WHY THE CHRISTIAN GOD IS SO HOMOPHOBIC
Although written with a comical tone, I am damned serious about everything I say. Don’t like it? Your problem.
Foremost, I wish to apologize to any ladies here. There is nothing derogatory meant towards us males’ better half.
I know everyone has wondered about this. How many have ever thought of a reason?
Well … How about this? The Christian God is so homophobic because He is a homosexual Himself. Think about it. Even with the Trinity …
God the Father is always referred to as in the masculine gender. Well … duh. Cannot be a Father if you ain’t masculine.
Jesus the Son was a man. Duh …
Now with the Holy Spirit/Ghost … we get a little fuzzy. However, there are a few references to the Holy Spirit/Ghost also being masculine.
Now take a look at all the angels. Not one of them is feminine. I have NEVER seen any reference in the Bible to a feminine angel. Now some are some form of weird creature-like things; however, for the most, they are all male.
All those masculine beings and not one female. Think about it.
After God made Adam and Eve, then kicked them out of the Garden, and told them to be fruitful and multiply … and He watched. You know He did.
Talk about the ultimate voyeur … After God watched, I guarantee His first thought was, “Damn! I should have made at least one of those angels a female …
Thus, the Christian God is so damned homophobic because He is jealous of the fact that at least some human males can get some nookie. Additionally, He is so embarrassed that His omniscience never let Him know about the “all male” thing.

Men create gods in their own image.
Sapporo,
"Men create gods in their own image."
People create gods every day. They may not create religions around them but they tend to worship them to the point of doing whatever their chosen god tells them to do, even if it's wrong. Generally speaking people tend to regard their national leaders as gods. They will gladly go to distant lands and kill unknown people just because their god told them to do it. They want to please. And murderous gangsters tend to regard their crime boss as a god.
When someone does something just because another person tells them to do it and if the act is "evil" then that person has elevated the commander to godhood. They have abandoned their sense of right and wrong to do wrong because someone simply told them to do it.
I try to purge myself of all gods and to avoid situations where I create them.
God created man in his image!!! As for being Homophobic god is perfect, homosexuality is imperfect. can man procreate ? of course not just because the trinity is 3 persons doesn't at all claim that there homosexual. homosexuality is a life style and the bible from the old and the new testament shows very vividly that this lifestyle is wrong .god created the trinity so your completely incorrect in say that he didn't know. SO GOD knew beforehand that there would be some who practice the gay lifestyle. that`s why he uses saint Paul to teach on this subject.
If god cared about procreation, he could have played hide and go fuck himself instead of murdering essentially all life on the planet.
@ billy
*yawn* zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
@faith in God: As for being Homophobic god is perfect, homosexuality is imperfect
I guess the Catholic clergy didn't get that memo.
@Algebe
Oh, they GOT the memo, alright. They simply read it out of context. Whoopsie.
God is NOT the Great Penis in the Sky
Homosexuality is a biological state and is a found in herd animals. It has been seen in other primates.
I watch all those men do anything to appease other males at the expense of their own wives.
My personal crack pot hypothesis is that is probably essential to human civilization. I see it as whatever genes allow men to tolerate each other long enough to cooperate and build something gone into over drive.
Biology has other examples - Sickle cell anemia - the gene provides protection from malaria - but too 'concentrated' results in death.
Cycstic fibrosis is really nasty, but having only part of the gene results in immunity from typhoid.
Male homosexuality is inconvenient for the individuals, but under the above hypothesis would be beneficial to the group. Biology is being beneficial to the group, often at the expense of the individual.
Femala homosexuality is a defense against being beaten up by the inferior males. Inferior males hit - thereby terrorizing the female into being afraid to refuse sex.
Adult human sexual desires are complex, and whatever the evolutionary origins of homosexuality, remember it is part of who a person is, not all of who they are, but an essential part they can't discard. The important point is that gay people should have the same rights as straight people, and for too long religious bigotry has retarded human morality on this issue.
@FiG
Then why did god give man a rectum that easily accommodates a penis?
" homosexuality is imperfect. can man procreate ? "
>>>Yes Billy, gay men can procreate. That's to say being gay does not prevent a man procreating should he wish to.
-------------------------------
"of course not just because the trinity is 3 persons doesn't at all claim that there homosexual."
>>>Nurse, nurse! We need a translation into English here, stat.
------------------------------------
"homosexuality is a life style"
>>>Nope it's an innate attraction to members of your own gender. Your overall ignorance on a grand sweeping scale is impressive in it's own way Billy, but you're simply wrong here again.
--------------------------------------------------
"the bible from the old and the new testament shows very vividly that this lifestyle is wrong"
>>>It's not a lifestyle Billy, and who cares what that rotten festering steaming immoral shit-pile claims, since it is barbaric. immoral, ignorant and erroneous. Not unsurprisingly like some of it's adherents.
