David,
I agree.  Since, according to the Bible, God is the creator of all 
and everything in the Universe, what need does He have to be sexual 
at all?

In my opinion, for too long humans have devised a God created in the 
image of humans and human nature, rather than humans being created in 
the nature of God.  Unfortunately, the men who wrote the Bible were 
of the same mindset of God being like themselves, rather than who He 
truly is.

In regards to homosexality, I personally don't think God cares and 
enough evidence has been found in biological research that perhaps 
homosexuality is a biological condition.  Since God has created 
everything, it would seem he also created homosexuality.

Also, continuing with the Bible theme, what about Jesus who 
socialized and worshipped with what was considered the worst of 
humanity at that time.  I think if he were on earth today, he would 
be repulsed by most chuches and their doctrines and would be out 
inviting people of all sexual orientation to worship God and 
socialize together. 

I'm not anit-God, but neither am a follower of any one religious 
belief.  I have tolerance for all religious beliefs but feel that all 
this religious zeal could be put to better uses and trying to decide 
if homosexuals can be Christians or Christian leaders.
