I want to explore a thought, a question that demands consideration.  What if God is real?  OK… that one has been explored and answered so many times, for so long throughout history, that I will defer to the exhaustively done.

No… the question I want to consider is: what if evolution is not just a theory?

If it truly took billions of years and endless, accidental chemical interactions to finally end up with DNA, chromosomes, and genes; and then billions more years for those bits of matter to combine, just so, to enable life to somehow spark; and then even more billions of years for that small spark to finally result in human beings; if all of these accidental, highly unlikely events finally ran through enough statistical revolutions to get to you and me; how truly special can we be?  We are merely accidents that finally happened.

Assuming this approach to our beginnings and following through with evolutionary processes as described in science and biology classes in schools across this country, then somewhere in the evolutionary process of adaptation, yet another accident happened.  How else can one account for a genetic expression called homosexuality?  Using evolutionary thought processes, there is absolutely no possible adaptational need for this genetic expression, so it must have been an accident, a mutation.  Given this, and the extreme length of time, for this surely is not a recent genetic expression, this mutation must have existed; it would stand to reason that homosexuality should have been eliminated through the process of natural selection, even as have so many other unnatural, unnecessary genetic expressions.  Yet somehow?

Continuing this thought train in a different direction, if we are mere accidental beings, what could possibly be wrong with using the occasional accident as the subject of in-depth study, especially if someone just happened to have one available that they didn’t particularly want, would be socially or professionally inconvenienced by the burden of caring for at that particular time of their lives.  And wouldn’t it be absolutely incredible if, through the study of this and many other similarly supplied unwanted subjects, amazing advancements were made in the understanding and manipulation of the very accidental genetic chemical codes that regulated the development and growth that we accidental beings progressed through in our beginnings.  Consider the implications; there need be no more birth defects, no more genetic mutations to grow undetected and unchecked in the developing fetus.  At what point after this would all unnatural, unnecessary genetic expressions be eliminated from the human gene pool?

Does it not seem counter intuitive to presume that homosexuality must be a genetic expression, a mutation of the human condition?  Would it not make much more sense to label this phenomenon a matter of choice, made by a very special, purposely created being who is loved and desired by the one who created it?  Could it not be that evolution is still a very suspect theory without substance nor support in reality, unprovable and ill-thought-out?  We are not accidents.  Homosexuality is not an irrevocable condition hard-wired into the genetic code of individuals at conception leaving them no choice but to follow the “natural” unnaturalness of their genetic makeup.  God does not create junk, but this fallen world does destroy the very fabric of the creation He made to be perfect in every way, and which we, His highest created being bargained away for the sweet taste of sin.
