No, it really isn’t okay to encourage a blurring of gender lines. It isn’t okay to stop calling same sex intercourse an abomination. God doesn’t change His definitions of sin to match cultural fads. He maintains rigid lines of right and wrong in order to intensify certain trials. It is because God says having sex with animals is an abomination that struggling with bestiality is such a crisis. If God hadn’t laid down these lines, we’d all be getting it on with whatever and whoever and never think twice about it. God has set up rigid boundaries which He then causes some of us to feel intensely suffocated by. He says getting drunk is wrong, then He wires some souls with intense cravings for alcohol. He says dressing like the opposite gender is despicable, then He causes some men to feel like they’re really female inside and to want to “transition” into presenting themselves as women in public. When we find God intentionally trapping us in these kinds of binds, we need to seek Him directly and ask Him to help us honor Him in the midst of our struggles.

Wait... did Anna Diehl just say that she would be fucking animals without a second thought if she hadn't had the Bible to stop her?
Anna has some issues. Nobody would be fucking animals without the bible because that's crazy. I don't recall the name for that kind of logical fallacy but it's there.
If two dudes wanna fuck, let em, if two women wanna fuck, let em. If consenting individuals want to have sex with each other that is their business.
And if your God is real, well that's really up for him to judge, but if he (or she... or they... depending on whether or not they truly exist) are/is going to judge people for just finding comfort and love in others be it outside their own race, or with a member of the same sex or even someone who was born in the wrong kind of body. Then they are a asshole and I'll see you in hell.

For fuck's sake, what's up with these people always talking about bestiality?

So, God is a sadist. You know, I didn't need an aditional reason to dislike him.

Why do I keep imagining Anna in her bedroom with a German Shepherd and a jar of peanut butter?
"...struggling with bestiality is such a crisis."
Whoa there, Anna! That's more than I really wanted to know about you.
Anna's god is its own worst enemy. It deliberately wires some of its creations to have forbidden desires, then blames them for giving into the temptation that God seemingly, and secretly, wants them to give in to. After this, of course, it is prone to tantrums.
Tests created by God truly is a weak excuse for addiction, disease, and anything negative that can befall upon a person. A loving and caring deity wouldn't need to continuously subject its creations to testing. By doing so it is only going to come across as being insecure, petty, and devoid of empathy. Throw in the traits that befit your deity (e.g. narcissism and sadism), and you're left with a horror of a god.

DID NOT NEED THAT IMAGE!

If it's God's fault that I'm like this, then He needs to own up to His own mistake. If your God can consider me guilty for a crime He Himself pushed me to commit, as you say, and if He put these urges within me with the intent of blaming me for His own shortcomings, then He is either incompetent, or evil, and I see no reason to revere Him either way.
NEXT.
"God doesn’t change His definitions of sin to match cultural fads."
No, those only change when they don't serve whatever church they are associated with anymore.

Incidentally, it would seem like God is the only being who would truly deserve to go to hell.
So God sets up rules, then makes it incredibly hard to follow those rules, all so we'll need to seek his forgiveness for breaking the rules, thereby becoming more dependent on him? Wow. He sounds like either an abusive parent or a loan shark. Maybe both.
Have you ever played a Shin Megami Tensei game, Anna? I think I know which faction you'd choose..
God doesn’t change His definitions of sin to match cultural fads.
And this is why we are still living according to the OT’s rules

Is Anna really not realizing what these two sentences say about her?
So...your god gives people 'trials' then demands that they deny acting upon them and punishes them for acting upon inclinations he gave them in the first place.
Your god isn't just an utter douche, he's a fucking psycho.
> So God sets up rules, then makes it incredibly hard to follow those rules, all so we'll need to seek his forgiveness for breaking the rules, thereby becoming more dependent on him? Wow. He sounds like either an abusive parent or a loan shark. Maybe both.
At least loan sharks have a profit motive.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
