"…[M]ost men who molest little boys are not gay. Only 21 percent of the child molesters we studied who assault little boys were exclusively homosexual. Nearly 80 percent of the men who molested little boys were heterosexual or bisexual and most of these men were married and had children of their own."


A new study led by researchers at Vanderbilt found that 83% of lesbian, gay, bisexual and queer (LGBQ) individuals reported going through adverse childhood experiences such as sexual and emotional abuse, and worse mental health as adults when compared to their heterosexual peers.

82% of the suspected perpetrators of child sexual abuse in a study sample were at the time of the offense or had been at some time involved in a heterosexual relationship with a close relative of the child they victimized. In their study sample, researchers found that a child’s risk of being molested by his or her relative’s heterosexual partner was over 100 times greater than their being molested by someone who identifies as being homosexual, lesbian or bisexual (0.7% of the cases).1  According to a study conducted in Massachusetts, young lesbians and bisexual girls experienced more sexual harassment than heterosexual girls. 72% of lesbian and bisexual girls reported that they were “called sexually offensive names” by their peers, compared with 63% of heterosexual girls. Lesbians and bisexual girls were significantly more likely than heterosexual girls to be “touched, brushed up against, or cornered in a sexual way (63% as compared to 52% of heterosexual girls) and to be grabbed or have their clothing pulled in a sexual way (50% compared to 44%). 23% of young lesbian and bisexual girls reported that their peers had “attempted to hurt them in a sexual way (attempted rape or rape),” while 6% of the heterosexual girls surveyed had experienced sexual violence of this nature.”2  A recent study of 103 transgender women in Massachusetts found that approximately 60% of the respondents have been forced to have sex against their will and 38% had been subject to multiple incidents of sexual assault.3  According to the First National Survey of Transgender Violence, 13.7% of 402 persons reported being a victim of rape or attempted rape. 4  In a study of 162 gay men and 111 lesbians, 52% reported at least one incident of sexual coercion by same-sex partners. Gay men experienced 1.6 incidents per
person; while lesbians experienced 1.2 incidents per person.5  According to a study of homeless and marginally housed people, 32% of women, 27% of men, and 38% of transgendered persons reported either physical or sexual victimization in the previous year. Sexual assault was reported by 9.4% of women,

One can give the statistics of rape and pedophilia acts whether against lgtbq or heterosexuals it still doesn't make their activities right before God or the assault of rape.

One can give the statistics of murder - one can give statistics of adultery, fornication, lying, cheating, stealing etc none of which is right before the eyes of God.

And if the history of people continues to repeat itself, the lgtbq will become relaxed and themselves begin to participate in more heinous activities.

All irrelevant to the question of what God says in Scripture about homosexuality.

God does not make anyone gay.
I don't know that.

God creates challenges for people to see if they will truly love him and follow him.
So what if a person only has this challenge they have to overcome?
They are not theives, or murderers, or liers, or hateful...
They have no faults to repent from except this particular one that we find so grevious.
I'm not gay. I wasn't created gay. That doesn't mean God doesn't have a purpose for gay people.
Why did God harden Pharoahs heart?
Why did God lead the children in the wilderness for forty years?

They were being proved.

If you are a christian then you have come through the proving process. You believed, you repented and now you follow Christ.
The rest of the world is still being proven.
Their challenge is not our challenge.
They will have to make a decision of their own at some point... or not.

If God calls them and they make a conscious decision to know him, then they will have to make that decision for themselves.
You can't change them and neither can I. But with God All things are possible.

Hugs

May I have a verse that says God creates challenges for Christians to see if they will truly love Him and follow Him?
