did god make gay people aswell as straight?

[Breakfloor]

because in the adam an eve bit theres 3 men and one woman.

so this means he either invented gang banging or gay people aswell as straight.

[velocity]

no, because gods existence is false.

[Browney]

God gave free will. He did not "make" straight or gay men. He just made the species and gave them free will to do what they wish. So we ourselves make us gay or not. Hope that helps. :)

[Breakfloor]

to velocity - true but the people who beleive in him beleive he doesnt like gay people because he wouldve made gay people but theres proof in the bible he did, or he invented gang banging or even rape.

umm and what if he did make gay people and straight but made gave the next generation the right to choose? - kinda just made that up sorry if it doesnt make sence.

[Browney]

Well, god can't create rape or "gang banging." God creates material and like I said, god just gives us free will. If we use this free will to rape someone, we created rape, not god.

I think devout christians don't like gay men because it means they waste millions of little lives (if you get my meaning). And it's against the christian laws to kill. Really, I'm probably just chatting **** so if anyone actually knows the answer that'll be a help. :P

The story of adam and eve is not meant to be taken literally
because the population wouldnt have really been able to spread
as they only had 2 sons
its just a story.

[English]

no, because gods existence is false.
You say that like it's a fact. At the end of the day that's YOUR opinion like it's someones opinion that he does exist.

Adam lived till 930 ?!

It's actually all to do with interpretation of the bible. To begin with many devout Christians take the whole Adam and Eve thing very seriously and therefore they think this is what God intended for everyone. i.e. Man and Woman get together, multiply and all that stuff. God doesn't mention any man on man action, so there should be none:

"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."

Then there are other parts of the bible which directly say "homosexuality is bad":

" And with a man you shall not lie with as a man lies with a woman; it is an abomination."
"If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads."

[Virgin Mary]

According to Genesis 6:1 - 4 the sons of God helped with procreation. I assume the ancestors of creatures on Earth, Biblical or not, committed incest unless humans were at one point able to reproduce without having sex though.

[FlyingJesus]

Adam lived till 930 ?!

In Genesis and parts of other early books of the Bible, people often lived many hundreds of years. What's strange is that Adam didn't manage to get Eve preggers until he was 130 lol.

In answer to the question of gay people, as mentioned God is believed to have given free will to His people, and from this (mixed with sin) many things came about - one of which is sodomy, and therefore homosexuals. The Bible does not say anything about the state of mind that is homosexuality, as it was probably put down as just a physical thing back then, but it does say that the act of sodomy (bumsex for those who don't know) is a mortal sin. There's a part in Leviticus that mentions "no man should lie with man", which basically means two males shouldn't be getting it on.

[lAdmire]

no.
he created straight people.
if you look, you'll notice that back then, there were no gay people.
but, people created it.
us humans.
i don't believe in it.
i think it's when someone can't find a woman after awhile they give up & think it's because they like men instead.
then they start believing it, etc.
it sounds dumb but lol, i think it's true.

some people are just born gay. i dont think its when "they cant find a woman after a while, they give up and go for men"

[Spectate]

Yeah! We all descend from Adam and Eve. Forget that evolution rubbish! Where's the science behind that? :rolleyes:

[hobo]

bible = **.
who cares.

[Browney]

bible = **.
who cares.

Apparently 71% of the population.

And for the record, I'm agnostic.

[Virgin Mary]

You aren't born gay. It's more than likely sexuality is an adaptation brought on by your upbringing. That's why gay people tend to be closer to their mothers than their fathers etc. etc. more generalisations etc.

[GommeInc]

God gave humans free will, perhaps the biggest mistake which makes him imperfect, thus, his existence is false.

[:Liam]

Yeah! We all descend from Adam and Eve. Forget that evolution rubbish! Where's the science behind that? :rolleyes:
****. Did You really say that?

We have found remains of previous ancestors such as homo erectus, Neanderthols, Australiapithicicus and many more. The brain size of these have increased over the years up to us (Homo Sapiens). Many of theese ancestors have developed the ability of basic communication and tool use. These are just some of the basic facts behind Evolutionary Science.

In my opinion god doesnt exist.

anyway our sexuality is defined by upbringing and different hormone balances.

Uhh.. rolling eyes was supposed to indicate sarcasm. :P

[lScottl]

To be honest, theres nothing saying god is real/unreal, no-one will ever know. You cant say science has proved it wrong, because it hasent. Science has proven the 7 day creation wrong, not God.

i actually hate you, your advice to other people in various threads is absolute crap. & your opinions are worse. at least back it up with a little more evidence next time?

& yeah, seems hypocritical of me to say such after my statement of god being 'unreal' but if you were to ask for some evidence as to why, im sure i could give you a good argument.

[g]

gay/straight people are gay/straight because of desire,

[chilloutrich]

if we are talking about adam and eve making the populations...one word comes to mind and its insest lol.

i think the adam and eve story is jus a representation of how humans developed on earth, and adam and eve just happened to be the examples in the story, they werent real, jus a figure of speech to show how humans came to earth.


In my view, we developed from the smallest thing of dust of which evolved into a small insect and developed into new things and then we developed as mammals through gorrilas and so on. we ourselves are a species of animal, hence us and animals being mammals. we simply just developed from that. if you are thinking who created the earth, if it was 'God', think about all the solar system and ask yourself, who created the other planets? It is an unanswerable question, and the closest we can get to the answers is most likely through scientists views and research and philosophers interpretations and theories :).

In the case of god creating gay and straight people, it links to my earlier explanation of what i think adam and eve were, again we developed and somehow it developed and the sexual actions just got given names, straight and gay :). for all we know, gay could be the new straight haha!
