Yes, He know before He created the earth that Jesus would come die on the cross for our sins.

Is genocide at God's command still OK?

Was it God's voluntary decision to create mankind as he did?

What are the circumstances of two male animals mating? Are there any females available?
Yes. Very available.

As well, why compare man to animals, not a very complimentary example.
It's not done for complementary reasons but to show the "it's unnatural" crowd homosexuality is indeed quite natural.

Quote:
And it is only found in the males, you don't see two females pleasuring eachother.
Patently false. Females among animal species most definitely also pleasure each other.

Just cuz my dog uses his tongue to clean himself, doesn't mean it's okay if i do it. Or my cat eats the kittens that die soon after birth. Not comparable in my pov.
You've never licked remains of food off your fingers? There is a limit to what is comfortable for humans to clean off themselves with their tongue but it's most certainly a task most engage in. We don't eat our young... in most of the world. Various tribes of humans around the globe sure consider it a perfectly fine practice.

Anti-gayness also results in people being shunned, verbally mistreated, fired, denied housing, legislated against, etc.

Whatever traits we are born with are natural by definition: they occur in nature.

I do not believe homosexuality occurs in the animal kingdom...animals practice sexual activity on other animals as a means of dominance-it doesnt have anything to do w/ an emotional attatchment.
Where do you see dominance in a pair of same-sex animals raising young together and being affectionate toward one another?

It is perfectly natural (unless you wish to redefine what "natural" means).

It's not speculation: homosexuality in the animal kingdom is documented and studied.

Quote:
Sex always involves an emotional attatchment among humans. To different degrees.
As it does among animals. To different degrees.

Quote:
For a human to have sex with no emotional attatchment is a result of conditioning, against nature.
