The simple answer is that God, at least as interpreted and set forth in the Christian Bible, is wrong on this issue.
Well the intriguing thing to me, as a Christian, is that Christ never addressed homosexuality. It seems to be that if this was extremely important to God he would have spoke about it. He spent plenty of time on love, marriage, friendship, family, dealing with authority. He also sharply rebuked many of the religious authorities of his days. Indeed, Christ’s harshest words were not for non-believers but for for the religious.
The homosexuality issue is a big one I’ve been wrestling with God over. I’m hetero myself, but I’m referring to the oft repeated doctrine that homosexuality is evil, sinful, etc. and the way it’s been interpreted through the years.
