Both would be the ultimate test of Faith!
This is how I see it:
God calls us His Children,
God does not call us His Gay Children.
God does not See what we Do, but Who We Are!
I could explain more of how I got to this point, but it is a journey one must take at their own pace.

Well,
With both, we choose to be either a Gay person or a Christian person.
Sure, there are those gay men and women who say they are Christians and that is good for them. It is kind of an oxmorn though because that means the 'church' they attend overlook in the Bible that homosexuality is not of the Lord. I believe the God of the Universe created a man and a women with a specific function. When both a Man and a Woman come together, they procreate and another human being enters the world to populate the earth.
It is like this, everything we see has a male and a female function. And, each of these objects, living or non living has a function to perform. For instance, a computer cable has either a male or female end. The male end usually goes into a wall unit and the female part is usually attached to the end of the CPU. Have you ever seen a computer with the male function on the backside of it? I have not.
Okay, below are a few websites I found to explain the male and female aspects.
But, I hope my above answer helped out a little bit.

I know people who are Gay and have very much Christian beliefs, or Christians who feel they are gay. Either way, I know this would be an extremely hard situation. I have a hard time as a Christian, as once you say you're something, some people will always be on the lookout to see how you act like a hypocrite or contradict what it is you call yourself. In our mass culture, sadly enough, gays are only tolerated, and haven't been fully accepted. Anytime someone has to go through life unaccepted for what they are, a major burden is cast on them. I imagine being gay would be very difficult by times because of this.

When you are a real Christian, it is not hard at all. You would consider yourself as a servant, an ambassador of Jesus and you love Him so much that you would be willing to suffer even to death for Him.
I am not a gay, so I don´t know, I just have some idea about the way they feel.
In many movies and sitcoms you see these handsome, elegant and fine homosexuals living and moving freely in their communities, being accepted and so forth. But there are many places where this is not true. Gays and lesbians are not accepted; in many places they would even be tortured or killed.
And that is my point.
A real Christian is willing to suffer for the love of Christ.
And I don´t think that homosexuals feel that way.
So, my answer to this VERY DIFFICULT but very pertinent question is: "It would be harder to be gay. And harder than that would be a Christian gay because the Bible, that is the Word of God to Christians, condemns homosexualism." Read Mathew 11:29. God bless you.

Being Christian is harder. Society is becoming more accepting of people who're gay. I'm not saying that it's not had for a gay person because that would be bs I have friends who're gay and it's not easy for them.
However when you're christian people put you up on this pedestal. They expect you to be perfect and not make any mistakes. They expect you to be a certain way and if you're not...you will be judged. You're not only going to be judge by people in your church circle but society as well. People just have this thing were they think once you're christian it means you're perfect.
If someone is both...well good luck to them cause that sure as hell will not be an easy road to travel.

It would be harder for me to be with a Christian, if that Christian was the type who talked about their religion and tried to convert or was sanctimonious - and I've been around plenty like that. Being around someone who is gay is not usually a problem. If someone was both, the Christian side would more likely be the hard part to put up with.

being a christian is the ultimate easy - thinking is not only not required, it's not allowed. (i'm talking red state christians here.) it's a religion that requires nothing - it allows every hatred, vice, and shallowness 'the believe' ever had, he/she can just smile and say 'i'm not perfect, just forgiven.'
Being a christian gay has got to be harder than being a free-thinking gay because you don't have layers of guilt and stupidity trapping your mind if you're a free-thinking gay.

It depends on where you are. Some places are prejudice against gays and some against Christians. Where I live it would be harder to be gay. I know some people who are both.

I don't really know. Most people make fun of gay people, but it seems like the world is accepting them more and more. Christians are losing their popularity. They less and less appreciated. My conclusion is that being gay or Christian would both be hard.

It is not hard being who or what U R. Following a religion to all it's guidelines, though, that' is because life challenges us every moment we live and tests our faith. N if Ur both U should embrace them both 4 they R U.
