God Did NOT make you gay at birth. You cannot blame him for your sexual orientation. I know that it's a struggle, but God will not tempt you beyond what you are able to bear.
We have been told to hate the sin but love the sinner. Those who abuse you are the one's who need to open their eyes.

Wonderful question.
God did not MAKE you gay. You chose it somewhere along in your life. There was an instance somewhere in your past that sparked your homosexuality and you pursued it. It may not have happened in a flash of lightning and clap of thunder, but it did happen.
If you don't like the abuse, change your lifestyle. It won't be easy, but if you never try, you'll never know.
You were born because God has a plan for you. He said "I will create this person to do this thing in his life." Now, whether you ever find it is up to you. You certainly have an interest in life, yes? What you need to do is to become very proficient and skilled in what you do. In doing that, you will in turn serve other people in ways you may never see or never know. Being "good" at what you do is the reason you were born. A plumber allows people to have running water in their homes. A pilot allows people to fly from NYC to L.A. in a few hours. A newspaper carrier brings the news to you everyday. You were born to do something that serves or helps other people. We all were. That is the best thing one man can do for another.

Okay, check this thinking out, with some assumptions. Assume there is reincarnation. Assume that our everyday minds influence our rebirths. So if we identify our egos strongly enough with a certain group, that identification could continue through life after life. So a person could say, "Hell, yeah, I'm a man, a full grown man, a real man, I memorize football players' names, I chop wood, I run fast, I drive a Hummer" etc., etc ad nauseum, until that person is thoroughly identified in his own ego as a "man." And by identifying so strongly, and continuing that identification through life after life, what if we could actually influence our next rebirth, and be born "a man," again and again? But consider balance in nature how natural it would be to be a man in one life, and a woman in the next. So if we stayed in that "man" conversation for multiple lifetimes in a row, and created imbalance, finally consider the possibilty of a birth resulting in a man being born in a woman's body, or vice-versa?
So perhaps it's all just karma. Perhaps it just grows from what we think about and do. And our karma this lifetime is a result of what we thought about and did in previous lifetimes? So, yeah, perhaps homosexuality is a product of imbalance, but hey, so is everything else when you think about it this way - even the fact that we are born at all is imbalance.
So get off it and go have some fun while you have the chance.

its just the way some people are born , the same as I'm born blue eyed blond haired hetro .. we are all wonderfully different
its very sad that you have to undergo such abuse for something that is just natural to you ( as we know it isn't something you just choose as some may think )
god since you brought it into the question .. gave men free will in my opinion and sadly it is this free will that allows others to judge and be so unkind
know that whatever you go through makes you a stronger more wonderful person
and that if there is a god he wont judge you in the way some may believe
i know this doesn't answer your question fully as my beliefs are very different from the typical religious beliefs about gays
but i just hope maybe i have helped in some small way xx

You are NOT living in sin just because you are gay. NO ONE is living in sin for that reason. The only reason why it's considered sinful by some is that it's different and scary to them.
I admit that it must be a difficult life, though. But everyone has thier problems, otherwise there would be no room for solutions or rising to the occasion. There are divorces, drug addictions, murders, and more every day. Your problem, sad to say, is one of the harsher ones. You have my deepest sympathies.

You will answer this question with how you live your life. You will be salvation or damnation for someone in need. Read Mathew Chapter 25 and see why you were born. God loves you and will never leave you. Guess what, we all live in sin, we all fall short. Focus on serving others and every answer will be yours.
Pax Te ***.
I guess peace be with you in Latin contains something unsuitable, anyway that was my parting salutation.

I don't really know... I wish I had the answer to that though... for my sake as well...
Sometime we just have to accept the fact that we can't answer all the questions and simply trust God... God is a god and sometimes we can't understand why he does the things he does...
Sorry I know that doesn't help much but It's the best I've got...

Religiously speaking: Back in biblical times, people were looking to reproduce. They didn't have much of a population, and if you can convert others - birth them. Religion is traditional - it does not change to suit the times (at least not easily - dude, they are still battling over evolution).
Biologically speaking: Reproductive stress increases the number of homosexuals in a population. If we have more homosexuals today, it's because there is plenty of reproduction happening.

why do any of us have the crazy stuff we have to deal with every day...cleptos, pedophiles, drug addicts, alcoholics, sex addicts.... not all of them are horrible people, they just have this horrible thing to struggle with... God says He works in mysterious ways, but He also gave us laws and rules to live by... they aren't easy, but He did give them... and then, when we failed time and again at keeping them, He sent His Son to die for our sins and transgressions. Now all we have to do is accept Jesus as our Savior and we will eventually turn out okay.... not that it will make you not gay or anything, but He loves you in spite of that, just like He loves all of us in spite of our sins and flaws...
See even Christians are sinners and need His grace and mercy every day to wash away all the bad and evil things we think and do. He made us to love each other, and to love Him, and just wants us to find our way to Him... He knows we will be a little worse for the wear but He'll clean us up.
hope this helps
we all struggle
