^^ you're right there is a lot of hypocrisy and I can't really explain it.
I suppose so. why would He create rapists, murderers, pain, cancer etc? maybe it was the devil I don't know. Like I said I'm playing devil'sadvocate on behalf of Catholicism but I really lean towards the scientific/nature argument.

Someone said God told us to procreate......then why do nuns/priests take vows of celibacy.Are people who can't have children worth any less in God's eyes than those who can. Please school me on this. I thought love was the most important principle your religion was built on not procreation.
as far as the Catholic church, priests and nuns take a vow of celibacy for worship purposes
as far as the Bible, it calls homosexuality a disease similar to thieving or murdering and it takes 4 generations to clear that out of the bloodline.
if it's not a genetic defect or a choice maybe it's that. but according to the Bible God has a reason for all those challenges and loves all His children equally even if they don't do what He asks.
that's what the Bible says according to my memory, not necessarily what I say.
So God created us the way we are, imperfections and all. In God's eyes homosexuality is a sin and a defect, yet he created us that way and forces us to go against our instincts. That's like creating God creating us as carnivores with all the tool equipped for hunting and killing animals and no enzymes available for digesting plants. yet requiring that we only abstain from meat. I guess there is no method to God's madness when it came to creation and organization of this planet. Or maybe he's just one sick puppy.
