Homosexuality is Compatible with Christian Doctrine and God's Law

Misinformation & Scientific Corrections:Droughts and soil depletion, as reasons for why crops fail, has nothing to do with biological evolution! Biological evolution cannot explain earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic erruptions, hurricanes, etc. Biological evolution cannot address why asteroids hit the earth. Biological evolution cannot adjudicate the moral quandary regarding the senario of a baby born with leukemia.. It is what the American Protestant theologian, John Hick, calls "Dis-teleological Suffering". In other words, suffering for no-good-reason. Is there a reason why we suffer for no good reason? "Why do bad things happen to good people?"The ideas that you have suggested to answer these kinds of questions are not proper scientific ideas, nor are they proper theological ideas either.And because of this you didn't exactly answer anything regarding Natural Evil. Worse, you even agreed with everything that I said as far as me asking if you really believed sin is responsible for these natural phenomena.. You even went as far as to suggest the Devil and demons! Whoa! You really believe sin is responsible for all of the bad things in the world and only good things come from God! I can almost rest my case based on this. And then you wrongly use a scientific concept (biological evolution) to fill in the theological gaps. This is madness! It's not okay. I don't think it's crazy to be transsexual, I think it's crazy to believe these religious ideas and not understand science and use it wrongly. Worse, again, you are then indirectly blaming yourself and "human sin" for your circumstances! It's not healthy.You asked God to change you but He didn't. You would rather believe that God has mysterious reasons, blame humanity and "sin" rather then consider a more likely option: God might not exist.My Overview:1) Cultural ContrastsMy guess is that you are culturally and ethnically Filipino (from the Philippines).The Philippines is one of the most religious countries on the planet, of which over 90% of the populace in Christian, and 80% of all Christians in the Philippines are Catholic. Less than .01% of the population considers the self non-religious.As where, in the United States, folks here are very religious as well, however, nearing 20% of the populace no longer identifies with a religious sect or consider themselves non-religious.Further, it is considered an odd rarity to meet a orthodox-traditional Christian person in the United States who is also either homosexual or transsexual. Most are liberal and reject religion.I'm not saying they do not exist, cuz they do, I have several close friends and family members who are homosexual and struggle with trying to square this with an innate impulse to also be religious. In the United States you will now find whole other groups and churches (communities) comprised of homo and transsexual people who also want to satisfy a need to still be religious. For example, the Gay Christian Network (GCN) is a prime example of this. When asked why these folks started their own Christian community some of the answers given were because they couldn't see rejecting their faith even though they weren't accepted by the more orthodox groups of their faith. This suggests that questioning authenticity of their faith, asking if their religion was true or real, was more difficult than wrestling with their sexuality or gender issues.This fascinates me because it means that a great many homosexual and transsexual people's impulse to be religious supersedes and trumps their psychological needs and problems, even when the social construct of the religious group still rejects who they are as a person. So the rejected will form their own Christian groups so they can still be gay or deal with being a transsexual but keep their religious beliefs intact.2) The BrainIt turns out that a percentage of the human population might have a predisposition to be religious; no matter what -- are "hard-wired" to be religious. Given the right environmental conditions and social conditioning, people with this predisposition will always be religious. There are evolutionary reasons for this impulse but many neuro-anatomist and neuro-scientist hypothesize that humans are out growing the need for this.I think many of the gay and transsexual people here in the united states who have a need to be religious might also have the neuro-anatomy and predisposition to be religious even though their sexuality might not be idealistically compatible with their religious beliefs.For you it would be hard to know because everyone in the Philippines is religious, so there would be no way to know if you were being religious for purely cultural reasons or because you are now hard-wired to be religious.
