Ok ENN! So with all these "Extra" people God "Created", he should just kill off with some "natural" disaster?

God has known everything in all eternity. It is us humans that keep screwing things up with our hatred, selfishness, perversions, greed, deceitfulness, etc. God said "Be fruitful and multiply" in order to preserve and advance the continuation of the human race. If the human race was not so selfish and greedy we would be able to provide for EVERYONE on Earth and what we couldn't God would provide.
As for gays, there are reasons why God made homosexual activity an abomination to Him. First, as mentioned by others, the whole purpose of sexual activity is procreation and as such the continuation of the species. Homosexual activity denies the ability to procreate and therefore lessens the ability to continue the species. How can you combine gay and fruitful together? It's ludicrious and untrue.
Second, sexual activity is meant to consecrate the union and love of a man and a woman in marriage and as a result glorify God. Homosexuality is based solely on answering the animalistic desire to feel good. Of course, the liberal society we live in today wants to convince us that we are the same as any animal and therefore have no restraint against answering the animal lust and perversion within us. What they don't take into account, though, is the healing power of Jesus Christ.
Third, the human body was not designed for homosexual activity and there is actually quite extensive damage done to a person who engages in such perversions. Since we are all created in the image of God, should we really abuse ourselves in such manner as this.
Finally, to take to task the common response by the gay pride sector who believes Christians are "homophobics", I would request them consult a dictionary. I am neither scared of nor intimidated by their activity. They may do as they wish behind close doors but they MAY NOT force themselves into the lives of my family, especially the children. I choose to take the stand for decency, respect and good moral behavior.

When he told Adam and Eve this; this was their plan from God. Since they disobeyed this fulfillment from God. God had to punish them because of sin. That's why Jesus came down and died upon the cross. God already knew that Adam and Eve would be tempted in the Garden of Eden by Satan; the serpent. He knew that Noah would obey and be faithful when the flood happened that's why he didn't come down the second time. Now, this is the third time; when he comes down; he will be very mad; he will destroy the earth and those who are wicked. He'll take only those who are saved and has Jesus in their heart to heaven.

Nah... he was right.
It's just that preachers took it a bit too litterally, it was a convenient way to gain new followers. Except priests aren't usually qualified in urban planning.
I don't think God meant: "Go and invade the planet like a plague, replicating to no end, draining your resources until there isn't a single breath of oxigen left..."

old testament was writing by the laws at that time, later on in the new testament when Jesus came he spoke to love everyone.......as fair as being fruitful and multiply....how many people are actually married before they have kids or have sex......most people that are moms and dads now a days have kids by accident or get married to someone only because there pregnant or got someone pregnant.....if they obeyed gods orders there wouldn't be over population........a great movie series to watch on scientific proof of god is on www.youtube.com.............. just search under (does god exist-proof god exist) its a 6 part series and really great.....hope this helps....

I dont recall reading that passage. I do know the Bible says: LET HE WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE. and for the gay/"fruitful" comment...that doesnt even make sense...they cant procreate! my guess is that if you want to make comments on religion...study it first. Even if you dont believe it...but you cant make comment like you know everything until you have at least some knowledge about it.

Ummm, wait. How are gay people 'fruitful'?? It's not like they can have kids together or anything!
And who are you to think you know what God's plan is?

Oh, I think He did.
"Natural disasters" have wiped out entire populations in less than a few hours consistently over the history of the earth (Notice the lack of dinosaurs 'overpopulating' the earth...)
Historical records have thousands of instances of cities and peoples being wiped out by earthquakes, fires, tornadoes, thunder and lightening storms, hurricanes, tsunamis, etc.
What are you worried about? Why is everyone freaking out? It's not our planet to begin with. It's GOD's planet, y'all. We believe man can destroy the earth by our 'global warming'. Man can't possibly destroy the planet. God will wipe out the destroyers before they get anywhere. Luckily He gives us a chance to repent before He takes us out.
Instead of freaking out about man destroying the planet, maybe the time is now to repent and let Jesus do His job as the Savior of the world...

Gay people connot be fruitful, Einstein. Unless they have a relationship outside of their partnership.

You are using a human argument because you have no spiritual eye.
God did not only think ahead, he is already there.
