the same way my best friend, and all his family view me, as a normal person, just that god made me with a different sexual orientation.
don't judge me bad because i have one thing that's different about me, but don't give me special treatment, i want to be judged on the same basis that everyone else is, and have the same rights/equality.

In an un-stereotypical way.
And by stereotypical, I don't mean that Christians should learn that not all gay men have limp wrists and talk with a lisp. I mean that Christians need to meet individual homosexuals and learn that we are not all cynics. Unfortunately, some gay people ARE cynics. Some do not care at all about society's rules nor any traditional moral values. But that is true as well of some heterosexuals. The more homosexuals you meet, the more you'll realize that some gay people really do care and are not cynics. And that will help you to realize that homosexuals are not people who are merely giving in to "temptation."

Like a christian should. With kindness, respect,love...Why would you treat a gay person any different than any other person. The bible doesn't tell us to treat certain people differently. It says "do unto others as you would have them do unto you". You want to be treated a certain way...well then treat others that way. I choose to treat all with kindness and have found that that is what comes back to me.

To be honest I don't care how I'm viewed. But when one chooses to speak/interact with me then it needs to be with respect.

I can't speak for them, but my guess would be that they want to be viewed as human beings, because they are.

As others have said here just like human beings because that is what they are. They are no different than you and me.

At this point: From a distance. The fundies have made it clear that I am hated, and that they want to destroy me. So your question is analogous to asking what Jews want from Nazis.

Like regular people. Most already do a good job.

the same way they view any other Christian...as a lot of us ARE Christian. It shouldn't matter our orientation, race, culture....or even religion. we are all as God created us....we are all human beings!
