Yes.
Created in the image of the one God and equally endowed with rational souls, all men have the same nature and the same origin. Redeemed by the sacrifice of Christ, all are called to participate in the same divine beatitude: all therefore enjoy an equal dignity.
The Catholic Church believes there is nothing sinful about being homosexual. But homosexuals like all unmarried people are called to celibacy.
The Church specifically says that homosexuals "must be accepted with respect, compassion, and sensitivity. Every sign of unjust discrimination in their regard should be avoided."
Here is the text of the document, On the Pastoral Care of Homosexual Persons (1986): http://www.newadvent.org/library/docs_df86ho.htm
With love in Christ.

The Catholic Church has already admitted that 30-40% of its priests are gay, which means 50%. The Pope says that new priests will be asked if they are gay before their ordination in order to eliminate gays in the rectories, but every one knows that gay men will say "No" in order to get in.

Yes they do. So do a lot of non-denominational churches. Of course they would prefer you weren't practicing, but they don't have a problem like say, the Babtists do.

Its crap philosophy that I don't see too many Catholics follow. They pull the whole idea of "As long as they don't act on ti". W_T-F? Honestly would the pro-homosexuality Catholics step up and challenge their "False Teachers"!

Heaven wont, unless they repent of their sin and turn from their ways. Bible says its an abomination to God.

It is my understanding that they would be permitted to come into the church, but would not be able to receive sacraments.

No they don't accept gay people.
They chose to protect pedophile priests instead.
