This one made me laugh. Hard. If there was a god who is all powerful as the Christians would suggest then I think he/she would be able to use his/her omnipotence to see how homosexuality might be a sticking point for the unenlightened and address it in turn. Apparently 33 years(sic) was not long enough for Jesus to tackle the subject.
