Why did God create people with a hormone imbalance? Why did he create Gays?

Guess what, there's alot of things that don't add up. If you believe in God, heaven and all, then close your rational mind, cause it just don't add up.  Don't forget to wonder how 6 million Jews were put to death during WW II, if God was omnipotent and benevolent, do you think that could've happened?

It's usually caused by a lack of affirmation in early childhood. It's ironic because the thing gay men seem to crave the most is masculinity.\n\nSame thing for butch women. Lack of affirmation as females in early childhood.

It's really just psychological. Many people feel that things that are natural are better simply because they occur naturally. In a religious context, things that are created by their great God should be better for them than things created by potentially evil men. I'd venture to say most people like this might also feel that we don't know enough about ourselves and chemicals to know what reactions we do and don't have to them...which would be entirely because they are ignorant and lacking of that knowledge themselves. These are probably the same people that think cell phone radio waves are going to give us cancer.

It honestly is hormones,  some people produce more than others.  Also, certain conditions, like ADD produce more sweat thus potentially more order.

Ok Buckar you have a point here, now years ago when Lucy evolved and passed our DNA on down the line we soon began to walk different and get taller. See we had short legs to be able to survive on the terain and the legs were the power to run from the animals that could eat us. Oh sorry we are on Adam and Eve aren't we. After reading all these great answers I noticed one thing. Most have different answers. Now I find that there are 2 Creators, God and Lord God who created God. Jesus did have kids and hung with Mary so he could use her money to support him and he supposedly had kids too. He may have had illigedimate ones too cause they didn't have good birth control back then.As for the nipples on man they may be for the gay men. I mean its like you said God doesn't make misakes and I know a lot of gay people that are Religious and good.As for the person that stated woman was created as a helper to man I think he should have said slave cause a lot of women are supporting lazy men today.I don't see why people say the bible is fact but when I say my horoscope is true all the time they say oh that is man written and the chance of it being true is only cause some people may believe it and might have a day where it might go that way. Make sense eh ! I think we evolved from like viruses and stuff like insects did. If animals were created first and then man in Gods image only by feelings and not physical then animals are too. I say my animals love me and never sin against me where as man does, did and will continue to. Most preachers that are child molesters think it is not a sin because it is not with a woman and a man is ok cause they have written this down through time. The Monks had homosexuallity all the time and hid it, yet burned people at the stake cause they thought they were witches. This was to cover up their fears that they may be found guilty of being gay.Noah, This is utter nonsense, No way can you get 2 of all creatures on Earth into a boat for 40 days and not have them eat each other.Too many species to find to fit the boat.And how did it flood the whole world when they didn't have the weather map to show that all was flooded.I am sure that the 2 so called Gods did not send hundreds of animals from thousands of miles all over the world to get to a boat in one spot.I wonder why Jesus was in one spot on this vast Earth and at the time where there was no travel to spread the word of 2 Gods faster. If Noah had God mentally control the animals to board the boat and control the situation then why didn't he crack the whip on those darn Unicorns ! And if man is all so mighty over animals then someone was reincarnated into my parakeet cause he can say over 120 different phrases and I can't fly or immitate his language. Sorry so long as I just stopped here cause it was an interesting question .

He calls homosexuality unnatural and an abomination.\n\nLeviticus 18:22: "Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination."\n\nRomans 1:26-28: "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;"

i think it's fate. god made gays and lesbians that way much like he made judas to betray him in the end. god knew that judas would betray him but as judas was destined to be that way, god did nothing and let fate have its way. indeed, god did nothing to change the destiny of judas because it was his destiny, his fate. thus if god could make people's fate like that of judas, who says he can't  make gays and lesbians because after all he's all powerful. it's not so much about the misconception that god does not like gay people. that's bulshit. if he did't, he would have struck them down with lightning and thunder the minute they were born. \n\nbeing gay is hard and if these gay people had a choice, they would not have been gay.  the fact of the matter is that they don't have a choice except to be themselves and suffer the discrimination brought about by people who think that they are so righteous and superior to those who are gay. the truth is they are just arrogant, narrow-minded and obnoxious people who think so highly of themselves.  if it were really a choice, the choice would have been between being discriminated against and being untrue to one's self. is there really a choice?

To put a check on population levels.  Seriously.\n\nA link between a mother having high fertility and  her chances of having a gay child has recently been discovered.  This connection resolves the objection that homosexuality should have been bred out of existence if it were hereditary.  The increased fertility of the mother cancels out the lack of offspring of the homosexual child.

