So its a Gift from God now?
Were ANY of us to claim “our heterosexuality is a Gift from God,” we’d be thoroughly condemned by liberaldom.
Not from the God who gave us the Bible. Some other god.
If it is such a gift from God, shouldn’t he ask himself the question why God also created those funny two-legged beings with bumps on their chests who give birth to other human beings?
His mom is one of them, for Pete’s sake.
For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. (Romans 1:26,27)
I think he misread it. It's got a "gift", it's "giving over"--i.e. abandonment.
I have heard this “ gift from God” line of reasoning before. However, it was being used by a gay man who said that even though he was gay, he remained celibate and never acted on his impulses because he knew it is sinful to do so. He felt like that was his cross to bear, given him by God.
As long as he remains celibate, who can criticize him? Not me.
I think that that for the CEO of Apple, who is acting on his impulses, he will
find a bit of a bit of a different reception when we all get sorted out in the end.
We always knew that Apple products were gay...I guess we know why now...
