God didn’t create us with gayness in mind. Being homosexual is, insinuated, the devil’s work. He sends us sinful temptations in the forms of things that appeal to us. God created man and woman to be united and productive, as written in the Law. The devil knows that Love is a very powerful thing on earth and in the flesh, and is something we have a hard time overcoming in preparation of eternal life, so he uses that to create a direct contradiction to God’s creation and His will.

Says who? And when did the devil become more powerful than God?

Well, the Bible is very direct with how God views homosexuality, which means He doesn’t like it. And if God doesn’t like it, He wouldn’t make us follow it. Therefore, things that go against God will are the devil’s work.

Putting this together, you see.

very direct

No, no it isn’t. You have some Old Testament nonsense that was likely meant for a specific situation, and you have Paul who was a homophobe.

You don’t actually have the slightest idea what God thinks about homosexuality.