------------------------------------------
"god created the trinity so your (sic, ffs Billy) completely incorrect in say that he didn't know."
>>>God created itself and two other versions of itself, which is just one deity? Moronic flimflam.
--------------------------------------------
"SO GOD knew beforehand that there would be some who practice the gay lifestyle. "
>>>Being gay is not a lifestyle Billy.Why did you think your deity placed so many sensuous and pleasurable nerve endings in the anus Billy? You know that just as many women as men enjoy being sodomised right? this includes far more heterosexuals than homosexuals of course.
----------------------------------------------
"that`s why he uses saint Paul to teach on this subject."
What a bungling stupid bigoted deity then, to use a misogynistic homophobic bigot as a teacher. Your deity seems more and more pathetically inept the more you describe it Billy. Thank fuck it's a complete fiction.
He can't be perfect. He made a flawed creation. Let me guess, he was bored and needed something to hate to keep him occupied, meaning he made something he hates on purpose?
@FiG
I am guessing you really just posted this as flame bait, but eh I will play.
Your perfect god, that you guys give credit for all science advances, medical science is getting very close to allowing people born with the XY gene to have a working uterus implanted in them, and with hormone therapy, plus a bunch of considerations, can carry a baby to term. Some top fertility doctors say it is already possible, the tech is already there in theory, and only ethical concerns holds them back.
Additionally they are getting closer and closer to making synthetic uterus machines, (mainly to lower the age of premature baby viability,) but the tech to have a fertilized embryo carried all the way to 9month viability is not far off. The only thing science is still fairly far away from achieving is eggs, which still need to be gathered from those that have XX gene.
Lightly edited for clarity and small grammatical mistakes.
LogicForTW,
"Your perfect god, that you guys give credit for all science advances, medical science is getting very close to allowing people born with the XY gene to have a working uterus implanted in them, and with hormone therapy, plus a bunch of considerations, can carry a baby to term."
Well that should end the child custody battles.
@Diotrephes
Yep, actually quite a few fairly large implications of this, especially in the religious world that focuses so intently on male/female roles and hierarchy.
If medical science continues to advance at the rate it is, the very concepts of "gender" may fade away to a mere shadow of its former implications within a century. Especially for those that have the means to access such technology.
@FIGF: "...god is perfect..."
Really? Then defend this...
YOUR GOD IS NOT GREAT
In a different treatise, I wrote the following:
When I read the Old Testament and think critically about all that is written there, I see a deity that is:
• Jealous, and proud of it; he even says his name is JEALOUS;
• A petty, unjust, unforgiving, domineering tyrant;
• A brutal, cruel, vindictive, and bloodthirsty ethnic/religious cleanser;
• A misogynistic racist;
• An infanticidal, filicidal, homicidal maniac;
• A megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, malevolent psychopath;
• and ALL of the above is due to his suffering from an inferiority complex, schizophrenic delusion, and narcissistic personality disorder.
Arguably, your God is the most horrific monster to ever haunt humanity.
—synthesized by RMF Runyan, from Richard Dawkins’ The God Delusion
YOUR GOD’S NAME IS JEALOUS
The name of your God is Jealous (Exodus 34:14 “For thou shalt worship no other God: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God”). NOT Yahweh, nor Jehovah, nor Allah, nor any other name. Your God’s name is Jealous! He even says so himself. I have searched, and searched, and searched, and found nothing about the name of your God in your Bible, except what is hypothesized by you Christians.
The Tetragrammaton ([unicode characters] (YHWH, literally HWHY (but read right-to-left))) is only a descriptive statement: “I am who I am,” NOT a name (Exodus 3:14 – And God said unto Moses, “I am who I am…”). Any person alive can state the same: “I am who I am,” but my name is Richard. However, your God states: “I am who I am,” and my name is Jealous. Now PROVE me wrong!
MANY FACES OF YOUR GOD
I now list all the verses of the characteristics mentioned above. I only list the book, chapter number, and verse number, allowing you to look it up in your favorite Bible version.
AND, just so I ain’t got to listen to it:
What About Jesus? John 10:30 - I and the Father are one. ‘Nuff said.

It is the pagans in the church looking for a magic scape goat to blame all their problems on who are homophobic.
Spiritus is feminine & I have seen depictions of the the Holy Spirit that are feminine.
At least the annotated Quoran I am reading has Mohamend deriding the Christians because the concept of angels in that area of the country was feminine.
