As it happens, many of the same things that deceive people in wealthy, “advanced” nations today into thinking that God doesn’t exist and that they don’t need Jesus to be saved from Hell are what also convinces people that it’s okay to live in homosexuality. People think to not follow the world is to miss out on something, when really people who don’t follow God are the ones that miss out on fulfillment here and for eternity.

But isn’t this something that God gave to us...choice? I walk down the street every day and there are hundreds of choices I make.

I disagree with homosexuality as a recreational act. But there is no law against it and God and the law say it’s okay to decided to do it./...as long as it doesn’t harm anyone.

FPO:
I guess one has to suffer from an abnormality to really grasp what it is like - if I can’t walk in another man’s shoes, I won’t arbitrarily condemn him because I find parts of him inexplicable.
Perhaps if I had suffered horrible sexual abuse as a child and was still in therapy at 70, I might be able to condemn one of the homosexual acquaintances I have - if I had also overcome and become “normal”. If, after being raised in a decent and Christian household, I married early and struggled for years trying to figure out was wrong and discovered I had no attraction for women, I might be able to condemn another - only if I was also able to overcome the malady.
As soon as you have the same experiences and triumph over them, I will consider your words.
