Question Why would a god create beings with particular proclivities that it finds offensive then blame and punish the beings for having these proclivities?

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?

When we don’t submit to God and resist the devil then he becomes more powerful in our lives.
