Why are all the Christians so absolutely livid with the homosexual lifestyle but aren't as engaged regarding other sins/vices such as premarital sex, children out of wedlock, alcohol consumption, over indulgence in worldly possessions, etc. Aren't these sins condemned by God's Wrath as well?

I believe they are all equally offensive to God and equally sinful. Unfortunately they are often overlooked by some in the church. I agree that all sex outside the bounds of marriage (which is defined as one man & one woman for life) is sinful. Alcohol consumption in and of itself is OK - Jesus drank wine - but drunkenness is sin. And Jesus was clear about money -
"No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money." - Luke 16:13

Assuming that homosexuality is a sin (which I don't believe it is) then I believe Christians persecute homosexuals because homosexuals are acceptable victims in our society's eyes just as at one point African Americans were. Through activism African Americans have gained status in our society and our church communities and it is no longer acceptable to spew racist language (not that it still doesn't happen). I believe some day homosexuals will achieve the status as unacceptable victims and that this will be achieved through consistent activism against victimization. When it becomes unacceptable to society, then I believe churches/Christians will ease up on their treatment of homosexuals just as they did with previous groups. Then they will find someone else to pick on!

A Sin is a Act , and except for Blasphemy they are all Sin with equal weights,
Homosexuality is a Life Style of Sin. meaning they will not ask forgiveness , because they feel they are right. at least they Claim they are. Forgiveness is the Key.

My upbringing taught me that suicide it the only unforgivable sin. I am sure that if there was a God that he/she would weigh sins differently. But at the same time they are all sins, therefore they are all wrong or bad. I personally think there is a very big difference between actions that harm others and those that only harm yourself. When you hurts others around you is when I get really upset at people.

Actually, Sins against the Holy Spirit are the worst sins. They cry to Heaven for vengence. These are sins of Hatred of God and Despair of God's Mercy.

All sins are equal there is no one sin greater than the other. So I dont know y people point out homosexuals so much.

There are no little or big sins in the eyes of God. Flaunting and trying to get approval for their life choices is why so many are down on homos.

The Bible says that all sins are the same. I'm a Christian and I don't just homosexuals. It's not my job.

Who ever said one sin is worse than another. As for Christians committing sins well we are no better than anyone else we all need Christ's Atonement to save us. I am not so worried about what you do in your bedroom as I am with how I am living my life.