Acts 8:26-40English Standard Version (ESV)
Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch
Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, “Rise and go toward the south to the road that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” This is a desert place. And he rose and went. And there was an Ethiopian, a eunuch, a court official of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was in charge of all her treasure. He had come to Jerusalem to worship and was returning, seated in his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah, And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go over and join this chariot.” So Philip ran to him and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, “Do you understand what you are reading?” And he said, “How can I, unless someone guides me?” And he invited Philip to come up and sit with him Now the passage of the Scripture that he was reading was this:
“Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter and like a lamb before its shearer is silent, so he opens not his mouth. In his humiliation justice was denied him. Who can describe his generation? For his life is taken away from the earth.”
And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus. As they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.
Under Hebrew law, a eunuch would not have been allowed to worship at the temple. He would never have made it past the immersion baths and would have been sent to join the women and children. A eunuch would have been as close to trans-gender as medical science was possible of at the time.
What is God’s order to the Church? Run after him. As soon as the eunuch understands that he has the potential for full participation and welcome into the community he jumps for joy and takes the first chance he gets to be baptized.
The Bible says absolutely nothing about lesbianism. In all primates, it is a survival trait to avoid being beaten up by the inferior males. The inferior males hit. They know the females won’t voluntarily mate with them, so they terrorize them to make them too afraid to refuse. See patriarchal religions on inferiority of women. The Old Testament has about 1 sentence on gay men. Homosexuality didn’t even make the 10 commandments.
So I would say I don’t understand the confusion. The Church’s position on transgender and homosexuality is quite clear and joyfully, fully welcomes them into the Church under direct orders from God.
Mrs. Paul Owczarek,
"Acts 8:26-40 English Standard Version (ESV)"
Your Bible citation omits verse 37, which specifies that a person must believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God before getting baptize. https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Acts%208:37. Acts 8:37 (TPT) = "Philip replied, “If you believe with all your heart, I’ll baptize you.” The man answered, “I believe that Jesus is the Anointed One, the Son of God.” The revisionists omitted that verse in order to engage in child baptism because babies don't believe in anything.
Mark 16:16 (NKJV) = "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned."
"God isn't homophobic - He/she deliberately ORDERED the church to include the LGBT.... It is the pagans in the church looking for a magic scape goat to blame all their problems on who are homophobic."
That's because the god of the bible is a fictional deity, same as the rest, so yes you're right,, people invest the deities they create with their own prejudices. That's why the views in the bible of a "perfect deity" are such an accurate reflection of ignorant, bigoted, misogynistic bronze/iron age men.
Occam's razor applies here, and a far simpler explanation than a perfect omniscient omnipotent deity being such a poor designer and communicator is that it doesn't exist at all and is an entirely human created fiction.
@MPO RE: "It is the pagans in the church looking for a magic scape goat to blame all their problems on who are homophobic."
Say WHAT??? The PAGANS are homophobic? Seriously??? That is a fascinating statement. How in the world did you come to THAT conclusion? Just so happens I have quite a few Pagan friends, and know even more people who practice the Pagan beliefs. And a vast majority of them are either gay, lesbian, or bi. Do you even KNOW any Pagans or have any clue about the Pagan lifestyle?
Humans create deities that mirror the cultures, ignorance and prejudices of the epoch in which they're derived.
Hence the Christian deity reflects the ignorant bigotry of iron age patriarchal farming societies in the middle East. As they cobbled together the NT they tried to soften it all a bit, but this only makes their deity look even more of a clumsy bumbling sadistic and barbaric hick, who was so inept it supposedly needed two goes at everything.
It's almost funny.....until you see the nefarious pernicious effects religion has wrought on the world
I like this quote from Hitchens.
"Many religions now come before us with ingratiating smirks and outspread hands, like an unctuous merchant in a bazaar. They offer consolation and solidarity and uplift, competing as they do in a marketplace. But we have a right to remember how barbarically they behaved when they were strong and were making an offer that people could not refuse."
Says it all really.
Old Man & Everyone Else
As far as I am concerned, you can have all the copies of that second post that you desire.
In fact, I am still working on a treatise/thesis paper that includes all those verses along with my take on each verse. Just have not finished it yet. Fortunately for that second post, I still had the *.txt file that listed all those verses. And I am still hunting for more.
Anyone want to start a betting pool on how many more I shall find?
rmfr
You could spend a lifetime detailing all the insane fucked up shit in the various versions of the bible. Got to draw a line somewhere, I would say stick to first 25 most obvious and well known glaring ones that you put commentary on. But thats me.
Guessing what I am saying here, put me down in your pool for "a shit ton."
Dang. I forgot. Although I had already started compiling all those verses, I stumbled onto this website:
https://unpleasantgod.ffrf.org/#/
rmfr
Okay, well as is often the case, I guess I need to simplify this.....
Good question btw, but their is a very easy answer;
Because Christianity was created at a time when people as a whole, looked at homosexuality as a terrible thing, punishable by death. Some of us have grown since then. Christianity has not.
Bam :)
Any more questions ?
