Are Moslems left-handed? Do Hindus like blueberries? Are Jaynes fond of Mozart? Do Jews tango?
Shoot, child, stop with the simpleminded lumping of people under broad labels. Some Christians believe that homosexuality is a sin, of a certainty. Some Christians also believe that the end is nigh and everyone but themselves is going to Hell. Some Christians also pick their noses and eat it.
But to say "all Christians believe" ANYTHING is just wrong.

I am not sure what all "Christians" believe, but the bible is clear that homosexuality is an abomination. Followers of Christ should be clear on this. We are called to love everyone. God loves everyone, but HE hates sin. Homosexuality is a sin.
God Bless You

True Christians view homosexuality as a sin. However, many professed Christians do not agree. In some churches, gays are allowed to practice their lifestyle and remain in good standing in their congregations. In other churches, gays are even elected to positions of leadership instead of being expelled for moral indiscretion. There is no place in true Christianity for homosexuality.

You cannot be a Christian and not believe Homosexuality is a sin.

Did you just get back from an extended space flight starting in the Year 10 B.C.E or something? The aliens taught you all about modern life on Earth and how to communicate in english but didn't tell you anything at all about Christians?
Since 'sin' is a wrong against God, He put that hole there, so close to where another hole is... as a test!
I can just imagine judgement day for a gay guy....God speaking, " You put your dingaling WHERE..???? ON PURPOSE??? HOW MANY TIMES???..."

Yes, but Christians sin too so they shouldn't judge homosexuals the way they do by saying things like they are going to hell because Christians sin too so I guess we Christians are going to Hell. No, maybe but I'm fine with homosexuals.

To the majority of responders to this question:
You're a right bunch of loving Christians, aren't you?
Quoting the bible is not an answer. It just tells us how the Jews felt about it 2500 years ago. This is the 21st century and I would like to think we have learned something since then.
The bible is not God.
God does not hate anyone, so stop blaspheming with His name, please.
Gays are just as good or as bad as anyone else, and Christ would call them brothers and sisters.
Why not try to emulate Christ's love, for a change, and stop judging others.

Yes, according to the Word of God, homosexuality is a sin. But before anyone jumps down my throat for saying something so against what society believes, I would also like to point out that God views adultery, lying, slander, mallice...all as sin also. We are ALL sinners who are in need of God's love and neverending grace. Praise the Lord for is His mercy!
In response to the people putting down everything in the Old Testament...the coming of Jesus was fulfillment of the prophecy and Moses' law. He was our ultimate sacrifice. His blood covered all of our sins.
If anyone would like to tlak about this more, I'd love to! Aim: californiachk89

Wether Christians believe it or not, the Bible states that it is. Leviticus 18:22 says Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind it is abomination. Romans 1:27 says And likewise the men leaving the natural use ofr the woman, burned in their lust one toward another. men with men working that which is unseemly and receiving in themselves the recompense of their error.

The church does. Christians are a mixed lot. And for the woman that quoted Leviticus - it also says that it is an abomination in the eyes of the lord to eat clams, crabs, shrimp, lobsters, oysters, escargot, halibut, catfish, pork, bear, rabbit and a whole host of other stuff, but you will never see Christians quoting that part of the bible.
