Homosexuality is a sin
Homosexuals are people. Jesus died for all people. While I believe homosexuality is a sin, it is no different or worse than any other sins. Jesus would sit down and eat with homosexuals. Why won't we? [church people in general] I am not better than homosexuals just because my sins are in different areas than theirs. Jesus died for everyone.

I am not against a person who is homosexual. People seem to have this preconceived idea that people who don't believe that homosexuality is right are out to get people who are or think less of them because of it. That is simply not true, at least in my case. If I were to judge a person by the choices they make I would be judged by the same measuring stick I judged them with and I already have enough to answer for without adding that to it. The people who do hate because of it will find out one day they had no right to judge.

Why is someone against homosexual persons? A person is a person is a person. God created all of us in His image and we are all worthy of respect and compassion.
Why are some against the sexual act of homosexuality?
Well, If you take a look in the Bible, God specifiaclly points out in several passages that He considers the sex act between two persons of the same gender as a sin against Him. He is the One who is "against" the sin.
Rom 1:22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools
Rom 1:23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man, birds, four-footed animals, and reptiles.
Rom 1:24 Therefore God delivered them over in the cravings of their hearts to sexual impurity, so that their bodies were degraded among themselves.
Rom 1:25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served something created instead of the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.
Rom 1:26 This is why God delivered them over to degrading passions. For even their females exchanged natural sexual intercourse for what is unnatural.
Rom 1:27 The males in the same way also left natural sexual intercourse with females and were inflamed in their lust for one another. Males committed shameless acts with males and received in their own persons the appropriate penalty for their perversion.
Rom 1:28 And because they did not think it worthwhile to have God in their knowledge, God delivered them over to a worthless mind to do what is morally wrong.
1Co 6:9 Do you not know that the unjust will not inherit God's kingdom? Do not be deceived: no sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, male prostitutes, homosexuals,
1Co 6:10 thieves, greedy people, drunkards, revilers, or swindlers will inherit God's kingdom.
Gal 5:16 I say then, walk by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh.
Gal 5:17 For the flesh desires what is against the Spirit, and the Spirit desires what is against the flesh; these are opposed to each other, so that you don't do what you want.
Gal 5:18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Gal 5:19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, moral impurity, promiscuity,
Gal 5:20 idolatry, sorcery, hatreds, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions,
Gal 5:21 envy, drunkenness, carousing, and anything similar, about which I tell you in advance--as I told you before--that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
1Th 4:3 For this is God's will, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality,
1Th 4:4 so that each of you knows how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
Many will tell you that the Bible does not say that, but there you have it in direct quotes.
Notice also that God's admonition includes adulterers, and all manner of sexual immorality, not JUST homosexuals.
The homosexual community would have you believe that they are "special" and deserve special treatments but in God's eyes, according to the Bible, they are common, immoral sinners, indulging in sexual perversion.
There are many more verses that address this issue but they all say pretty much the same thing.
God created a man and a woman to complete each other, not to compete each other.
God designed a man and a woman to "fit".
We should follow God's design.

I'm not against them at all. Are you also against plants and animals? Cause they're natural too. If you don't believe they're natural than how do you explain homosexuality in animals?

I've always been against homosexuals and always will be. Pressed very firmly against.
What if god didn't make you that way? What if you are gay because Mr Klaw's sex appeal is so great that nothing can resist him?

What exactly do you mean?
Homosexuality isn't my sexual preference, but if God made you that way I don't have a problem with that.

Because I am weak-minded and have succumbed to a mob mentality that unify's through fear, coercion, and outright threats (i.e. believe this or suffer eternally in hell). I also take pleasure in demeaning others in an effort to make me feel better about myself and my own faults.

Be fruitful and multiply. When the sexual activities between same sex produces a life ........I would understand/condone....
If you love life and you love God , then you would sacrifice the corrupt desires.
