If you're like me you've probably heard enough about the biblical legitimacy, or lack thereof, for homosexual
orientation. Please bear with me for just a minute as I add one more little scriptural tidbit concerning this explosive subject.
The other day I was reading the Genesis account of Noah and the flood. In chapter 6, verse 19 reads, "And of every living
thing of all flesh, you shall bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female"
(italics mine). Later in chapter 7, verse 9 reads, "...two and two, male and female, went into the ark with Noah..."
I've heard it said that biologically speaking, we humans are the highest form of life in the class of animals. There has
always been a clear and obvious distinction among the wide variety of animals on this earth. We know that distinction
as simply males and females. No doubt this distinction has been designed by an intelligence far outside our finite capacity.
Yet, it seems to me to be a fairly down-to-earth, reasonable design, an understandable distinction in the animal world.
Male and female were designed to compliment each other, to fit together, to keep the distinction alive.
Somewhere along the line we humans made a different distinction--male with male, female with female--that contridicts
the original design. What other male (or female) creature in the animal world can you name that was
designed/designated to cohabitate with another animal of the same sex? Why do we think humans are originally designed
to be homosexual when no other creature in the animal world was ever so designed? Think about it.
