That's what I want to know.
My own religion, Catholicism, teaches that all sexual relations, except between a man and a woman who are married, not using birth control, is sinful.
So MOST sexual stuff, including masturbation and oral sex, is sinful.
That obviously includes homosexuality as well.
I would assume most other Christian denominations have similar rules.
So a Christian church that ACCEPTS homosexuals and says YOU DON"T HAVE TO CHANGE, is not being truthful to Christian teachings.
However, the state of being homosexual is not sinful, it is only sinful to ACT ON IT.
The Catholic Church teaches that homosexuals are called to be abstinent.
Is that a teaching that any homosexual can accept?
