Absolutely! I am one, in fact I posted a question about this just yesterday. Search for "Are you ready for real Christian love?"
There's a wondeful sermon online that addresses this. See link below.
My wife and I found a wonderful welcoming and affirming Presbyterian church in our area. They belong to the More Light Presbyterian (MLP) network (link below), a national group of Presbyterian congregations across the nation who welcome gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenders (GLBT) into their communities. The minister of our church performed our wedding ceremony and the whole congregation is very welcoming and very mixed. Str8, GLBT, families, elderly, etc. A real cross section of our community.
I've also included a link to a website called family acceptance and it's about a Christian family and their path to acceptance of their gay son. Very enlightening.
Peace and love.

Yes .chrsitains are christains cause they were bathatised into the faith and or at lest thats why Iam.pluse no one can choose what they are. some people would think u cant be a christian and a homsexual will i think they are partly right but its like there are lesbians and gays and bisexuals who decoverd that were that way before they even tryed homosexual sexual behaver. there fore the ones who decovers that there that way and had never try homosexual acts before was a christian who didnt act on homosexual desires yet once they act on it I dont know if they are a chrsiatin or not,they might not be based on some thing i read online. but keep in mind its the homsexual actions that goes agasint the bible not the sexual or emoticonall attraction. some bisexual people dont act on homsexual desires so are they not a christen because of the homsexual desire of course they are a christian. we gets judge by god based on our actions not our feelings.
every thing i said expect the first word is ment for the perosn who said people are going to u can but u cant be acriahstn and a homsexual its a sin.

"Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals...1Cor 6:9"
lanashantel - How can a book written thousands of years ago have the word "homosexual" in it, when that very word did not exist until it was coined by Sigmund Freud?
Of course the Bible condemns Gays. It has been mistranslated and misused horrendously by bigoted Straight people to keep us down. Enough with the BS!! This is why I hate religion so much. It's a weapon constantly used against us. Love God and Jesus and all, but please, throw all these religions away.

My mom used to attend a Christian church that served the gay community. Many of the members had been disowned from their families and previous churches, so it was a way for them to come together and not feel judged.
And CreoleGirl: All sin. Does that mean no one can be a Christian, including yourself? Be careful, because whatever judgment you place on other people, God will certainly place on you.

Yes.
And anyone who tells you different has forgotten that "all have sinned, and fallen short of the glory of God", when they start ranting about you being an abomination as if they were Christ and without sin, and therefore qualified to take God's place as the judge of you. You're not bad or unChristian because you are gay; you are made in God's image just like everyone else.
The Episcopalian, Quaker, and UUC denominations all welcome gays and lesbians, as do the Unity churches and the Metropolitan Community churches which are GLBT-centered.

Yes i would say they do.
I am also a Christian!! =) And while (im sorry because i know you are getting enough of it but not sorry that i believe it) I think it is wrong to be gay I don't think it is AT ALL the deciding factor!!!!!!!!
Yes i believ it is a sin to be gay but I am pridefull and to God both of those mean that we fall short of His glory and the punishment is death- HOWEVER Jesus died for us so if we except him we are forgiven =) This means that i also believe you can go to heaven. ..... but i still think being gay is actualy lust
Im reall really really glad you asked this question =)
i am a human and am not in the position to judge who is and who is not a Christian, but in theory i would assume you can be a Christian.
*i wish ppl would really think this stuff through

While I am not one, I absolutely, positively know for a fact that there are homosexual Christians.
Christianity is composed of all sorts of people: people who like to take things that are not theirs; people who like to tell things that are not true, or tell things that are true purposely to hurt or hinder someone else; and people whose sexual motor gets revved by all sorts of things--men, women, boys, girls, neighbors they are not married to, even animals. Me, I just robbed my boss of five minutes to tell you this.
Christianity recognizes humans as sinners, people who here and there, now and then, purposely or unintentionally, do things, live their lives in ways that God does not want. Accepting Christ for who He was and what He did, however, God offers to ignore the faults and failings and accept you into the family. Once in, you must make a more conscious effort to behave appropriately. Still, He doesn't automatically disinherit a baby that spits up food, fills a diaper, or cries at inconvenient times. If you live as a Christian you do well even if your desires (look up the word temptation) are not the heterosexual norm. If you live as a homosexual that merely goes to church, then drop the Christian label. If I bed down a woman who lives next door, whom I am not married to, and you (I'm presuming you are a man) bed down another man--we both have sinned and are equally wrong before God.

yeah they do...you are not alone so don't feel ashamed of yourself or feel that you are a contradiction because you are not. There are many gay christians out there.
sometimes they are living the christian life better than those self professed homo-hating or homo-fearing people who call themselves christians and call those who are gay and christian an oxymoron when them in themselves live as oxymorons by not accepting all of Christ's people and by judging them and condemning them as if they were God themselves.
