Maybe Dinosaurs were Gay...

Let's suppose that marriage becomes a generic term for all sexual unions with a commitment. It wouldn't be inconceivable that the gay community could consider their sexuality to be 'evolved' and by implication beneficial for any person. If it's a positive relationship for one, why not good for many; maybe even for everyone? What if we evolved to the point that homosexuality became the norm for human relationships? By evolution's standards we have just ensured our extinction. Procreation is a fundamental necessity in any species' survival.

I'm not an evolutionist but if I were, I'd have a concern about homosexuality being considered an equally viable lifestyle. We do not find examples of it in nature. Everywhere I look there is a male and a female counterpart in the reproductive process. This leaves us in a dilemma as to how regard homosexuality in light of the laws of nature.

I am a creationist because I believe that those laws of nature were put in place by a Creator God and I believe the Bible is His Word to us. I believe He designed this world and created us with the ability to procreate and that He was pleased with His design. But the people He created rejected God; didn't want to live by God's design with the rules intended for our well-being. Every manufacturer gives along a written instruction booklet for the proper use and understanding of their product. Why should we be surprised that God might do the same?

So what does the Bible say?

"But God shows his anger from heaven against all sinful,
wicked people who push the truth away from themselves. For
the truth about God is known to them instinctively. God has put this
knowledge in their hearts. From the time the world was created,
people have seen the earth and sky and all that God made. They
can clearly see his invisible qualities - his eternal power and
divine nature. So they have no excuse whatsoever for not knowing
God. Yes, they knew God, but they wouldn't worship him as God or
even give him thanks. And they began to think up foolish ideas
of what God was like. The result was that their minds became
dark and confused....That is why God abandoned them to
their shameful desires. Even the women turned against the
natural way to have sex and instead indulged in sex with
each other. And the men, instead of having normal sexual
relationships with women, burned with lust for each other. Men
did shameful things with other men and , as a result,
suffered within themselves the penalty they so richly
deserved. When they refused to acknowledge God, he abandoned
them to their evil minds and let them do things that
should never be done." Rom 1:18-21,26-28 NLT

If God's Word were not true, then incidentally no one should have nothing to fear from those who live by it because of all people, we acknowledge that there no room for judgment (or hatred in any form) as each one of us falls so far short of God's design. I certainly do! We should be the last people on earth to treat any person without love, consideration and kindness.

If God's Word is true, then I would be the very worst of hypocrites to say nothing; to live and let live... and call it love and acceptance. It is because I do care (and care deeply) about individuals and society as a whole that I must speak up even at the risk of offending. This is simply not about begrudging financial benefits, fair treatment and equal opportunity. It is about ensuring a healthy and viable future for our society; for my children and yours.

And dinosaurs...well, who knows why they're really extinct?
