No some of us do not condemn homosexuals. That said, we do however, point out that scripture condemns the acts of homosexuality.
Rom 1:26For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
VILE -- MEANS loathsome, disgusting, unpleasant, and objectionable.
Rom 1:27And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Most homosexuals are nice and kind people who don't wear their persuasion on their sleeves.
I will reiterate, if you don't like God's word then take it up with God.

Christians as individuals are human beings just like everybody else, and not all of us believe that homosexuality is wrong. I personally don't have any problem with it. I'm a Christian, and I'm not homophobic, and I don't believe that gay people are going to Hell. In the Old Testament is specifically states that homosexuality is a sin, but keep in mind that in the New Testament, Christ gave his life to forgive us of our sins. The Christian belief is based on forgiveness, and the belief that God can forgive you for anything you do.

Homosexuality is a Sin, and is Condemned in both the OT, and the NT. Individuals trapped in that way of life are not condemned by Christians, but by God. He would not call it a Sin if they were born that way, it is a choice.

I am a Christian and I do not condemn anyone for the way they live. In the Bible it says, judge not lest ye be judged. What ever other people do is between them and the Lord. I have to answer to God my my own life, not the lives of others.

Only the sinless can condemn, and only Christ is sinless, so no, I don't condemn, I have my owns sins to worry about. I don't give them a hard time, and I support their right to marry. I figure their not being allowed to marry isn't gonna make them go straight, so why not?

Most of them do, they just won't come out and admit it. They'll say stuff like "I disapprove of the lifestyle but I have friends that are gay." Bullsh*t. If I was gay, I wouldn't want to hang around a person who claimed to be my friend but was against homosexuality so strongly that they felt the need to ban same-sex marriage and civil unions completely. Yeah, some friends.

I don't I Try to Tell what Jesus Said to Tell'm (or Anybody Else).
HE Loves You.
Died on the Cross so you can get Your Spirit Receated.
Religion cannot Recreate you.
Doing good cannot Recreate you.
Only the Creator (Jesus, in a Human Form too) can Save (Recreate) you.
Hope this helps.
Ditto...............

I do not condemn them just like I do not condemn anyone else because of their differences. It was said, "Hate the sin but love the sinner." That is the basis of how Christians should respond to all situations, not just homosexuality.

Most do, but this anti-gay Southern Baptist preacher might not be condemning gays as much these days -- not since his arrest for trying to hire an undercover police officer for sex:
