Ei ole homoseksuaaleja, tai heteroseksuaaleja, vaan

Let me begin by prefacing my comments with a not so obvious scriptural truth that will lay some foundation. I have read many of the arguments put forth by so-called science. I have also perused many 'Christian' responses to some of these scientifically based suppositions. There is 'scientific' research that suggests that homosexuals are 'born' that way and that it is therefore genetic.



Now, considering the fact that those who believe that statement are not at all interested in quotes from the scriptures, the average Bible student responds with scripture anyway. We respond with, "No! man is not born homosexual, God created man heterosexual. God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve."



How many times have I heard that one? It is funny, but it is not true, and the fact that it is not true is very important to the reason why YHVH declares a 'sodomite' an abomination.



Man is not created homosexual OR heterosexual. Man was created male and female.



Because of choosing to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, he has as much a propensity to lie with his own gender as he would with the opposite gender. (For the purposes of avoiding constant repetition, can we assume the women here as well? Thank you.)



The reason that YHVH has given man Torah is because, within Torah, there are rules for male and female behavior. This clearly teaches students of scripture that man can and does behave in any manner that he chooses, hence the reason for the rules.



If man was truly BORN heterosexual, then why the need for instructions concerning who you should and should not lie with? The things we are BORN with are not a matter of choice. Our hair color, skin pigmentation, and facial features are an example. We cannot choose these things genetically, however we can altar, by choice, AFTER our birth, our hair color and facial features with cosmetics and surgery. Once you have chosen to change those things, you now have to maintain those conditions the rest of your life (just ask Michael Jackson!!).
