You are not born:
- L - Lesbian
- G - Gay
- B - Black
- T - Transgender
It is a sin to live as LGBT.
It is not God’s will.
But Jesus can change you.

Right, because kids going through all this sexual/mental stress when they hit high school love making their lives more difficult with bullying and hatred, when they could just choose to be straight. Damn idiots.
/S
*Lol the black edit.
Fun fact, medieval Christians in some parts of Europe actually believed that “moors” (a catch all term for Africans at the time) with black skin would become white if they converted to Christianity, and there were many popular tales of this happening. Race as a concept hadn’t really been invented yet, but medieval people did notice that people they encountered who had dark skin often practiced Islam and wrongly assumed that believing in Islam was the cause of the dark skin rather than it just being who happened to convert.
*moops
Modern Christians haven’t really changed much.
I haven’t realized I am black until this post. Thanks religion, I’m now black because I’m a white bisexual guy.
It’s called the BI-ble, not the Straight-ble. Adam AND Eve, not Adam or Eve.

In 1836 Elijah Abel was similarly promised he would “be made … white in eternity”
Why are you reposting ragebait shite
It’s obviously satire with “black”
The difference between satire and reality is slimmer than most care to admit. Poe’s Law most of all makes it near impossible to pull off “perfect” satire that’s obviously satire to everyone.
The only thing making this post satire compared to what many conservatives unironically believe (yes, even about black people) is it was posted to 196
The opposite is true. If you’re gay, God made you that way for a damn good reason! Who are you to question His will? It is a mortal sin for a gay man to sleep with a woman!
That’s something archaic. God created you so you are attracted to people with the same sex attributes as yours. You ultimately decide what to do with it. You can’t know God’s intent, my child. Maybe he created you to become as strong as a bear, but maybe you were created as bottom generator
Sorry, I’ve got to nitpick your excellent snarky comeback:
It is a mortal sin for a gay man to sleep with a woman!
Such a man isn’t committing a sin; he’s merely bi and confused about labels.
And being bi is, apparently, fine.
No, bisexuals are erased like usual.
Who?
I do think it is most likely true that one’s gender and sexuality is not set at birth but instead emerges later for most people. I mean twin studies for one thing. Doesn’t mean it’s a choice though.
Considering gender is a social construct it can’t exist till a person has assimilated the information needed to create the construction.
Them figuring out where they sit inside of that construction is the tricky part.
Sexuality is hard to say, but considering observation in preferences among other species it’s likely to not manifest fully till an organism goes though their equivalent of puberty.
So in either case there’s basically no real argument that either is from birth. But also there’s even less of an argument that it’s a conscious choice. It’s a manifestation of the chemicals and/or the perception of the person. Depending on which of the two your talking about.
Now if we talking about biological sex. Then yeah your born with the bits you have. Don’t mean you can’t have them changed. Or disagree with the social expectations of gender commonly associated with those bits. Thank you modern medicine and fuck expectations!
Male homosexuality appears to be set before birth in at least some situations (but it’s still not genetic) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraternal_birth_order_and_male_sexual_orientation
For gender dysphoria there have been studies suggesting that prenatal hormone exposure plays a role. Many also experience dysphoria specifically about their genitals, so it’s likely about more than just social gender constructs (probably also depends on the individual though), with at least some contributing factors already decided at birth.
But yea, both gender and sexuality are very complex and there are bound to be environmental factors for both.

I mean, ultimately everything that goes on in your mind has a neurological component of some sort. I suspect with this, for example, the brain is structured to run body template A, but is piloting body template B and is basically throwing an error. I see no reason not to change the body to match the brain, especially since modifying the brain quickly heads into major ethical concerns and philosophical weirdness. I mean, ultimately the brain is you and the body is just a meat mech.
same for sexuality. I didn’t say that pre-birth effects have no impact.
I meant trans status, not gender. I don’t know that science has entirely determined the cause of trans status or that it’s social.
Pretty sure science does have evidence that there is heavy influence from how someone grows? Obviously how someone is raised can change their attitude towards identities, even as far as making ignorant people closet and resent themselves without even truly knowing why.
So… it’s pretty obvious that it’s both. It’s just an open question as to how much each affect, and I’d bet it’s wholly subjective anyways.
Yeah, it just bothers me when people reject “you are not born LGBT” as though it’s somehow a bigoted opinion. I guess they hear “not born” and mentally substitute “it’s a choice.”
I’m pretty sure black people are born black though
No. You accept Jesus, you become White.
It’s always fun when religious people claim to know what is or is not gods intent or doing, when they so often claim “his ways are unfathomable for us mere humans” whenever it suits them.
Or they use the Bible as source, a book written by humans who they never knew and cannot verify if they were terrible people. (based on the content of the bible they most likely were assholes based on modern values)
As a christian, it deeply saddens me to see oyher people who call themselves “christians”, yet they spread hate and antipathy, going agaisnt basically everything that Jesus taught.
Wait, what do you mean you aren’t born bla—
You can bet hard cash that there are an uncomfortable number of ignorant people who thoroughly believe that one isn’t born black, but becomes black through any one (or more) of a myriad of perplexing and completely irrational reasons.
this is bi erasure.
No, see it’s okay to be bi!
We arent even visible to the haters ;_;
And Black erasure at the same time.
As god intended. Apparently.
There are very likely an alarming number of religious people who’d agree.
You have an extra caret.
and of course the original quotes are not related to homosexuality at all: https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenChristian/s/79askQI5Xn
basically it condemns rape. but mainstream conservative “christians” in power could not let such translations to spread
It’s pretty unethical for Jesus to go around turning people gay then.
Maybe he shouldn’t have got so swole then
His last supper was pure protein and steroids…
Jesus is about to fly off that cross and go punch Lex Luthor.
Oh honey, I do not need this argument right now but I am compelled to tell you how wrong you are.
notices what community this is
Oh thank fuck. We’re mocking the thing.
I need to sit down.
Yeah, I had a WTF moment too.
The Fediverse is a… Decent place.
Also there’s more.
oh no. no more. not today.
