Yes, well clearly "Natural Selection" has failed at keeping the balance as well. I said we were created to oversee the animal kingdom I didnt say we were fulfilling our purpose.

Naturally, you and I disagree, but just because you misunderstand the truth doesn't make it false. Science only accounts for what we can see. What we dont see is much more important. Under the observational circumstances that you surround yourself with, homosexuality seems acceptable and humans are as animals. But try reading between the lines. Try seeing things from your Creator's perspective.

Like any sin, homosexuality is an addiction. The more one resists the temptation/craving, the less power the sin has over the mind.

They would be on a practicing Jew.
Why ask? Do you want to be inside the church? If so.. talk to Jesus..
If not.. we are free to practice our religion and believe as we will, and you are free to believe as you will.

Yes, I am! My mistake on trying to make a point about Old Testament, using a loaded subject like homosexuality.

Fair enough!
In retrospect I could have been more clear as to my intents.

The NT does condemn homosexuality as well, but putting the bible aside, show me a pair of homosexuals who can naturally produce a child (without any unnatural genetic modification), and I will accept homosexuality as a natural state of being.
Brain scans have provided the most compelling evidence yet that being gay or straight is a biologically fixed trait. The scans reveal that in gay people, key structures of the brain governing emotion, mood, anxiety and aggressiveness resemble those in straight people of the opposite sex. The differences are likely to have been forged in the womb or in early infancy, says Ivanka Savic, who conducted the study at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden.

Jesus never said homosexuality was a sin. Christians try to back up their bigotry with the torah ("old" testament) and Paul's letters. Anything but Jesus's actual teachings.
