[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP not sure if I understood your question. What do you mean with divine intervention? Can you give an example? [/quote]

+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.[/quote]

It's truly hard to fathom an all-loving God who condemns as a sin the love of two people for one another.  Even if there isn't a god, murder would be wrong because of the harm you are doing to someone else.  Stealing would be wrong for same reason. Cheating on your spouse same, because of the hurt you are doing to another. Lying that hurts others - wrong. Greed that means others are affected by having less, or the earth is harmed because of the wasteful consumption - wrong.  Ignoring the plight of the poor and sick -- wrong.

2 men or 2 women in a loving, mutually satisfying relationship? What actual harm does that do except the perceived idea that God doesn't like it? Name the harm you see without staying simply "it's a sin according to God."  Who is harmed? What visible harm is there?  Not buying it. Don't care what a few lines written by human beings 2000+ years ago say.

You will never, ever be able to convince me that the loving marriages of my friends and family members are "sinful" because they are 2 men or 2 women paired up instead of one man and one woman. Never. Ever.  Love is love.  And if God isn't love, then I'm not sure I want to have much to do with God.

Well, according to Genesis God wasn't much into vegetarianism either, he didn't go for barley on the altar but Abel's lamb rib roast smelled damn good. And he also plays bets on people's loyalty--what was up with that Job business anyway?[/quote]
