I found this article after reading it then tell me. 65% engaged in heterosexual ?? that is incredible!!
Do you still think that God is wrong???
According to the tally of 40 foster-parents, 12 foster mothers sexually abused their charges, nine of whom molested foster-daughters, and 28 foster-fathers sexually abused their charges. The data showed that 18 percent of foster-fathers sexually abused foster-sons. Overall, 65 percent of foster-parent perpetrators engaged in heterosexuality and 35 percent in homosexuality with their charges.
Family Research Institute pointed out that homosexuals comprise between 2 to 4 percent of adults, as studies reported, "thus the figures above indicate a disproportionate amount of homosexual molestation."
The study is based on data provided by the Illinois Dept. of Children & Family Services and the Minnesota Dept. of Human Services.

THESE ARE THE ONES THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT. This raises the question that we can't answer. Did they prosecute them??

I don't think your Jesus would have ever spoken the way you just spoke.
Second of all, mixing up homo/heterosexuality with raping children, doesn't only make you the moron, the mix-up of these things makes you more like an oxymoron.
Actually offensive nonsense like this doesn't even deserve an answer. You already got way too much attention.
If you don't know how wrong this is, then you probably will never learn. For most people I have hope in better education, for you there probably won't be any hope.
It's a good thing that people like you believe in Hell.

Hmmm, somehow, the fact that your source is one that has a distinct gain to be got from misinformation of this kind in particular, causes me to doubt the accuracy of your statement.
Can you post a related article NOT from a christian site?
I'm finding it difficult to see your point, also. If it's to help validate your discriminations, it is a very poor example.
Tell me, do you know the amount of homosexual abuse that goes on within the christian church? I could give you an idea, although I highly doubt you could allow yourself to believe it.
Knights are renouned for their honour, sense of justice and chivalry. You it seems, are but a mere man, clinging to a picture of a knight as a poorly conceived form of symbolism.
Your words betray this.
You and those like you, may be able to manipulate the less intelligent of those americans you target, but you are truly weak in comparison to the British mentality. Why do you think we don't have nowhere near as many fundamentalists over here?
It's because generally speaking, WE have the ability to see the attempted deceit the ironically called 'loving' church tries to impose.
No wonder christianity (in the UK at least) is fast running out of people to occupy its pews...

Maybe it's because the foster parents that adopted the children intended to molest them in the first place.
I don't see why God is wrong about homosexuality just from the given data. Are you implying that homosexuality is normal because insane foster parents molest children of the same gender as them?

Firstly we're talking about statistics presumably only done in Illinois, if you look at world statistics usually child abusers are heterosexuals even though they will abuse any child even one of their own sex, which brings me to my second point, it's not a question of sexual orientation but a question of sick minds, these people are pedophiles!!!
I am a Christian but I do believe that homosexuals would have chosen to be straight if they could have, they can't help their feelings and attractions so I don't think anyone has the right to condemn them, after all the bible itself says that where there is love there is God.
I think you are generalizing and judging - let God be the judge!!!

This article is sad and disturbing and I always pray over these type of situations, however to answer your question I don't need the article. God is never wrong, it is impossible for him to be wrong about this or anything else.
I do think people like this need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, especially foster parents, those children are supposed to be going to safety and these are the worse kind of perpetrators. I am a christian, so this is a very conflicting thing for me because I am against killing anyone, but this is one instant that I would totally be for having a death penalty in our law system. Someone needs to protect our children.
P.S. I just wanted to add that it doesn't matter to me if they are gay or straight. That is their lifestyle and they will have to answer for it either way. What matters here is the children.

This is sickening. How can you use this as proof of anything but human sinfullness. These people should not be harming any children. They all should be prosecuted. I am a Christian too and although I do not approve of homosexuality as a life style I also disaprove far more of child molestation. The damage done to these children is irreparable. What kind of monsters are these people?

The FRI is a right-wing fundamentalist organization that has been repeatedly criticised for lack of scientific approach in their research, so first, consider the source.
Next, understand that child abuse is not about sexual orientation, it is about power. Heterosexual men abuse both boys and girls; this does not indicate their sexual preference, but their psychological need to hold power over an individual.
Almost all child abuse is performed by family members or close relatives. Studies show that in general the proportion of abusers correlates with sexual orientation - in other words, homosexual adults are no more or less likely to abuse than heterosexuals.
And as to god's view - you can't disagree with god if you are a believer, and you don't have to consider his opinion if you are atheist or agnostic, so your fundamental premise is flawed.

God is not wrong about homosexuality. The wrong one is human itself.
There's a qoute says " Every human born natural. It's their parents who design them into what they would be in the future."
"Born natural" mean knows nothing. We born without any knowlage isn't it? Who thaught us into living? Of course the people and the environment aroung us. People always had a tight grip on what they're experience when they're young. So if children grown up in such surrounding that have homosexuality and other ill social, what are they lead into. At this is God still at the wrong?

It would seeem to me that the problem is foster-parenting, not so much gays or straights. So there would have to be reform of the foster-parenting system--perhaps better screening and oversight. But I know what you want is just reform for gays, perhaps pushing all queers back into the closet.
The ones who are wrong are the ones who feel really brave about proclaiming their hatred and bigotry when they're hiding behind the skirt on poor Jesus' robe.

Those numbers sound like BS pulled out of thin air. I read the article and it referes to some anonymous study but doesn't provide an actual reference for it.
But even if they are true, it doesn't prove anything about homosexuality in general, nor is it even the least bit scientific, as it merely assumes that gay foster parents are proportional to the general population of gays, and further merely assumes that gays represent 2-4% of the adult population in the areas they studied.
