God is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent, right?
If I could erase every serial killer, serial rapist and every serial paedophile from existence I would not hesitate to do so.
Unfortunately I'm not a god.

Good question.
You must have begun to doubt the doctrine of God. The doctrine of God is inconsistent.

Being gay is against the bible.

God created everything,including gays.

Why did God create something against himself?

I often heard people say"Nobody is perfect,we are just human beings,not God."

Next time we can say"Nobody is perfect,even God makes mistakes!"

First of all, I dont believe for a second God hates gay people or atheist. He loves both! I also do not believe that God intended for men and women to be gay. Lets say I created a bio-sphere, and inside everything was perfect, but somehow a bacteria (sin) entered into to it, from a small hole in the side. Now everything inside is contaminated, causing all kinds of problems, not just for the living things inside..but for the off spring of those as well. I think we all have things in our life that we try to overcome, bury or hide from other people. I think we should blame sin and not God.

Thats is what happened in the Garden of Eden..sin corrupted all of us..causing all kinds of things to happen, and not all of them to Gods liking.

God does not kill and / or shun people, people (as in religions and atheists) kill and / or shun people.

there you go..both sides are guilty..I dont see where Jesus shunned anyone, well except for the "religious, pious crowd of his day".
