That's an assumption. That's your problem, no one else's.

God wants there to be homosexuals

No it's scriptural, his answer was get married. He had some serious hang ups on sex itself.

No, your assumption that Paul didn't accept any sort of sex is your assumption. That simply is not true. Neither Christ or Paul accepted any sort of sex outside of marriage between a man and a woman as originally designed in Genesis. Both accepted that and Paul even said so more than once.
1 Corinthians 7:1 (KJV)
Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.

Let's put that in context, shall we:
7 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.
2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.
Every man having a wife is not forbidding sex. Good try, though.

Yo man, there are so many things that you have written that scream naivety, I ask you, why are you writing this stuff, just to show what goes through one's mind is one thing and a reason but is that all?
I'm a bit out of place here, since I don't believe in the conventional concept of some "mastermind-god" that controls the universe. And I've been making some nice paper-airplanes out of the pages of the one bible that I own.
In all seriousness though, I'm tired of the stigma associated with sexual preferences, which is in no small way perpetuated by conservative-christian bullsmack.
When I was in high school, one of the star football players was found out to be gay. As tough as he was, he couldn't handle the aftermath of everyone talking about it, his parents finding out, etc. He committed suicide.
In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with loving and appreciating yourself as-is. No external forces can do that for you in a reliable manner.

I didn't say anything about what doesn't consitute fornication, in fact I said "his answer is get married". Nice deflection but you didn't change anything I said.

I think it is clear that God wants there to be homosexuals. That's the message I was trying to get across

I don't think that is clear, but what is clear it is that it doesn't object to there being homosexuals in existence or there wouldn't be any.

What does that entail, specifically? How were you convinced?
