because its not seen in our society as often and also its very "unnatural" its just not a natural attraction most people have.
But most people are hypocrites--even me (but i'm trying)--- when it comes to homosexual sins.... A sin is a sin is a sin is a sin.
Whether your in a homosexual relationship or your lying its all a sin and its all wrong but we as christians shouldn't hate or Judge people for being homosexual, nor should we for them lying. We should love everyone.
We dont' have to approve of what they do or support it. but we shouldn't hate them either. We should just show our love and try to encourage them on the right path.
No one was ever helped by being hated.
___________
And also I really admire that you think That homosexuality is wrong--when thats how you feel. your obviosuly trying to fight your lusts and i think thats awesome!!! don't give up! and keep fighting it! the devil is trying to attack you and don't let him in!!
In the bible we are told how to defend ourselves against Satans attack.
The key is to RESIST.
To resists is to not give in, not listen to, but to turn away. To refute!
Me and my freinds are praying for you!
God Bless! ^_^

Totalitarian, right-wing politics and religions ride on the backs of the people's cognitively trained fear of anything to do with sex or homosexuality among other things.
They spread vicious lies and insist it a choice to be gay but none can ever remember making a choice to be straight.
The only reason they say it is a choice is because the alternative puts their narrow-minded religious beliefs under the microscope.
The only other reason one could be gay is to be born like it and all Xians know that 'god' is a perfect god and doesn't make mistakes.
They conveniently forget the mental and physical deformities some people are born with although any genius or great artist has 'god-give' talents.
The xian's brain is a weirdly wired brain-stem that can't leap over the abyss of unknowing - it's either Goddidit or it's a Choice.
Get some counselling - you need an attitude shift in self-love and acceptance.
You need to stop listening to people with no clue about anything outside their extremely limited version of xianity.

So you believe that you are just WRONG? That you, without choosing to act WRONGLY, are still 'afflicted'? Personally, i think that whatever you were born with is natural - how can you deny yourself in life when you'll never be able to change who you are? I have plenty of gay guy mates, and they are amongst some of the loveliest guys i know - i dont think they're 'wrong' or suffering from some disease. I think you've got to learn to love yourself, rather than despise yourself - your friends aren't true friends if they make you feel bad about it. I blame this stupid Christian idea that homosexuality is COMPETELY WRONG, without exception.. If being homosexual is from birth, then didn't God create you so? Surely, if you hate being gay, you wouldn't choose it for yourself, so it means that God (assuming you're religious) mad you that way. Therefore, where's the wrong?

You were in all likely hood , based on the evidence and finding of scientist , born the way you are. As for your personal feelings about it , it is up to you weather or not it is alright to be a practicing homosexual or not. You are the decider of what is right and what is wrong in your reality. Don't let others make fun of you for your decisions. Find different friends. Ignore the people that abuse you , they aren't worth the time and effort. The only people you have to worry about when it comes to right and wrong in your reality is the police. If your right and wrong is clashing with thiers it may be time to look into that and see if you may need to reinterpret a few things. Right now though you don't have that problem. Your head is on straight enough.
As for the person who said AIDs was caused by Homosexuals. She/He has bean brainwashed. How HIV originally was transmitted from ape to man is unknown , but it would have bean very easy to do in those days. An accidental needle prick , cutting oneself on accident while doing an autopsy on a ape. How it came to be spread to humans no one knows for sure. Its tracing though is clearly through both heterosexual and homosexual contact along with accidental blood mixing. As in the case when it was first transmitted to humans. Along with drug abuse , with the use of unclean needles.

There's nothing wrong with being homosexual. Remember that the bible and most religions for that matter, condemn homosexuals because they don't procreate. It's the same with masturbation, your not supposed to spill your seed unless it's for the sole purpose of conceiving a child. I'm straight and I don't want children so my sex life would be viewed as sinful as well. Don't worry about the damn Christian conservatives. They have their heads up their a$$.

First of all, I'm gay and I don't believe you're gay. I think it's a ruse you're using in order to condone homophobia.
In answer to your question, people are so harsh about homosexuality, because it brings in money to the anti-gay, pro-bigotry organizations which make much of their income off of causing misery in the lives of gay Americans. Those organizations would go bankrupt if they tried to promote opposition to premarital sex. As long as they can make a buck off of homophobia, that will be their Super Sin to exploit.

Because fundamentalist Christians have used the gay marriage and abortion issues to gain power. They don't dare attack heterosexuals who commit adultery, pre-marital sex, fornication, oral, or even anal sex because almost all of their members engage in those things. Same with divorce, which is just as much of a sin according to the bible.
What you have to keep in mind is that the right-wing Christians don't really care about people sinning. They only care about gaining more power and money.

Even if you are struggling with homosexual feelings, that is no reason for anyone to treat you badly. As Christians, we believe homosexuality is a sin. But we also sin. No one should be judged for their sins by anyone, except by God. The homosexual feelings you are having are Satan's way of trying to tempt you into sin. But you are stronger than him and can resist the temptation. Pray to God for the strength to overcome these feelings.
Corinthians 10:13 -- No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.
And yes, God condemns premarital sex, or any sex outside of marriage between husband and wife.
1 Corinthians 7:9 -- But if they can't control themselves, they should go ahead and marry. It's better to marry than to burn with lust.

People are homophobic. Many of these people come to faith in Jesus Christ. Then they confuse their homophobia with the prompting of the Holy Spirit and make it the unforgivable sin. This is plain silly. I could go to my church and tell them I broke all ten commandments this week and they would say. "Oh that's ok, we all do it. Try to do better ok,. We will pray for you." Now if I told them I was homosexual they would quickly exclude me from any activity pending excommunication. It is simply homophobia.

People are bigots and they want to deflect the blame from themselves by alienating others.
But why do you think that being gay is wrong? Why should it be an affliction or something you suffer? It is normal and good to have sexuality, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with loving another person regardless of their gender.
I am so sorry that you are being treated poorly. That is very wrong of them and it really sucks.

"I suffer from homosexuality or same sex lust" I have never heard it put that way. Sounds to me like you are homosexual and are feeling guilty about it due to your religious views. You need to either get over that guilt or have a very stressful life.
