In the Book of Ezekiel:
“Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fullness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy. And they were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw good.” (16:49-50, KJV).
The Epistle of Jude in the New Testament echoes the Genesis narrative and recalls mainly the sexually immoral aspects of Sodom's sins: “…just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire
More scriptures speak about the Act of Sodomy as condemnation by all 3 Monotheistic religions and speaks of that act only for animal,s not man or woman to engage in.
How can anyone say GOD commands people to engage in this kind of act, when it's in the Bible as a abomination through out the scriptures?

No. I don't believe that at all. Remember that everyone interprets the bible differently. No one will think the same about the scriptures. People will use scriptures or a certain scripture to find their way of thinking and teach that. That being said, I am left-handed. I had a Sunday School teacher try to teach me how to use my right hand to write and I couldn't do it. She said I needed to be taught to use my right hand. She had upset me and I told my Mother. My Mother read that Sunday School teacher the riot act. She said we are meant to be different not the same. Yes my Mother is left-handed. It is not a sin be left-handed. Being gay is different. I have conflicting feelings about this myself. I know what God says about it but I feel like a person is born a certain way. How do you explain why a person is born with two different color of eyes for example? Are they born bad? No church is perfect. The church is just a building it is the people that make a church. People are not perfect by any means.

Yeah, that sounds just. ETERNAL TORTURE for having anal sex.
Why would you worship such an evil being?
