Homosexuality

[EnemyPartyII]

He didn't "create" murder, and he didn't "create" homosexuality. He created light, which filled the darkness. He created life, and murder kills it. He created the woman for man to have sex with, so children could be made simply and effectively, and homosexuality taints that. He created possessions, he didn't create stealing. He created truth, but lies still exist - it doesn't mean he created lies.

murder and homosexuality are NOT comparable.

sure they are, both are forbidden by the law. both incur the curse. both can have "repentance unto salvation" applied unto them.

Um eating shellfish is forbidden by Biblical law too... as are women wearing pants...

Righto, wall!

The difference is, we don't have a lobby of murderers who frequent murderer bars, and Christian forums debating that they have they God-given right to practice their love of snuffing out life.

One sin to God is the same as any and every other sin. We break one commandment and we are guilty of breaking all of them. That is the point.

This argument is tired. By making this statement you imply that you believe in an all or none with regards to biblical laws. If so, then by your standing on this debate you are also implying that you disregard all of the biblical law.

Why would God hate homosexuality?

He created it...

where is your information that backs up this claim? Even a shred?

does homosexuality exist?

Yes.

Did God create everything, or at the very least, plan and allow for everything to be created?

Yes.

What, you need a diagram?

God does not create sin, it is against His nature.

And this statement does not in any way provide even a smidgeon of evidence that God created people as homosexuals.

well where does homosexuality come from, if not from God?

Not something that *gasp* evolved naturally???

*gasp* do you assume everything comes from God, regardless? *gasp*

yes

so God creates sin? murder? rape?

God allows them to exist. Jesus saying "love one another as I have loved you" is God's way of asking us not to give in to our baser urges and hurt other people though.

I mean, its not as if anything can exist without God's approval, right?

 

[Jet_A_Jockey]

Just because God allows something to exist does not mean that He approves of it.

So things can exist without God's approval?

Duh!

It comes from the sinful imagination of depraved mankind, is where it comes from. You can't pin that behaviour on a holy God.

Pin it on Satan. Yeah! That's the ticket!

You are confusing my statement I think. God allows things to manifest, that does not mean that He approves of them. Approve meaning He likes them.

God doesn't send people to hell, they send themselves.
