Only a satanic faith could say God loves something that the Old Testament says is a sin which deserves the death penalty.

It will only prove that whoever rubber stamps the sin of others will be responsible for themselves and those they lead into that sin. They will be held to an even higher standard as leaders. How far we've fallen that they have compromised their belief in God and exchanged it for a worldly belief system.

Well sin is sin, but if you think you are going to heaven because of your good works you are going to be disappointed. I don't know what your life is like but I wouldn't expect it to come up to God's standards.
Thats why the Saviour Jesus was provided for us. His blood atones for sins.
Christian believers are gradually purified from current sins through reading the Word, and through the power of the Holy Spirit (that is God's Spirit). [Romans 1-8 explains all; but tough to grasp]
You are seriously off in describing Protestantism as satanic; that shows to me that devils are at play in your life. Catholicism and other mainstream christian denominations are also not satanic - they are God's hope for saving men from judgement.

The Old Testamant also says that a child born out of wedlock will be cursed for - what? - 7 generations. And let's not even get started on the social/cultural changes that have occurred since Biblical times.
Discussions like this are one of the reasons I'm happy that this isn't my Holy Book.

Not all Protestants are in support of Homosexuality. Moreover, it merely shows how weak humans are and how easy it is to compromise our faith beliefs.
Interesting, the RC Church's whole ecumenical movement is based upon compromising their beliefs. The RC Catholic church I grew up in offers annual courses on Buddhism, Spiritualism, and Eastern Mysticism.
Praise Jesus I'm not Catholic any more. My Savior drew me out of THAT false system.

Protestantism is very broad. I only know of some United churches doing this. most of the protestant (baptist, pentecostal, etc) abhor it.
and for the record, anything approved of by Satan is considered satanic in a way. and we don't burn witches because this is a time of grace, where anyone can get saved. we'd be shortening their chances, not acting like the police do.

God said that homosexuality is an abomination. God does not change. He will always say that, whether anyone else agrees, or not. Our opinion doesn't count because we are not God, He is, so HIS judgment counts. Peace.

Other things the Bible says you should be put to death for:
Kill People for Working on the Sabbath
"The LORD then gave these further instructions to Moses: 'Tell the people of Israel to keep my Sabbath day, for the Sabbath is a sign of the covenant between me and you forever. It helps you to remember that I am the LORD, who makes you holy. Yes, keep the Sabbath day, for it is holy. Anyone who desecrates it must die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community. Work six days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest. I repeat: Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.' (Exodus 31:12-15 NLT)
Kill Sons of Sinners
"Make ready to slaughter his sons for the guilt of their fathers; Lest they rise and posses the earth, and fill the breadth of the world with tyrants. (Isaiah 14:21 NAB)
Death for Cursing Parents
1) If one curses his father or mother, his lamp will go out at the coming of darkness. (Proverbs 20:20 NAB)
2) All who curse their father or mother must be put to death. They are guilty of a capital offense. (Leviticus 20:9 NLT)
Death for Adultery
"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife, both the man and the woman must be put to death. (Leviticus 20:10 NLT)
Death to Followers of Other Religions
"Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed. (Exodus 22:19 NAB)
Kill Nonbelievers
"They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)
Kill the Entire Town if ONE Person Worships Another God:
"Suppose you hear in one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you that some worthless rabble among you have led their fellow citizens astray by encouraging them to worship foreign gods. In such cases, you must examine the facts carefully. If you find it is true and can prove that such a detestable act has occurred among you, you must attack that town and completely destroy all its inhabitants, as well as all the livestock. Then you must pile all the plunder in the middle of the street and burn it. Put the entire town to the torch as a burnt offering to the LORD your God. That town must remain a ruin forever; it may never be rebuilt. Keep none of the plunder that has been set apart for destruction. Then the LORD will turn from his fierce anger and be merciful to you. He will have compassion on you and make you a great nation, just as he solemnly promised your ancestors. "The LORD your God will be merciful only if you obey him and keep all the commands I am giving you today, doing what is pleasing to him." (Deuteronomy 13:13-19 NLT)
Kill Women Who Are Not Virgins On Their Wedding Night
"But if this charge is true (that she wasn't a virgin on her wedding night), and evidence of the girls virginity is not found, they shall bring the girl to the entrance of her fathers house and there her townsman shall stone her to death, because she committed a crime against Israel by her unchasteness in her father's house. Thus shall you purge the evil from your midst. (Deuteronomy 22:20-21 NAB)
And this is just the tip of the iceburg. Sounds like you have a lot of work ahead of you.

You start with the false assumption that there are non-false religions.
