Catholics have it backward: Every god is made in the likeness of man. My mom created me (there is evidence for this).
I have to object to "God's beautiful design," as we are a beautiful product of non-random selection. Sure, the church is making progress. It used to burn women and now it only suppresses them. Our self-made design is to attempt intercourse wherever and whenever we can, and our kids should be doing this vaccinated and with readily-available contraception.
In this secular society, no one wears a scarlet letter for reproducing before marriage or being attracted to the same sex. Same-sex couples have a right to their sexuality in a free society. They have a right to carry couple's insurance and live unmolested by barbaric belief systems. Get your religion off my patients' backs.
