It's true. In fact, we're flawed. Every one of us. That is the one doctrine of Christianity (The Fall of Man) which is proved on a daily basis. Just watch the news.

It takes an effort for ANYONE to abstain from morally offensive thoughts, words, and deeds. And not just in the realm of illicit sex, but also in relation to other issues like pride, anger, envy, gluttony, greed, laziness, and the one which brings down so many otherwise virtuous people, (ta-daaah!) self-righteousness.

That being said, every one of us is in charge of learning to master their own appetites, overcome their own flaws and weaknesses, and be reponsible for their own behavior. Nobody is "born to be gay" and more than they're born to be pastry chefs. Or bank embezzlers. Or sculptors. Or sluts.

It's always an interplay fo heredity, environment, grace, and choice.

Let's try to help each other be our best. That seems the most decent thing to do.

Help each other OVERCOME, and NOT SUCCUMB, to any abnormal behavior albeit sexually or socially predisposed.
This is the most loving thing you can do for another.

Once again, which gender should a hermaphrodite fall in love with?? None of you will answer the question.

THey exist.

They have both a penis and a vagina.

Who should they be with..a man or a woman??? Or did God make "a mistake" when he allowed Hermaphrodites?? Oh, God doesn't MAKE mistakes. So, they MUST be here for a reason.

Pride, anger, envy,etc.,etc., etc., have NOTHING to do with love. Or, is LOVE one of your sins now too???

And, using your logic...since "noone is born to be gay"...then "no one is born to be heterosexual either" (logic sucks when you put your faith in a flawed book written by men). Show me the gene or the study. So, if noone is born to be gay or born to be hetero...it would follow that there is nothing wrong with either..... "Inspired by GOd!!" What a laugh. So was the Son of Sam. So is Osama. Great company.

I put my faith in the God I see and talk to everyday.
