1. it is easy for someone who is not in that situation to say "believe in god" and the problem's gonna be solved. I am lesbian, and I don't intend to live alone because of a book, and I CAN'T change my sexuality, men are not interesting for me, even though I tried to change!
2. and that is the actual question:
Why, do you think "god" would call homosexuality "unnatural" as "he" does in the bible? Doesn't the word "natural" come from "nature"? Then, look at all the diversity in nature! There ARE lesbians and gay animals in nature, etc etc!!! Natural comes from Nature, and to say it's not "natural" just isn't right, with all my respect for your beliefs, like I said for you heterosexuals it's easy...

I am a heterosexual christian and I agree that god would not want you to be alone or never experience love. Let go of the guilt and enjoy your life. God , I feel would want you to and to all the "Christians " on this sight who are so full of hate towards the homosexual lifestyle need only to worry about themselves and stop judging others as it also states in the bible. Be comfortable in your own skin, be who you are and be proud. Love is a wonderful thing gay or straight nobody should miss the opportunity to feel this wonder gift that god gave to ALL of us. Good luck dear and please remember not all of us feel the same. I wish you a life time of happiness and joy.

Too many like to ignore what nature really holds. It is sunshine, pretty flowers, soft fluffy clouds and cute babies. It is also blizzards, earthquakes, violent death, blood, gore and (excuse my language) sh!t.
The bible was put together by men. The time period had some closed minded ideas that were considered good and right at the time.
Some people simply do not know half of what they claim too. It is just better to study more and use their ignorance against them and then ignore them.

but from the fall of man nature was also changed. animals started eating each other and acting truly wild which is not how they were supposed to be. God implanted fear of man in them, because without that mankind would've been destroyed by them a long time ago. ever since the fall the world and nature decays, but not truly because God has a special providence over everything.
it says in romans that homosexuality is a sin. its unnatural because God did intend for people to be with the opposite sex. The more people continue to be in their sins the more they become evil as man is depraved in nature from the fall. when they rebel against God by sin, he turns them over to themselves to do that which is not convinient. thats why now, wicked people have all kinds of ways to have evil sex. they have unnatural sex with animals in bestiality, the gay men practice sodomy and use dildos and other evil inventive ways to destroy themselves, and of course homosexuality where people started having sex with the same sex burned in their own lusts. Homosexuality is a sin, because it is not natural and it comes from evil. You cannot be a christian and gay at the same time.
Jesus died so we can be redeemed of the fall of man and be turned over to God once again as is natural. We become new creatures when we ask forgiveness of our sins and have them washed with the blood of Jesus Christ, repent and walk in grace. With the blood of Jesus it washes away everything, and if you have faith it washes away everything and can do anything and get rid of all kinds of lusts such as murder, sex addictions, and including lusts for the same sex. If you continue to seek God and read the bible and just press on and have faith in the Living God who is the master of nature, you will be free of the sin of homosexuality and other sins, and be whole and even other benefits such as not getting sick and other miracles.
I tried to answer the question the best i could with no biased.

If sex is natural, which I believe it is as we do indeed have sex drives, then homosexuality is natural as well. Don't fall for the condemning religions. If you want to believe in God, do so, but it doesn't have to be a God who would condemn you. The Bible is not exactly a book of nature and it was not written by God.

He does not. The word "homosexuality" did not exist at the time the middle eastern tales and legends you are referring to were written. It is only recent interpretations that have become homophobic. I don't see why your life style should be influenced by an old book of tales and legend improperly translated over and over.
Just live like you want. We have only one life you know.
Love.

If I am a murderer is it OK for me to go on killing?, You can do what ever the f..k you like, but in the end of times you will receive you consequence. Abstain from what is going to send you hell. You are better off not believing in GOD and waste your life with out any remorse about what GOD has to do with you and your decisions. Deep in your heart you know what you have to do, don't be stupid.

Well, the bible is written by moneygrabbers who want to control the world by exploiting the words of a wise man like jesus was.
I doubt jesus added a chapter on homosexuality! So who wrote that? Some guy who knew where to go to eat for free, a priest or some similar creep. Just make up a lot of rules and make people paranoid about EVERYTHING under the sun, and they will be sorry to be alive and give money to the church.
there you go.

God calls homosexuality an abomination.
However...
Homosexuality is no worse a sin than lying, cheating, murder, rape, stealing, etc.
And you can use your God-given free will to do what you want with your life, but be prepared to suffer the consequences of your own decisions.
God loves you. He hates sin.

Stop giving yourself excuses that homosexuality is right.
Don't let the enemy has a foothold on you. The devil's trying to make you think that it's not a sin and that you can't change. But you CAN.
There are those who like to say that the Bible does not condemn homosexuality. Various verses are cited (out of context) and the verses that people use to show that homosexuality is wrong are explained away. The world wants to change God's words and meanings into something more suitable to its sinful desires. Nevertheless, the truth stands: The Bible condemns homosexuality as a sin. Let's look at what it says.
Lev. 18:22, "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination."
Lev. 20:13, "If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their bloodguiltness is upon them"
1 Cor. 6:9-10, "Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God."
Rom. 1:26-28, "For this reason God gave them over to degrading passions; for their women exchanged the natural function for that which is unnatural, 27and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire toward one another, men with men committing indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error. 28And just as they did not see fit to acknowledge God any longer, God gave them over to a depraved mind, to do those things which are not proper."
Homosexuality is clearly condemned by the Bible. It goes against the created order of God. He created Adam and then made a woman. This is what God has ordained and it is what is right. Unlike other sins, homosexuality has a severe judgment administered by God Himself. This judgment is simple: They are given over to their passions. That means that their hearts are allowed to be hardened by their sins (Romans 1:18ff). As a result, they can no longer see the error of what they are doing. Without an awareness of their sinfulness, there will be no repentance and trusting in Jesus. Without Jesus, they will have no forgiveness. Without forgiveness, there is no salvation.

Homophobic men hate you as a lesbian because they know they can not manipulate you with their masculine charms. They can not control you with their male sensuality. Your 'lesbian-ness' emasculates hetero men because your homosexuality leaves them out in the cold.
Homophobic women hate you as a lesbian because they are scared that if you try to seduce them that they'll actually enjoy the experience and start to question their own sexuality.
