I grapple with this as a Christian.

A sin is a sin is a sin.

A hetero person who commits adultery repeatedly is just as sinful as a gay person who has gay sex, from a purely Biblical perspective.

But if you say that gay sex is a sin, then this person can never express their love to the person they love. That seems ... wrong.

Unlike some complete puritans, I think God made sex pleasurable for humans on purpose. Read the Song of Solomon.. very erotic (sometimes silly for today's language).  A gay person should be able to express their love just as  much as a hetero person.

IMO, love and fidelity are more important than what gender the person you are having sex with.

Jesus actually never talked about homosexuality. He talked about love.  The verse about a man and woman in marriage is in context of the culture where a marriage was between a man and a woman.  In that culture and society, there was no "marriage" per se between people of the same gender.

He condemned infidelity and sexual immorality.  The words "sexual immorality" could easily mean "sex outside of marriage", and indeed, many conservative Christians see it that way.

How many of us had sex before we got married?  If gay sex is committing "sexually immorality", then a lot of Christians have committed the same type of "sexual immorality" sin.[/quote]
