Did God create fake evidence suggesting that homosexuality is natural, just to test our faith?

Question

Just like how God created fake dinosaur bones to test our faith, because really evolution is false and the Earth is only 6,000 years old.

"Sexual orientation begins with a myriad intertwining influences — some genetic, some hormonal and gestational, some the product of cultural conditioning.

The mix for any individual is impossible to unpick. No one acquainted with the science can still believe that homosexuality is a choice or a disorder. It is part of normal human variation, just like traits such as height or intelligence to which genes and the environment both contribute."

Mark Henderson is the Science Editor of The Times

The quote is from an times article no longer available online about research done by Anthony Bogaert of Brock University in Canada.

Answer 1

Thank you for giving us the real facts.

If anything, God is challenging us to grow in our compassion for others.

Will we accept God's challenge to love all people, or will we continue down that wide path of judging others, excluding many?

People cannot choose whether they are born gay or straight, but they can choose how they respond to people who are different than them.

Answer 2

I have not come across any 'fake' evidence. And most CHRISTians don't believe dinosaur bones are fake.

The quote you have given us that says homosexuality is a natural variation is merely a statement and does not contain any evidence to prove or disprove the fact.

With a little more information on what the evidence is behind that statement I might be able to give to you a better answer for your question. As for now my answer is no, God did not create fake evidence for anything.

Hope this helps.

****EDIT- I have read the article and it appears that it is based on the idea that someone is more likely to be gay if they have many older brothers.

In order to come to that conclusion you would have to have faith first in the idea that it is a natural variation.

The study seems to be bias. Although, the parameters of the study and how it was conducted is not divulged so it would be hard to discern.

It doesn't really say much as far as evidence is concerned. If they isolated a gene of some sort then we would have something to talk about.

Even with the new information I will have to stick with my answer. No, God did not create fake evidence.

Answer 3

First of all God is not a man that he should lie. God cannot lie or as you say, create false evidence for anything. Secondly, where did you get the idea that homosexuality is normal? If God is the answer for how the world was created (which I believe), and he created homosexuality to be normal, then wouldn't we all have the same body parts so that we could interchange sexually? However, if the big bang theory was how creation came into being, then wouldn't the human race have evolved into beings with both sex organs? According to science subjects over a long period of time adapt to their surroundings, and we know for a fact homosexuality has been around for a long time.

Both of these men are excellent communicators, and will give you the answers to every question that you can ask about creation, GOD or JESUS without judging you for your lifestyle or for asking the question.
May GOD Bless you, and give you all the answers that you need.

Answer 5

Ask yourself a question, why would God create tricks to question our faith? The very fact that he can't be seen, heard, smelled, tasted, or touched are far greater problems that put faith to the test. Add to the fact that there seems to be no evidence that prayer even works.

So, the question has no merit since you cannot (nor can anyone) interpret the actions of God because we have no material means of relating to His whims, thoughts, or ideas.

Answer 6

1. as a Christian, I assure you the earth is much older than 6000 yr old. Bible and science do not disagree on this.
2. Homosexuality is an abomination to the Lord. It goes against the natural engineering of reproductivity.
3. I guess I can say this again...
If you believe that your great great grandpappy is a monkey, feel free. As for me, the Bible says man was created from the dust and He breathed life in him. If we were originally created in His image, that looks much better in my family tree.

Answer 7

WHat evidence is there. Occording to christians, the evedince suggest that Homosexuality is not natural. The vary idea that you need to ask about its natural exsitance being made by god proves in its own right that is is natural and that your fate that God doesn't make mistakes and homosexuality is okay. The act of having sex with the same sex is what is concidered wrong, as far as my research is concerned.

Answer 8

I think that all these questions come from a void within you. You will not find what you are looking for by throwing out inflammitory baseless questions. The solutions to the self loathing you show on this board will continue to manifest until you look within yourself and choose to see yourself as a complete and whole human being. Stop acting inferior and get some maturity.

Answer 9

Where is the evidence that God created fake homosexuality to tell you it is natural?

Please give some kind of proof. I would like to read on it.

Answer 10

God created you for who you are-as well as homosexuality. It’s a touchy issue-especially when combined with the Church. I think God makes some people homosexual and bisexual to test their faith. However, with Satan present, he usually gets these individuals to turn from Him.
