Question Homosexuality.  You don't HAVE to accept it!!  Due your own research; make your own decision.
Homosexuality is men being sexually and emotionally attracted to men, and women being sexually and emotionally attracted to women.
When it comes to homosexuality, there
seems to be two opposing views.  One
view decrees homosexuality is
abhorrent and must be shunned
personally and socially.  The other side
insists that homosexuality is genetically
determined and should be embraced
and encouraged.  

Unfortunately, both of these opposing
views can be found within the church
.

with same-sex attraction and/or
homosexual behavior, then neither
point of view is relevant, and you
probably have
