As a Christian, I have learned to accept Jews, Muslims, Northern Irish Protestants, Northern Irish Catholics, and as you already know millions of other Christians that I do not see eye to eye with. While I try hard to believe in what is right I know that I am also full of grievous faults and deserve punishment just as much or more than anyone else. Furthermore, like everyone else, I find that I have more in common with than differences with just about anyone I disagree with. I have learned to accept because it is the first step. If you do not take a first step towards someone, you may both be lost forever.

Homesexuality? Must be a new word. But if I understand this new word you created, I think that it's quite acceptable that people have sex at home. That's probably the most common place, and the most accepted place for people to have sex. Is this really that surprising to you?

Why not? As a Christian I have a very hard time dealing with all the "homossexuals don't go to heaven" deal. I see no rational and/or spiritual setbacks in being or accepting homossexuality other than simple prejudice. And what i've learned after years seeking spiritual growth and peace is that prejudice is bad[duh]. And not accepting homossexuals is bad for everyone...

No one is accepting homosexuality, they are simply tolerating it for the present that's all, but you can be assured the hammer will come down on them, it's just a matter of time now that's all, and the religious society will find a way to create a witch hunt towards them, and you can bet you life on that one.

Funny.
I've been trying to understand why so many people are intolerant of others who are different than themselves.
Your question ONLY makes sense in the context of a religion which professes homosexuality to be a sin. And that being gay is a CHOICE. Outside of this dogma- your question has no rational basis.
You must believe that gay men are actually sexually attracted to women, but choose to violate their natural urges and copulate with other men for the sole reason to be outcasts of society and branded sinners by people of 'faith'.
IT IS NOT A CHOICE! Some people just really are gay. Why don't you take Jesus' advice and just be nice to your fellow man.

Well, there are people who are like this, they have always been with us, and they don't want to hide in the closet anymore,
so it looks like everyone else has no choice but to tolerate and accept their lifestyle, we may not agree with it, or participate in it, but live and let live.

Most Christians today do not know what the Bible says about the subject, or they feel that in today's world we need to be tolerant of everything and let people do what they want and not to bother them with the bad news of what will be their eternal punishment.

How can you deny love? It's perfectly natural. It's been around for eons, in every culture. It's even present in the animal kingdom.

For the same reason that people accept heterosexuality.
