they used to drive to the hospital, etc. Some people are just gay. Why oh why does this bother you so? Does the gene thing really matter? I'll give you a few examples. If anyone over 30 remembers the show Who's The Boss. The little kid on the show grew up and said he was gay. Guess what? He always acted like a gay person. He was effeminate. This is not a knock or a bash. He was gay. I had a cousin who came out. We were all so shocked someone muttered,"Duh". We all knew he was gay. From a young child he was gay. He wasn't abused. He wasn't hit in the head. (Well, I threw a G.I. Joe at him once but I don't think that turned him gay. It was a pretty manly looking G.I. Joe.) You know the author Ann Rice? Her son is gay. A friend of mine told me he was gay years before he came out. He also spoke of how intelligent and insightful he was. A girl I went to school with who always was around the guys and liked more masculine things...Guess what she was...DRUM ROLL...Gay. Do you know anybody you knew your whole life that turned out to be gay? More often then not you can tell at a young age. What does that tell me? It's instinct more than anything else. I'm not saying some people aren't abused and decide to be gay. Even then though so what? If they can lead a happier life with a partner of the same sex how does it effect you? Actually, if you're a straight male it's WONDERFUL. Number one for some reason there's more gay men then gay women by most statistics I've read. Number two most gay guys I know have good jobs, the latest fashions and hair styles, and can cook up masterpieces(I am aware these are stereotypes but in a lot of ways compliments as well). Yeah, we need more guys like that to compete with. Let them be gay and happy. So when your dream girl breaks up with that rich guy who's always working out and has great hair thank your local homosexual. You sir now have a chance. My favorite thing in the world are "Ex Homosexuals". To hear a man who is obviously gay on T.V. claim he is no longer attracted to men is amusing at best. Open your arms brothers and sisters. Jesus loves homosexuals like everyone else.
