For this reason God gave them up to shameful afflictions. For their women exchanged natural relations for those that are contrary to nature...
Romans 1:26
Shameful afflictions (pathe atimios) of the mind. Pathos refers to a disease, not a desire. This isn't talking about STDs, but a spiritual, mental, and physical addiction brought on by engaging in activities that are bad for you. Like diabetes and other lifestyle-connected illnesses, it gets worse the more you engage in the behavior.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves...
Romans 1:24 ESV
If you reject that which every child can discern, why should God invite you into deeper truths? Some people are determined to believe a lie, and God allows them to be who they want to be.
If there is a single, ultimate Creator of the universe, then logically he must be infinitely powerful, infinitely wise. He would be terrifying beyond our imagination with standards higher than we could ever reach...so we set our sights lower. We ignore the Creator and worship creatures because they don't demand anything too big. We can make them weak and flawed, just like us, and then pat ourselves on the back for how great we are.
Romans 1:22-23
Good Morning!
"Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall observe and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven."

Good Morning! ☀️ ☕️
For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse.
Romans 1:20 ESV
God's existence and nature are revealed through his Creation and can only be denied through deliberate rejection and indoctrination.
