Yes, God may have made them, but they succumbed to their own prurient interests. Don’t pawn their dysfunction off on God.

We all have temptation. It is the Civil Society that prevents us from anarchy. A society that blithely accepts every dysfunction as if it is not only normal, but acceptable, quickly declines.

How many people will fight for a morally bankrupt society?

He also gives them free will. He does not make us behave this way or that way -- that's up to us. If my family tree is any example, I was born an alcoholic. I made a decision in young adulthood never to drink. My last alcoholic drink was 47 years ago, even though my brain still struggles with the tendency. It was -- and is -- a choice. If I have to choose it every day, so be it.

Thank you, God for being more attractive to me than what my brain thinks it wants.

True. God made the people. He assembled the parts and breathed Life into them.
What the person did with those parts and with that Life is the responsibility of the person.

God did not make drunks, drug addicts, alcoholics, or serial philanderers. He made human beings. What people have done to His beautiful creation is the story of The Fall.
