Darth Budd said:i went to a catholic high school taking mandatory religion classes every day while attending mandatory mass and prayer services. i have studied each sacrament, the old and new testaments, and modern catholicism and moral obligations in depth.
jesus does not equal god to them. he is part of the holy trinity made of god the father (creator), god the son (redeemer), and god the spirit (sanctifier). i was taught (by an actual priest) that god creates each person individually, from scratch. I once asked him what he meant by that when we have direct physical evidence of the sperm and eggs combining to create whole chromosomes then that single cell multiplying and dividing etc. and he just insisted that each person was made from scratch by god and that sex was just a way of letting god know to get going.
there is a few problems i have with that answer.
1. god created each person from scratch, and since there is no evidence that being raised a certain way makes you gay, then it is most likely biological. meaning that god created his own abomination.
2. why have sex to let god know that you are ready for a baby? why not just pray? also, if you use a condom you are still having sex, so wouldn't god know anyway?
3. god could make babies instantly so why does it take nine months?
in case you are wondering i did actually ask him those and instead of even trying to answer me he gave me a four hour Saturday detention and the number of a religious counselor so i could discuss my "problems" with him. whats ironic is that i had biology next period and since cal. state law requires we be taught a certain curriculum i spent the next hour learning about anthropology, which to this day remains an area of great interest to me, and one of the choices that i am considering majoring in
That part sounds bogus, you need to talk to this guy.
1) Gays won't "abominate" the Christian faith rather than be opposed to it.
2) God knows all so why would you need to tell God you want a baby if your heart is already set on it? (You should probably ask a Pastor or someone for THIS answer)
3) Would you really see a woman become pregnant right after you have sex with her, then have her pop the baby out? God plans everything.
