Since everyone here is talking about Christains I feel I should post what the bible says about this.

Romans 1:26-27

Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with out men, and recieved in themselfs the due penaly for their perversion.

Here are a few things I think Christians should take out of this verse that most do not. First God gave them over to their sins. God let them become like they are, in fact he intended them to do so. Second they have already recieved their due penalty for their perversion. It is not our duty as christians to punish people who are gay, the bible does not tell us to do that. What the bible does tell us to do is love them as ourselfs. Love the sinners says the bible. Jesus came down for the sinners not the righteous. Perhaps those of you who call yourselfs Christians should consider that before you are so quick to be bigots.
