I never really read the bible, but i never understood this. If god made you then why would he send you to hell when thats the way you were born. I've heard its the work of the devil. How could god let the devil make you a homosexual right out of the womb when your so defenceless. I would love to hear a LOGICAL explanation for this.

Your question really hits the nail on the head not just answering the gay "Choice" or "Born that way" argument but also questions if god exists at all. If god were good and all-powerful and all-knowing, then how would he/she not be aware that a baby being born will be gay. The bible states that god knows you from before you are born, so obviously god knows that you are gay too. If god believes homosexuality is wrong, god wouldnt allow gays to be born. But god DOES allow gays to be born. IF you believe in that, god DOES create gays. If god creates an imperfect child then god is NOT perfect. Since the bible states that god IS perfect, then that is proof there is no god.

That is only people's stereotypical notion. That's not true. I think straight people also might go to hell. Since there is no difference between gay and non gay people at all. Only sexual orientations. But the rest even could be worse for non-gay people.
1 John 4 : 16 says ''God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God and God in him.''

People have no business announcing who is, or is not going to hell. First, they don't know, and second, they are in no position to judge another person. Maybe they, are going to hell.
As far as your assertion that God made them that way, that is nonsense, and you know it. God didn't make anyone the way they are. We all have free will. If I choose to steal, can I say that it isn't my fault? God made me that way.
Taking your augment further, are any of us responsible for any of our actions? Are we all programmed?
If we were in fact, all pre-programmed, then nobody would be guilty of anything. Charlie Manson, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, they are all just doing what they are supposed to do. Do you agree with that scenario?
We are all responsible for our own actions. What things that I have done wrong, I have to take responsibility. I can't blame anyone else, least of all, God.

these people don't know what they are talking about. the bible says that humans should not be judging others, yet they always seem to come on this site and bash gays.
God seems to have a strange plan for us all, and he made some of us gay and some of us transsexuals for a reason..
God loves us all and he won't punish any of us for loving other people (regardless of gender)

Because, my Dear One, too many people are afraid of God and afraid of things and people they don't understand. They fear retribution and rather than opening up their hearts to their brothers and sisters, its much easier to despise and to hate them. How much more loving this world would be if many more Christians would (as jesus asked them to) love their neighbors as themselves; or to judge not lest they be judged. Too often they override Jesus (who said NOTHING to condemn homosexuality) and go right on to Paul who did. I'd rather treat my neighbor as I'd like to be treated and I'll be kind to them. Bless you, Dearest.

Because they are afraid of what they do not understand and they fear anything that threatens their narrow minded beliefs.

We all start the same, no special molds, we than live life choosing our destination and life styles. It if refered to a free will and we are then judged on our way of living! Really does anyone really think that these individuals that prefer having sex with animals came out of their mother wanting to breast feed off the nearest mutt?? It was their life and choice!