Because God created us to laugh in joy and to cry in sorrow.We are the human beings,we cant change Gods creation.

It makes immature people uncomfortable, because all they think about are the "acts" of a gay person. Then some decide to hide behind scripture as a defense for there intolerance. For the record, if you believe the same god powerful enough to create the entire universe cares what two adults do in the privacy of there own bedroom as long as there not hurting anyone else, you need to reevaluate your spiritual priorities.

Interesting concept.\n\nPerhaps God made some people barren, for the same reason, or arranged so that not every act of sexual congress would produce offspring.\n\nI don't think you'll sell that idea to the zealots though...

God made the first humans over 160,000 years ago and he made a lot of them, both male and female. Look around - this is the world that God has made, including evolution. God made evolution to carry his creation forward. Some of those humans, both male and female, don't have children, and some of them do. It's all part of God's creation. Isn't it great?

Genetic make-up dictates everyone's sexual orientation.  Environment or family life growing up have nothing to do with it.  Some studies suggest it is the amount of hormones (testosterone or estrogen)in the body during the early development stages.\n\nPhysical or emotional trauma as a child can create problems for a person later in life, but it will not change someone from being straight to being gay.

Before we are born GOD has our life planned out and we are born the Sexuality  that we are going to be. People now days say we go GAY  or BI because that's what we like , But to be honest guys and girls may say there st8 and act st8  but really be GAY or BI  that is to keep from being called names and even worse. No matter what we are It was what GOD meant for us to be and GOD loves all his children

God made humans from love so that he would have someone to love, take care of.

I'm a Christian and I am not "opposed to gay people". But when you tell me these two things then I have to respond in what I hope is a compassionate manner.\n\n"The discovery that some of us are created and/or shaped in our earliest infancy toward same-gender attraction was made in the last 150 years."\n\nThat may or may not be true although for the sake of discussion let's say that it is. Many people have a tendency towards a particular form of behavior. When they get old enough to make mature decisions they have to decide whether that behavior is beneficial or not and since we are talking about God, whether that behavior is in His will for their life or not.\n\nSome people seem to be born with a terrible temper and are prone to violent behavior. They either end up controling their urges or they reap the consequences of giving in to them. It could be a struggle that they have for their entire life and one that they cannot always win. Hopefully they don't commit murder or just give up and make themselves a menace to those with whom they come into contact.\n\nJust because homosexuality isn't exactly the same doesn't mean that there are not legitimate parallels. Someone who finds themself attracted to members of the same sex still makes a choice about how they are going to deal with that emotion just like someone who is prone to anger.\n\nWhen you talk about not bringing up the "Adam and Steve" argument I have to go outside of the guidlines you want to impose on this discussion. It is apparent from the command God gave to Adam and Eve to go forth and multiply that He created men to have sex with women for the purpose of procreation. God also made sex an enjoyable encounter between two people as an added bonus. So where does that leave today's "Adam" if he is not attracted to any of the "Eves" in this world but instead finds himself attracted to the "Steves" around him?\n\nThe book of Corinthians provides at least one answer to that question and Jesus spoke of another for those who were able to receive it.\n\n1 Corinthians 6:9  Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality,  (10)  nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.  (11)  And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.  (12)  "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be enslaved by anything.  (13)  "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food"--and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.\n\nIn this passage the Apostle Paul is speaking to relatively new believers who have been born again by the Holy Spirit. He talks about how some of them USED to be things like drunkards and men who practice homosexuality.\n\nWhen I came to Christ at age 43 I had been a drunkard for many years and had developed a chemical addiction to alcohol. I haven't had a drink since a short time before becoming a Christian but it was a real struggle for me until I was born again. That doesn't mean that I'm never tempted to drink or that I've lost the desire to have a cold beer on a hot day but it does mean that now I have supernatural assistance to overcome my struggle.\n\nI don't go around telling people about how Jesus made wine for the guests at a wedding and how I would be justified in drinking since it's not illegal and doesn't hurt anyone else. Instead I know that it's not in God's will for my life to drink alcohol and so I consistently make the choice every day of my life

I think that people are retarded because of problems with their genetics, or because of bad choices mothers make while pregnant.  \nOriginally, when man was first created, there was no sin in the world and everything was perfect (spiritually, physically and genetically)  When sin entered the world, through the choices of original man) that began a downward slide (spiritually, physically, genetically) that we are continuing to feel the effects of today.   I hope I answered your question, if not, maybe read The Case for a Creator by Lee Strobel, maybe that'll help
