If God had an issue with homosexuality, where is divine intervention?

[Anonymous]

And don't tell me AIDS/HIV is divine intervention, that effects every group out there. God doesn't care, in fact I'm of the belief, that he has more important things to worry about.

He doesn't. Only people who misinterpret his word have a problem. The issue with homosexuality is not the word of God, but the word of a very human institution.

God is not real. He is a fictional character.

So, if you believe that, why would you be reading and responding to a thread in the Religion forum?

I don't believe in a Judeo-Christian God either. If anything, I'm Buddhist. Do I not have the right to post here either?

I didn't say that the PP had no right to post here, I asked why they did. In your case, you don't believe in a Judeo-Christian God, but you follow a religion and that religion does have gods, if not a single God. However, whether you believe in a God or gods, you do follow a religion and this Forum is for the discussion of religions.

Since religion is about unwavering Faith in a religious system and a Deity or deities, I'm not sure that the PP's statement above will be agreed to by the majority of the audience. It's like trying to convince birds that they shouldn't fly.

God doesn't have an issue with homosexuality.

People do. Bigoted people.

God doesn't have an issue with homosexuality he has an issue with gay sex just like he has an issue with ANY sex outside of marriage

Yet more stupid and theologically ignorant questions...

You are free to commit any kind of sin you want. God gave you the power of choice. It does not mean He's not against sin if he doesn't strike you down with lightning when you commit it.

God indeed "cares" about your sins, as you will find out to your probable eternal discomfiture after you die.

Yet another bigoted response based on a deliberate misinterpretation of the responses so far.

Obviously, we’re taking about what constitutes a “sin.” And Jesus didn’t say himosexuality is a sin. Paul did, but Paul is not Jesus.

Himosexuality, I like that!

OP not sure if I understood your question. What do you mean with divine intervention? Can you give an example?

God loves everyone the same.

+1 - OP, please elaborate on your question. What do you mean by an "issue" with homosexuality?

God through the Bible is clear that homosexual sex is a sin, but I do not believe that He condemns gay people who may have these feelings. He is waiting for all of us to turn from our sins and back to Him.
