For example, would this Senator Craig guy engage in unhealthy behavior like he did if he didn't try to repress his sexuality for most of his life?
Same example with Foley and Haggard.

I cannot imagine having to deny my true feelings because of some idiotic religious guilt. It must be very damaging to a person's psyche.
Ignorance spouted by a bigot like richardson above me is what Christianity is for some.

Actually, there are people who engage in illegal actions during sex, just to make the sex more exciting.
We don't know if Craig fits this condition, but he might, and if that is true, then he would attempt risky public sex whether gay or straight.
But it's also true, to address your point, that many closeted married men act out in sexually risky ways because they lack opportunities for more sexually intimate or fulfilling forms of sex.

I am not going to pretend to know what goes through someones mind who struggles with their sexual propensities. I do believe that God is the master problem solver and can help anyone make sense of their life. Whether that person chooses to listen to God or not, it seems to me that such a life is prone to encounter problems even beyond the struggles people have that aren't gay.

it is a sad state of affairs when the only way to judge a person, is based on their sexual orientation.
is that all a person really is, does not their good, or bad works count?
doesn't their life outside of the bedroom count for anything.
there seems to be a great division, between those that have a difference in lifestyle, or sexual preference,
why can't we accept a person for WHO their are and not judge them for what that do in the bedroom.

You expose yourself to all kinds of senseless risks when you deviate from God's standard for sex whether you believe you do or not.
