Would he go to the LGBT section of Yahoo Answers and trash them?

No. He would condemn the Pharisaical religious Right for not caring for people and creation. And he would condemn the elitist religious Left for not giving God credit nor loving him. And the Christians on the Left and the Right would unite and crucify him as a politically divisive blasphemer.

Jesus made an effort to reach out to all sinners. And not all believers "trash" gays, just the stupid ones. We get called stupid things like hate-monger and fundie just for disagreeing withe lifestyle so go figure.

No, to all three of your questions.
Wait, I don't know anything about Jesus or GOD, never mind.
(Just my first impulse of your question, before thinking.)
I guess I would be shocked Jesus would be, could be, mean when no one is insulting GOD. People living as best they can, following the principles Jesus set down, why would Jesus react like that?

No. Jesus even healed the male slave of a Roman officer; there's currently a debate about the exact translation of the term that's been rendered as "slave". It might have meant "slave" in the sense of a male concubine.
If that's the case, then Jesus had no problem whatsoever with gay people. Look at how he accepted that soldier!
From the link listed below...
"A classic example is provided in Matthew 8. There, a Roman soldier asked Jesus to heal his "pais." This is a Greek term often used in ancient times to refer to a servant who was his master's same-sex partner. (K.J. Cover, Greek Homosexuality (Harvard University Press, Cambridge, 1978), p. 16). When the soldier said, "Lord, my 'partner' is lying at home paralyzed, in terrible distress," Jesus was immediately compassionate and spoke no words of exclusion or condemnation. He simply said, "I will come and heal him."
In the dialogue that followed, Jesus commended this Roman solider for having more faith than anyone he had ever met and assured him that he would sit down in the Kingdom of Heaven with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. By this miracle of healing, Jesus preserved this loving same-sex relationship. (For more information about the Greek term referred to above and how it should be translated, see the book recommended below.)
The Gospels are clear. Jesus refused to be bound by cultural prejudice. Repeatedly, he took up the cause of the oppressed and defended them against narrow-minded religious leaders."
And from the second link...
"Jesus did not live in Jewish Judea but in pagan Galilee. Here he would surely have been familiar with the Roman army's tolerance for homerotic relations extending across class lines. Jesus knew this was likely a homosexual relationship and by his cure indirectly endorsed it."

No,Jesus would not be hateful towards gays,nor would He be hateful towards atheists or anyone. Jesus was and still is our compassionate and loving Lord and Savior to all mankind.

No, Jesus is not like that . He loves them but he dosen't love their sin that's all . If they wanted to be forgiven he would forgive them . The bible says while we were yet sinners christ died for us, just because somebody is sinning dosen't mean God hates them .
Hope that answered your question .

Ofcourse not...."Hate the sin not the sinner" and we all sin so Jesus would probably practice what he preaches of "whoever has not ever sinned can through the first stone" so obviously no one is without sin and no one is perfect so no one can judge someone else for their sins.

He wouldn't. The Bible shows that Jesus befriended the people who were reviled in His time here on earth. He would have mixed with gay people too. He also would have told them a parable or two.

I believe that Jesus loves every one no matter what your sin is' he does not hate he forgives if you ask. Jesus loved us so much that he gave his life for all siners. He does not look at ones sin for all sin is the same in his eyes. We all are siners we are not perfect but we must repent of our worldly ways.

Of course not !!! Gays and Lesbians are human beings too. Regardless of how abominable that is in the Bible, we are to respect them. That is between them and their Creator. We don't have a right to cast a stone on anyone. Jesus was a Jew and we don't discriminate against them, because that is not our job to do.
