But IF you believe in God and the Bible, it is quite impossible to believe homosexuality is the same as race, age or gender, because that would require that God deliberately put people in a catch 22 where they had no choice in what they were but were still judged for it. God creates us male or female, black or white and we are born when we're born, but He does not create us to a certain sin. As I alluded to in a previous post, I will concede that the possibility exists for a predisposition to homosexuality in SOME cases, but in that case, it would really be no different than than someone who may have a genetic predisposition to alcoholism. It doesn't mean that it then becomes okay to be a drunk, just that the individual might have to work harder than the next guy to resist the temptation to drink.

Again, I find fault with your argument. Not too long ago, children born left handed were seen as either witches, evil, bad omen, whatever. If that were the case, why would God have created an innocent child to be judged so?

In Native American culture, a child born of blue eyes were also given the same status.

In my culture (Asian), a firstborn child that is femal brings shame into the family.

They are all based in ignorance. Of course God didn't create left handed babies, blue eyed children, or little girls for the express purpose of damnation. But

current thought at the time dictated that. Can you at least consider the possibility that the same is true of homosexuality?
