If they "gave into temptation" then why is it that I as a straight woman have never been tempted to be with another woman?

Why are some people tempted to love their own sex and others are not if gay people are supposedly born to be attracted to the opposite sex?

Christians: Isn't it obvious from all the answers to these questions (links provided) that you are...?

...rationalizing because not only does scripture not provide answers, it doesn't even support the answers you're giving?

And the alternative? That the god of scripture is -not- a god of love, is too frightening for you to consider?

Couldn't Jesus have been a man who understood Love, and used the concepts and terminology his people understood to try and convey an understanding of Love that was alien to the god they worshipped?

I know, your eyes are glazing over and knee-jerk devotion to -religion- (not Love, not what Jesus taught, but religion) will provoke denial and quotes from scripture. But every question I've asked denies any belief that the scriptural "God is Love".

Do none of you have the faintest doubt that scripture god could be a god of love? Do you not see how those of us who are not Christian have doubts because you cannot agree on an answer for these challenges? Do you not see that even your own scripture does not agree with your answers?

Do you only believe only because you are affraid or want something?

OK, what if God want you to follow him because he loves you but there is no reward such as heaven and no punishment such as hell. My Question really is that do you believe because deep inside you are a really good person and really feel your God's love, or is it because you think being good gain you an entry into heaven or in case there is a hell? Will you still be a strong beliver if it is just an option to be with God but you will never get rewarded or punish if you choose to not to follow God?
Basically, will you choose to leave God if he doesn't provide anything to you at all?

What would it take for you to be comfortable with an ex-prison inmate living close to you? NOT A SEX OFFENDER.

If an ex-offender moved in next door to you what would you need to feel comfortable living in that proximity to someone who had been convicted of a serious crime, but not a sex offender??

Norse creation myth and Genesis?

this is not a religious question, so please do not state your beliefs here.

I am writing a paper. I would like to know which is supposed to have come first (I mean, which story was told first, if you know): the Norse creation myth or the creation myth in Genesis?

Again, this is not a religious question, really--i would just like to know what I asked, not what your religious beliefs are. Also, thank you for your interest but please only answer if you know.
