Of course. God created males to be male and females to be female, and any attempt to change that is an abomination... but he didn't create intersex people to be intersex, and that must be "corrected". Just goes to show, this is just man putting his hate in God's mouth again.
Honestly, the main reason I don't believe in God is because I can't believe any all-powerful, just and benevolent God would allow things like this to be said in their name without any push back.
Yep. I'll believe in God when he starts smiting Philistines again.
Yeah, but what makes more sense is Dystheism...
"the belief that a god is not wholly good and can even be considered evil, or one and the same with Satan. Definitions of the term somewhat vary, with one author defining it as "where God decides to become malevolent".

A malevolent god is certainly a possibility, but in that case, the absolute best thing I could do is not even acknowledge its presence.
Epicurus Dilemma... I also, cannot get past that
