The June 13 article about a parade in which persons in the gay and lesbian lifestyles celebrate their sexuality in downtown Des Moines quoted a homosexual participant as saying, "No matter what anyone says, God made me this way. And God does not make junk."
I completely agree that God does not make junk. According to the Bible, homosexuals are deeply loved by God. However, his statement that God made him this way (homosexual) is the part that the Bible does not agree with.
The Bible says that homosexuality is a behavior and that God can help those involved to see themselves and relate to others in ways that are biblically healthy.
God loves homosexuals no matter what, but he doesn't love the pain and hurt that comes with calling homosexuality inborn and believing you have no choice in your thoughts, feelings and actions.
