Chiming in....
My faith dictates that I shouldn't embrace homosexuality, so I dont embrace it. I will teach my family and ensure that they share my faith so that they too know why they shouldn't embrace it. Though I do not like discussing my religious beliefs in this forum, I do feel it needs to be stated that it is indeed in the Bible that God does not allow his followers to be homosexuals or engage in homosexual activity.
I do understand however, that many have little control over what they desire especially when it becomes habitual like a vice. Smoking, for example. Smoking is a vice a person develops from his environment, no one is born with the urge to smoke. Or GAS, no one is born with the urge to buy tons of gear. Homosexuality is a vice, that is my stand until it is definitively proven otherwise. I will treat homosexuals with the amount of respect I give my smoker friends, Im okay with you being around me just dont smoke in my house or dont let me smell your smoke or else I will stand up and leave or ask you to leave. The only gay friends I will accept and respect are those that say "I know the Bible says its wrong, but I cant control myself", the rest will be treated quid pro quo.
Homosexuals are humans and they are entitled to their rights, and modern society entitles us to embrace what we want to (or not) believe in. For as long as they do not argue on a religious level and stand only for their rights as humans (in this society) we will get along. I can not and will not tolerate however, misplaced gay pride. Those that say you are wrong in believing the Bible or God made us this way, I say to them "prove it".
I have a close friend whose gay and I'm fine with him being gay. We get along very well, I sometimes have dinner with him and his boylet in my house. But he knows he can't use my guest room to f.ck.
