23. Interesting
In accepting Jesus we have to accept the truth that he represents. And that truth includes the notion that homosexuality was not created by God. It is of Satan. It is Evil. Because God would never make an abomination as he describes it in the Bible.

This is getting to the point of my question. By creating an individual who partakes of "abomination" does god not bear some of the responsibility here? I understand the idea behind free will, and the concept that people must make some effort to be "good". My point is, the Christians believe god to be infallible, as I understand it. We're not talking about prison inmates "doing the nasty" by some conscious decision. We're talking about a significant portion of the population who are willing to make long term commitments. My point, I guess, is that if humans were some kind of manufactured item, this level of "failure" would indicate a severe quality control problem. I still think that homophobia in Christians is a particularly nasty form of heresy.
