Sexual Orientation has nothing to do with faith in God. Just because someone is gay does not mean they are not loved by Christ. Nor does it mean they are damned. As Christians, we are told to love God with all our heart, to love others and to seek the truth and not be deceived. The rest will follow. You are loved!

God created a male body and a female body with all the body parts assigned to do a specific function. Procreation being an important one. Now if you treat human body as a temple of God, you wouldn't like to experiment with the body in a disgusting manner that homos do. Why would you go up the sh*t street unless you are a pervert??? If you do not like the right way of doing things then at least stay away from sex than to pollute your body and mind....

Nothing. There is only one being that can judge others. No one else has the right to, especially since we don't know what God's position on sexual orientation really is.

Nothing unusual.
God creates us all with urges for forbidden things, and we all have the responsibility to fight those urges.
Some people get angry a lot. Some people have a desire to steal. Some people have an urge to lie. Some people are naturally lazy. Some people are homosexual. These are all tests.
If God didn't think you could overcome it, He wouldn't have given that particular trait to you. Having to deal with something difficult like a forbidden sexual orientation means that God thinks very highly of you and your inner strength.

Faith has everything to your sexual orientation...it is our obedience to Gods laws and his perfect plans for our life.
It does not mean God will stop loving you if you are living outside his will and laws but be prepare to pay for the consequences of your disobedience.

i'm no pope fan anymore yet this guy seems more advantageous obnoxious and asinine than JP II become. The mild antagonistic to Muslims from Benedict become like between the first significant issues he had to assert on a international scale and it got here at a time at the same time as even mainstream non-non secular human beings were getting more advantageous conscious of the way Muslims are disparaged plenty. i'm a former Catholic myself, I bear in mind how weird and wonderful it become at the same time as JP-I dropped useless after like a month. i become only a baby yet we were nevertheless satisfied at the same time as JPII got here alongside, the first non-Italian pope considering that always! it form of sounds like Benedict is certain and determined to push Catholicism even more advantageous decrease back into the darkish a lengthy time period and to lose even more advantageous Western followers than he has already lost.

Nothing. But what we do with our sexual orientation has everything to do with obeying God.

Which faith are you talking about? Which god are you referring too? Different beliefs have different reasons -- for example --
BUDDHISM ON HOMOSEXUALITY:
The Dalai Lama is the leader of the Tibetan people and is revered by millions of Buddhists worldwide. At a press conference he commented: "From a Buddhist point of view [lesbian and gay sex]...is generally considered sexual misconduct". This belief is not based on the partners being of the same gender. In his book "Beyond Dogma," he has written that "homosexuality, whether it is between men or between women, is not improper in itself. What is improper is the use of organs already defined as inappropriate for sexual contact." Buddhism prohibits oral, manual and anal sex for everyone - both homosexuals and heterosexuals.
HINDUISM ON HOMOSEXUALITY:
Homosexuality is also a complex matter in Hinduism because of the many types of religious life. In general, "twice-born" Hindus are prohibited from homosexual acts (maithunam pumsi), such as in Manusmrti 11:174, which mentions both men and women.
ISLAM 'MUSLIMS' ON HOMOSEXUALITY:
In Islam, homosexuals (called qaum Lut, the "people of Lot") are condemned in the story of Lot's people in the Qur'an (15:73; 26:165) and in the last address of the Prophet Muhammad.
ORTHODOX JUDAISM ON HOMOSEXUALITY:
They often view it as abnormal, unnatural, and condemned by God. They view their Scriptures as forbidding all homosexual behavior as a grievous sin, irrespective of the nature of the relationship of the participants.
HOLY BIBLE ON HOMOSEXUALITY: NEW TESTAMENT:
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion. (Romans 1:25-27)
The same with all these religions will tell you - this applies to any person interested in becomming a follower or memeber of their faith/beliefs etc. As a member these views will apply to each faith/religion above -mentioned.

Religion says that homosexuality is wrong. And it is wrong, its not the normal way of life. Its suppose to be Man and Women not man and man or women and women. That is just not how it is. If it were okay for everyone to be like that society would fall apart. No one would be having children and in about 100 years everyone would be dead and no one would exist. Its going against religion.

Faith (the word) is rooted in trust? Does one trust God?
