Yes and No.
The Salvation Army, which receives nearly $300 million a year in U.S. government money, does not discriminate in delivering its services but advocates against imposing "the category of sexual orientation to the list of anti-discrimination protections" by states and cities as well as against "equal benefits to domestic partnership". The Salvation Army does not hire people who are known to be gay and fires those who are gay when legally allowed to do so.
The Salvation Army states "scripture forbids sexual intimacy between members of the same sex. The Salvation Army believes, therefore, that Christians whose sexual orientation is primarily or exclusively same-sex are called upon to embrace celibacy as a way of life" on it's website.

confident that's a hundred and ten% genuine! i became into so pissed when I found out. I informed the guy exterior of Michael's for the period of christmas that became into rining the bell "do you recognize that the individuals you're volunteering for is against gay rights?" and he appeared at me and pronounced "Uh, confident" and that i gave him the main distugsted seem, and pronounced "how are you able to be an emblem of peace love and brotherhood at christmas time once you think of that gays are unworthy of such straight forward human rights as to love eachother? Youre a unfavorable guy or woman and that i'm hoping some baby steals your donation bucket and buys gay porn" (or something to that consequence, I dont keep in mind my good wording). Btw, the Salvation military additionally discriminates against non-Christians.

All Christian and Theological organisations do not endorse any form of sexual deviance, including and especially homosexuality. Yet I am sure that the Salvation Army are the only denomination to state it so forthright.

Darksong made a good point... they don't discriminate in their charitable outreach programs... but I think if a person wanted to become a member in their church or organization they would have to either denounce any personal homosexual behavior, or become a hypocrite and lie about it.
Don't ask - Don't tell
