Actually, God created Adam and Lillith. Lillith was an unpleasant woman because whenever Adam slept with her, she gave birth to demons. Adam eventually chased Lillith away because he wanted to be on top during sex, and she refused. So then God made Adam another woman out of flesh and blood and bones, but this process disgusted Adam, and he rejected this model of female. So God waited until Adam was asleep, and stole a rib from Adam and used that to create Eve. And that made Adam happy.
Genesis 2:23 aludes to this story: "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh”. Notice the phrase "at last"? Why would he have said that if Eve was God's first try?
Although there are other variations in Judaic mythology. Some ancient Jews believed that Man used to have a tail, and Eve was created from Adam's now removed Tail (and hence, the reason humans have tailbones). Another Judaic myth supposes that Adam and Eve used to be back to back, with God separating them, but that almost certainly comes from a well known Greek myth.
The discrepency is caused by the variations on the creation myths of the Jews. What we know of as Genesis owes much to the Sumerian myth of creation, where the first Woman is made from the rib of the first man. Ninti, her name, was literally "lady of the rib", and Sumerian mythology predates Judaism by thousands of years. The final version of Genesis which has persisted to this day was probably written around 300 B.C, a time when most of what Judaism had copied from other religions had been forgotten as being of other origin.
That is the proper, scientific explaination on this silly little story. Now if you are going to try and use it as a lever to condon hatred and prejudice, I can only hope that you will one day burn in hell for being such a base bigot. It's a shame that people like you vote.

I like your answer howfineis69. As for the original question, God created Adam and Eve and Steve and Ellen, too. Do you really think that God didn't create homosexuals? Think about it, did they just magically appear out of nowhere? Those preferences exist because they are a part of human nature and who are we to judge what God (or the Goddess, for those who believe in Her) has created in His/Her wisdom.

A true philosopher questions everything and often finds it wanting. There is no real evidence that any gods exist, and even less that Adam & Eve did. Odin created Ask & Embla in Norse myths. That is just as real as Adam & Eve...or just as unreal. is your question about gays? They got here by the same processes as straights. Evolution is responsible for all creatures, not silly gods.

The Book of Genesis in the Bible asserts that in the beginning God created everything. Later God was unhappy with some of the people that resulted from his creating, so he drowned them in a flood. Then God had second thoughts about killing people, and promised not to do it again. So on occasion God's mind does change.
In the Christian New Testament, it says, "Judge not, lest ye be judged." ("Ye" is a 400 year old word for "you".)
Let God deal with Steve. You and I have enough problems of our own to deal with.
