God is the one who created the people, including homosexuals

He's not the one who disagrees with their marriages, it's the "christians". I don't see the reason why they should'nt get the same legal benefits of marriage as heterosexuals, as the USA has religioua freedom and no church should dictate others their view of the world. Note that I said the church, not the religion, since, like I said, God created them how they are and no one should try to repair his creations.

I find this extremely offensive, me being Christian myself I do support them and I love the LGBTQIA community so much, I've had my fair share of girlfriends in my time, I'm currently dating this amazing girl, we have a lot of plans together, INCLUDING adoption if we get to that point. Thanks for assuming, jacka**. And just a reality check, God literally says in the bible that marriage should be between a man and a woman in the temple and no one can enter the celestial kingdom without it. My opinion, we should be free to do what we want, and marriage shouldn't be just to get somewhere high, it should be for love. Don't assume all Christians are super homophobic and hate all this, because most of them are actually not homo.

 @9YLYFPR from Ohio  disagreed…2yrs2Y

They put quotation marks when they said "Christain." They are aware not all Christians are homophobic.

 @B3K8BR9 from North Carolina  commented…1yr1Y

I agree, because so many people just blame everything on Christians, and it drives me nuts. I am also a strong supporter of the LGBTQIA+ community. Hell, my whole church is a branch off of the United Methodist church, and one of our core beliefs is that we accept everyone, no matter if they're LGBTQIA+, ethnic backgrounds, we accept them. So that comment is blatantly false and ludicrous.

 @B8Q8GPC from Wyoming  disagreed…7mos7MO

Hey bro, first off, I love you and appreciate you sharing your heart. But let me ask, how do you define being a Christian? Do you read the Bible regularly? The Bible is pretty clear that marriage is between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6). It’s not just about feelings or culture; it’s about God’s design from the very beginning. So, while I totally agree that love is important, it’s also about following what God has revealed in His Word. That’s what being a Christian is all about, living according to God’s truth, not just our preferences.

Let’s keep loving each other and encouraging one another to grow closer to God.

God created a perfect world. It was the Lucifer who created the sin. God is perfect. He cannot stand to be with sin, and that is why we do not walk side-by-side today.

 @9V94J34 from New York  disagreed…2yrs2Y

If God created a perfect world, then how come Lucifer exists? Wouldn't God just not create Lucifer? And if God did create Lucifer, then how come God, who is perfect and omniscient, couldn't foresee Lucifer's fall into sin? Your argument is fundamentally unstable.

God's creation of Lucifer and the existence of evil doesn't negate His perfection or omniscience—it actually demonstrates the depth of free will. If God had created only beings who could never choose anything but good, then free will wouldn’t exist. Lucifer’s fall wasn’t because God couldn't foresee it; rather, it was because God allowed Lucifer to exercise his free will. Think about it: If God prevented the potential for disobedience, then we’d all just be robots, incapable of love or devotion, which requires the possibility of rejection.

Also, consider this: Lucifer was created as one of the most beautiful and powerful angels, but he choseRead more

Your avoiding the point here. Why did God create free will if he wanted everyone to follow his laws? He can't have free will and have everyone follow his laws. The Bible is full of contradictions and this is one of them.

I've roughly show the problem with this with this flowchart. (Hopefully you can see it.)

He gave us freewill as a gift to His perfect creation. And it was perfect until Adam and Eve blatantly disobeyed God. And if you want to know why He would give us freewill if He know we were going to sin, it was to glorify Him.

 @B3MMD7SRepublican from Pennsylvania  commented…1yr1Y

God didn't want to. Lucifer was one of God's most beautiful angels. He got jealous of the other angels and had pride in himself. He gathered other angels and tried to rebel. Whenever Satan tempted Eve with the fruit, sin entered the world. In the Bible God said he regretted making humans.

  @ChristianGuidedConstitution from Florida  disagreed…2mos2MO

“It was the Lucifer who created the sin.”

So close to the truth! It wasn't Lucifer who did but PEOPLE. God gave us freewill and we decided to sin. All Lucifer did was strengthen that sin. If you also want to get technical, God commanded Adam to protect and tend to the garden. However, Lucifer was able to get in. That would mean Adam failed his objective commanded by God.

 @9T7WGYKRepublican from Georgia  commented…2yrs2Y

God does not create anybody to be “homosexual” your belief is that people are born to be gay and that is simply not true.

  @Renaldo-MoonGreen from Pennsylvania  commented…2yrs2Y

If we weren't born to be gay then why are we unable to just be straight huh?

 @MAGA_Deplorable from Washington  commented…2yrs2Y

Because unfortunately you have a s-xual perversion. But just because you are tempted to sin doesn't mean you have to give in. If you resisted temptation and earnestly asked God to help you, you would improve.

  @Renaldo-MoonGreen  from Pennsylvania  commented…2yrs2Y

Huh. Interesting.

So when I was figuring out my sexuality I didn't want to be a homosexual and truly wanted to be straight. Why did I receive no help then?

This proves that sin is just an excuse to control other peoples lives. Its my life not yours stay out of it and let **** have the same rights of heteros.

 @MAGA_Deplorable from Washington  disagreed…2yrs2Y

Um ... I don't care how you figured out who you're attracted to. But it's wrong.

 @B8Q8GPC  from Wyoming  disagreed…7mos7MO

Hey everyone, I just want to say this with love and truth from the Bible.

We all face temptation and sin—Romans 3:23 reminds us that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” But God offers forgiveness and strength to overcome through Jesus (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). Yes, the Bible teaches that sexual relations are meant for a man and a woman in marriage (Matthew 19:4-6), and that sin is serious. But God’s grace is greater, and He helps those who turn to Him. Let’s remember to speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) and encourage one another, not condemn. Jesus calls us all to love and to show kindness while pointing each other to God’s hope.

Thanks for listening! Would love to discuss more if anyone wants.

 @B3MMD7SRepublican from Pennsylvania  commented…1yr1Y

God DOES not approve of the same gender marriages but he still loves the people. It's the act of the sin not the people. He loves everybody including people of the LGBTQ. Jesus loves you.

 @B5752SN from North Carolina  disagreed…1yr1Y

i actually friCKING HATE YOU BRO! God DID NOT MAKE ADAM AND ADAM OR EVE AND EVE GOOFY! HE MADE ADAM AND EVE!

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
